We are a start-up manufacturing company making glass doors and frames for the refrigeration industry. The founders have many years of experience in this industry and knew what type of software we needed. We reviewed at least five software companies and, when considering price and performance, Fishbowl was a perfect match. Our IT company had experience with the Quick Books side and our cost account to be has experience with Fishbowl. We are new purchasers and have not even received the software yet. However, the company personnel made a very impressive sales presentation and covered all of the trigger points that sold us. I will be able to give a much more detailed review once we have put the software through a thorough workout. If the software performs anywhere near the presentation it should satisfy our needs.

### "Great product!"

October 29, 2018

5.0

Pros

The support team has been very helpful, the workflow is pretty intuitive and the reports included are great. The customer representative helped us get set up and gave us a few tutorials. Overall great product!

Cons

It's pretty pricey compared with some other inventory management software on the market but you get what you pay for. We had to purchase a couple extra reports that we thought should have been included with the product.

### "A great tool for inventory management"

January 21, 2021

4.0

Overall speaking, the software is an excellent tool for small businesses to manage and track their inventories.

Pros

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.

Cons

The customer service has some room for improvement and the report function is not very easy to use. Other than that, the software works great.

As a future shop owner checking out software companies I am very impressed with Fishbowl. They provide a free demo and followed up with phone calls and emails to answer any questions. That's excellent customer service. I'm seriously considering going with Liberty. I've checked out other similar companies who didnt even return my calls, and if they did, they were very unprofessional and rude. That shows me the customer service I can expect from them in the future, should I have problems. The Internet was also filled with complaints of the companies who provide terrible customer service. I suggest everyone to google "consignment Software" and read it. There is a lot of truth there. Thank you for being so professional and following up Fishbowl. You're a step above all your competitors.

### "Great software but not specific to food manufacturing"

December 13, 2018

3.0

Pros

It is a great software and has many features. It is user friendly and customer support is great. The trial period was very helpful and allowed us to practice on hand.

Cons

It is not specific to food manufacturing, so it made it a little difficult to adjust. There are other software systems in the market that are specific to food manufacturing and ability to add recipes and change them, which fishbowl did not have.

### "so far so good...need some more time on it"

June 6, 2018

5.0

It has brought excitement to our team and boosted morale of the whole company knowing we are taking steps to increase the efficiency of our processes

Pros

My favorite feature is how it caters to manufacturing with the ability to create BOM's by stages. Tracking this sort of process has been an internal struggle

Cons

We can't link to view POs of a part number while viewing in inventory. We research a lot of parts that way and it would be more convenient.

### "Good experience so far"

December 18, 2017

4.0

Inventory Management, tracking systems, and actualizing our COGS.

Pros

It is simple, easy to use, and has everything a inventory management software should have. This is a good ERP software for a business that is just starting up and getting their resources in order.

Cons

Report features are lacking and Fishbowl's simplicity can come back to bite you. Expect to buy some training for the modules within Fishbowl - some can be confusing.

We would love to have him out again and have him be our main rep for fishbowl. Thank you for sending him!

Pros

Amon was very nice, knowledgeable, informative. When something didn't work right, he figured it out quickly and was able to complete a lot of things we had not prepared for.

Cons

He was patient with our company which didn't have much of a data base built and helped as much as he could. He was positive and respectful the whole time.

June 21, 2018

Have been using Fishbowl for about 8 months now and when there is something I can't figure out or need help with the chat help is always there and does a good job.

Pros

The full features of descriptions, linking pictures etc of all the products we carry. The ability to link and customize product parts and descriptions. Also the flow between Sales orders picking and shipping.

Cons

Occasionally we have issues with Fishbowl Go on the hand held devices we use but for the most part its Great!

### "Customer Service"

August 14, 2018

2.0

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.

Pros

Tracking of inventory and inventory separation. Integration with QuickBooks......

Cons

not easy and straightforward to use on a day to day basis, I am sure it's a great product but just not a good fit for our business right now..

### "Fishbowl does not work well with Amazon and Volusion - also poor management"

January 16, 2015

1.0

We liked the sales rep who was prompt and professional. And then we got the software! From the start the software took a while to get installed and to a usable state. Once some inventory was uploaded, it was very cumbersome and hard to use. it took many steps to go from order status to order fulfilled status. We were sold this would simple and seamless order fulfillment with inventory management. It was not! It took many days to get set up. And it took many steps to get orders fulfilled. The software was very hard to use and did not provide the functions that were presented. PO batch printing, batch shipping, automated order closure and email sent to customer. All this was false in our environment. This does not work well with Amazon and Volusion.

### "One size fits all IMS"

September 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

This software can cover every single thing you can think of regarding Inventory Management System, without complex workarounds.

Cons

Users can't use the system right away, it will require some training before users can use the system efficiently. However, this is a good indicator of its program and how the users will need to have knowledge of managing inventory systems and apply it in the software.

### "Inventory for Manufacturing Company"

October 3, 2016

4.0

We have been using Fishbowl for the last three years as an inventory system for our manufacturing company. We like the program and have had minimal problems with it. This program is very user friendly and easy to navigate. We have had a few issues with inventory getting stuck in the system, but the support team has been very helpful, and usually has the problem taken care of within the day. Also, we recently upgraded and now the program takes a long time to open, but once it's up it seems to be fine.

February 22, 2017

Although we have yet to fully implement the full software suite, we absolutely love this product and has gone a long way into revamping our inventory processes. Efficiency is now at an all-time high.

Pros

What you see is what you get, there are no surprises and the staff is very friendly and attentive.

Cons

We needed more hands on help and less shared screen tutorials, but that's par for the course with many software companies these days.
