GetApp offers objective, independent research and verified user reviews. We may earn a referral fee when you visit a vendor through our links.
Our commitment
Independent research methodology
Our researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Verified user reviews
GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.
Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.
How GetApp ensures transparency
GetApp lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. GetApp is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

“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
“Manufacturing has BOM's, Work Orders, Manufacture Orders, and has options for custom MO's as well as reverse MO's.”
AB
Andrew B.
General Manager
“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
Pros
“Integrations have also been smooth, with solid compatibility across many of the popular eCommerce tools we rely on, which cut down significantly on manual data entry and syncing headaches.”
RS
Robbie S.
Operations Manager
“The Item Master has been incredibly helpful when it comes to tracking physical inventory, both nettable and non-nettable, without actually having to visiting the warehouse every day.”
Terry L.
Community Engagement Manager, In-Kind Donations
“The interface is intuitive, and the centralized data helps reduce manual processes and improve visibility across departments.”
WF
William F.
Cyber Team Lead
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
“It’s frustrating that common methods aren’t supported, and the lack of seamless billing integration makes managing subscriptions and transactions more time-consuming than it should be.”
JC
Jeremy C.
Estimator and purchaser
“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
Cons
“The aesthetic can come off as very utilitarian.”
MK
Marion K.
Inventory Coordinator
“Customizability for user errors.”
JC
Joseph C.
Warehouse Lead and Quality Assurance Manager
“Sitting here writing this, I realize that there really isn't anything that stands out in my mind as a problem with Kechie.”
