1 / 3

Highly capable and flexible, with a learning curve.

Pros

  • Multi-channel inventory sync: automatic depletion and restoration of inventory with sales and refunds, syncing back to all your channels.
  • Sales order and purchase order management: keep track of things you buy and sell while simultaneously keeping your inventory accurate.
  • Custom upload and export formats: you can make ecomdash work with almost any platform by creating your own formats to upload or export your data.

Cons

  • The platform is highly capable, which means it can also be confusing and there is a learning curve. Thankfully they have a pretty extensive knowledge base.
  • They integrate natively with a select number of 3rd party services, but there are some notable large companies missing from the list that integrate with most other platforms. More integrations would be highly appreciated.
  • Pricing is based on the volume of orders, with a fairly low threshold for the cheapest plan. I'd like to see more features added to the plans that cost more so you don't just feel like you're being charged for having more customers.

Return on Investment

  • By reducing the overselling of products, we have saved time on customer service and inventory adjustments.
  • Customer service at ecomdash is very helpful and knowledgable, which saves us time lost in learning things or fixing issues.

Good value for the money

Pros

  • Manage inventory. Comprehensive management and many features.
  • Fast syncing. Inventory updates are pushed out almost immediately.
  • Pricing. For the price, ecomdash is a good value.

Cons

  • User interface. The whole thing feels clunky.
  • Knowledge-base. Their searchable knowledge base isn't really all that helpful. It feels like it was written as an afterthought.

Return on Investment
