Pros

“Facility view allows us to see an overview of our full brewery operations, as well as peak at inventory levels in all sites quickly and easily.”
NA

Nick A.

Strategy Manager

“We mostly use Ekos for inventory management, production planning, invoicing, and reporting.”
CG

Carli G.

Business Manager

“Pulling reports is a snap allowing us to see where product is going, how much is moving, and prices from start to finish.”
BT

Benjamin T.

Operations Manager

Cons

“There is no customer credit (balance) managent, and it is difficult to management payment across sales orders. Although the system has price rules but it doesn't our this simple requirement: setting up a minimum price for a product and any sell price under the minimum can not sold.”
JT

John T.

Software developer

“In fact before Fishbowl, we would consistently oversell items we didn't even have on hand because the paper records always got messed up. But since Fishbowl keeps track of all the movement of those parts/products, I no longer have to call upset customers telling them their orders have to be canceled.”
BS

Brion S.

Lead Product and Design Manager

“I had two cases where our data was messed up due to mistake on our end and I contacted Fishbowl and the support team was able to solve our issues in timely manner.”
JT

John T.

Software developer

Cons

“Some of the asset tracking aspects are a bit difficult to use, if you put in an asset and realize you made a mistake, it is not easy to alter an asset that was mistakenly inputted.”
SM

Sarah M.

Brewery Manager

“It can be frustrating when there's a hard stop that keeps you from being able to complete a task, but in the end, I'm grateful it won't let you move forward so mistakes are found and corrected before they've been forgotten or gotten out of control.”
MK

Megan K.

CEO

“Unwarranted cost increases. While Ekos is still lower than many other offerings, to just increase pricing cause it’s needed from their business standpoint is frustrating.”
