Pros

  • All the data are genuine and the pricing is very good. For those who wish to try out ImportYeti premium feature, I do recommend to do so.

  • I get the scoop on where the big guys in my industry are sourcing their products...along with all the data I need to get the full scope in a super easy to navigate and user-friendly interface.

  • I wholeheartedly recommend it for its exceptional simplicity and powerful performance.

  • I really am grateful for this information. When you are a beginner brand, you want to be able to work with manufacturers who have experience and quality to ensure the success of your brand.

Cons

  • Was at first difficult to understand and sort thru.

  • I don't like how there isn't much contact information for some supply companies.

  • The first time I hear about ImportYeti was a shock.

  • Bit hard to navigate sometimes. You need to use it a bit before you understand everything.

"Great Business Intelligence Tool"

Pros: I use this tool to better understand my competition and their supply structure. In addition it helps to analyze potential patent infringements and is simple to use and the drill down and cross references make it simple and straight forward to use.

Cons: I would love to be able to set an alert for certain companies and get a notification if new data is in the system.

"Best Container Import/Export Software Available Today!"

Overall: I have only the best experience with this software. It works great and I use it on a regular basis.

Pros: You can search and find any import going anywhere with a great and fast search engine built right into the website at super fast lightening speed.

Cons: Some the addresses where the containers are going are not 100% accurate. Like missing unit numbers at the address or company spelling name may be slightly off.

Overall: I really like it because it boosts my work efficiency. It’s straightforward—just search, and you get the information you need. It’s incredibly easy to use.

"Excellent tool to find reliable manufacturers"

Overall: I’ve found ImportYeti to be an incredibly useful tool. As I started my brand, I needed to find reliable manufacturers, and this platform made that process much easier. The detailed data helped me connect with factories that truly fit my needs. It’s not just about finding suppliers; it’s about finding the right ones. I really appreciate how straightforward and informative the platform is.

Pros: The platform has a huge database, which made it easier for me to find manufacturers that actually fit what I was looking for. The insights are really detailed, like seeing shipment histories and product info. It saved me a ton of time and provieded me with super usefull info.

Cons: Some of the more detailed features require a subscription. After you find the company its hard to get the contact info at least in the free version.

"ImportYeti is my secret weapon! "

Overall: The application is incredibly easy to use, even for the average user. In the rare even that I've needed support, they have always been very prompt and incredibly helpful.

Pros: ImportYeti is my secret weapon! I get the scoop on where the big guys in my industry are sourcing their products...along with all the data I need to get the full scope in a super easy to navigate and user-friendly interface. I can't recommend this tool enough.

Cons: I have yet to find anything that I do not like about ImportYeti.

"Redditor to the Rescue and what an awesome experience and interface and service"

Overall: The UI and UX were really good, it's simple and straight forward with little to no fluff and filled with tremendous insights and details via data

Pros: 1. The immense amount of data one can access and the number of filtering options is amazing. 2. It provides detailed information about the company you seek information about 3. Amazing option to search by hsn code, product description and other

"Satisfactory free to use platform"

Overall: So far so good. It has done the job. Just takes a little longer deciphering through all of the overwhelming data.

Pros: That it’s free. It throws a lot of data at your and has a huge data base.

Cons: I find that the structure of the data thrown at the computer monitor is a little overwhelming. I know the task would be hard but if they could find a way to make that less overwhelming that would be great!

"One of the Best research platforms. (Period)"

Overall: 10/10 would highly recommend for the in-depth research and analytics.

Pros: It’s free to use, hosts tons of data and allows for in-depth research and supply chain analysis of virtually any company of value.

Cons: No direct way to purchase a premium plan, must contact customer service, which is amazing, btw.

"ImportYeti"

Pros: Highly recommend the ImportYeti website. Very impressive product in the sheer availability of data from the universe of the US bills of lading data provided and a lot of the data is summarized on the website for free with fantastic visualizations. The API feature allows everyone to quickly subset and research relevant data in bulk, which is great for more systematic studies. Some additional data cleaning that the team did (e.g. the provision of HS codes, addresses etc) helps a lot in research applications. The team is incredibly helpful and supportive with the product -- [sensitive content hidden] was very generous with his time to walk me through the data intricacies and how to use API, which I found incredibly helpful.

Cons: I am very much looking forward to the company expanding further beyond the US imports to other countries in the future. The work this team is doing is fantastic!

"Review from a new user"

Pros: I've only recently started using it for research and from my limited usage I can see the vast applicability and relevance it has in several domains and sectors. The entire platform is very user-friendly and visually appealing while not compromising on quality in the least. More than anything the [sensitive content hidden] will personally respond to any feedback or suggestions you share, which is really a pleasant surprise. Great value for money, even the free trial offers a fair amount of features. Altogether, it's a no brainer utilizing Import Yeti and I would highly recommend to any and everyone!

Cons: Try make it expand to more than the US market. I recognize this is a fundamental shift from the existing data but it will really expand the scope and usage of Import Yeti to an even broader audience.
