Pros

“However, after I was brought on board into the company, I was able to connect with Fishbowl Support for a retraining with our GM and was pleasantly surprised with the support team in walking us through explicit scenarios to ensure that we make the most of the software we currently leverage.”
MB

Meredith B.

Internal Process and Operations Manager

“Fishbowl is an easy solution that allows us to track inventory, manufacturing, and order fulfillment from the most basic parts and components, to finished and shipped product.”
MK

Michael K.

Senior Production and Logistics Manager

“I would like more granularity and data analytics capabilities, for example, to drill down to individual raw material costs per sales order over time. ”

Pros

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

“We were not able to link their system to our QuickBooks accounting software and online store (Shopify) to pull location of inventory available or shipping quotes prior to full sync.”
