Fishbowl vs Katana Cloud Inventory Comparison

QuickBooks Enterprise

QuickBooks Desktop

NetSuite

Odoo 

QuickBooks Online Advanced

MRPeasy

I’ve used it while scanning in inventory, shipping invoices, and tracking shipments to other warehouses. 

Fishbowl is very convenient, effective, and efficient!

Quick and helpful

Fishbowl is a great for usage forecast and daily inventory management. I am in brewing industry so I can see the material usage forecast and I can plan my orders accordingly. 

Fishbowl capability

CSR was fantastic in helping us learn about the product and taking the time to listen to our issues/concerns. Even though we found out Fishbowl was not a great fit for us, it wasn't the fault of her. She's a very good asset to your company.

Customer Service

good software but I need unlimited inventory number

Fishbowl does not have, and never has had any limitations on numbers of items or transactions. A larger, more expansive feature list that confirms this can be found at https://www.fishbowlinventory.com/files/documents/fishbowl-warehouse-product-info-sheet.pdf. Fishbowl does offer two different versions of the award winning software; Fishbowl Warehouse and Fishbowl Manufacturing, but again - neither contains any limits on items or quantities. As the number of items is not capped in any way, there is no need for or options available for additional purchases to increase item limits. Please feel free to reach out to us at 800-774-7085 for help if you are in need of any training or assistance regarding use of the product.

FANTASTIC everyone is always knowledgeable and courteous

Fishbowl Review

During sales demo program does everything you need it to but once paid for good luck. training team could learn from sales team. Only integrates with Quickbook if all conditions are perfect. Not reliable to update daily. Waste of money.

Sales & Marketing Coordinator

They have done a wonderful job in taking care of us from learning to use it to just small mistakes here and there. The support is outstanding.

Purchasing Manager

It is very frustrating when you are in the middle of something to have to force close the program and start over. This happens to everyone in our company so it is not user error or a computer error.

Owner

Fishbowl is very user friendly, has great support, and great integrations with our other systems.

Warehouse Manager

Our company evaluated about half a dozen different inventory management systems for features, support, ease of operation, price, etc. Fishbowl was the hands down winner, and remains the champion.

Supply Chain and Operations Manager

If you need to improve your operations this system is great and its worth every penny.

Sales & Marketing Support

We have a repetitive problem with line items coming up as 0, which causes our orders to refuse to ship. It's time-consuming to repeatedly call to get them unstuck.

Director 

The Fishbowl Plug-in team specifically Jacobi Sardoni is great to work with as they focus on the problem, help you resolve it and educate you on the way. Over all very professional in their efforts.

Fishbowl is a simple but robust solution and meets our requirements from order entry and order fulfillment at our Headquarters and manufacturing facilities.

Office Manager

I like that there is a way to set multiple locations and easily transfer product from one location to another. Fishbowl Go makes it easy to perform certain tasks  without being at an actual computer.

President

Horrible Company, they use to be good now they are just completely useless.

Sales Engineer

It allows us manage the inventory in our warehouse and integrates with Quickbook pretty smoothly. It is user friendly and doesn't take much training before we can get started.

Ecom & Digital Consultant

Excellent customer support on integration project.

Administrative Support

The available functions are useful in managing inventory.

Senior Business Analyst

The modules are sensible and easy to navigate. It is easy to import existing location and inventory data into the system.

Very difficult to use for manufacturing such as selecting bill of material and etc.

Entering orders with this software is easy and intuitive.

Ecommerce manager

A knowledgeable support team and a WMS with many advanced features needed if an inventory management system.

We haven't seen the full value yet but hopefully, it will integrate with Quickbooks online with some modifications.
