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.

Pros
“There is a lot to learn, so be prepared for it to take some time to get used to, and to train others to use the system.”
RR
Rachel R.
Operations Manager
“It is easy to use and pretty easy to build the environment needed for our company and team and I love the reports.”
JG
Jax G.
Business Operations Administrator
“The control I have over every aspect of each rental, my products, the pricing, the photos. being able to just change the date of an event for a returning customer, instead of having to put in a whole new order.”
SG
Sandy G.
CEO
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

Software developer
Cons
“The demand of spare parts generated by jobs is based on the job status but doesn't coincide with reality (certain status generate demand when they shouldn't and vice versa)”

Purchasing Manager
“Unfortunately, any extra function (purchasing, stock management, sales, etc) seems to have been implemented without consulting professionals of the area to understand their needs.”

“This is the case even if the issue reported actively prevents work to be done and is detrimental to the company and its customers.”
