Capterra’s researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust.

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. Learn more.
Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software and service 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.

Small to mid sized import/export and distribution companies. Most of our customers are currently using QuickBooks and supplementing that with Excel Spreadsheets where QuickBooks falls short.
Aptean Distribution ERP is designed for medium to large consumer goods distributors and importers seeking to streamline operations, improve inventory management, and boost profitability.
The entire process was great, from the initial proposal to the implementation. While they had great standard features, they were pretty accommodating with specific customizations as well.
There is a steep learning curve when getting started with this software, worse if you're unused to the terms that VISCO uses for product movement.
Their support team is made up of quality people and you have to respect a company where the executive team is always willing to help out, even with just support. The team is accessible and responsive.
There is not one thing that i personally dislike about the product or the vendor.
It's very easy to maneuver and in comparison to other programs I've used in the past this is the best. If myself or any of my colleagues ever need assistance the customer service team is wonderful.
We made the mistake of thinking too broadly and ended up asking for some projects that we don't use.
HIGHLY recommend - your software greatly improved our ability to better control our inventory scheduling. And of course, I love the way you guys handle your business in dealing with the client.
Too much automation causes lot of errors and then have to call VISCO to fix it.
The advantages of apprise in my opinion are that it is easy to use. That is because the tabs are pretty dedicated to an individual function which makes it easy to learn.
It sometimes freezes and you could loose the work you are doing if it freezes.
If you sell into Walmart or any other EDI-heavy retailers, the EDI Transaction Manager will be of great benefit to your organization.
If you try to implement Apprise without the right expertise, you are setting your organization up for failure.
The customer service has been the same. Apprise is also very good at modifying their software to fit your specific processes and needs.
Sometimes it's difficult to find out all consequences.
Apprise is user friendly and easy to learn. Navigation of the system is easy as well.
UI: If you've seen screenshots, you'd know to stay away. Financials: No basic financials functionality (B/S, P&L, TB, A/R Aging, etc.).
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
