Pros The system is straightforward forward, easy to use. Great price for start-ups and larger companies. Support has always been outstanding in addressing any issues we encounter. Customized reports were built quickly too. Cons Some item fields needed to be customized that seemed like they should be standard ones. However, the development team at Zangerine is always very helpful and fast to reply.E-commerce side is starting to feel a little dated in design. If there were templates available for us to choose from and update that would be great. Review Source SM Samantha M. Operations Coordinator Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Works well for our film distribution company" December 9, 2022 5.0 The customer service is excellent. Not only because they are responsive, but they are able to do things like create a customized report which is not always possible with other systems. When I have made mistakes, the tech support team was able to help me resolve those issues. I have no complaints about Zangerine, only good things to say. Pros Invoicing with Zangerine is easy. Pulling sales reports is pretty easy. I like how I can edit fields on the products and inventory pages. If you need a custom report you can request that for a fee. I really like how I can adjust what columns I'm seeing on the orders or products page for example, by clicking the gear in the top right corner. Not sure how else to refer to that. Cons I don't necessarily understand these sections on the product inventory tab, but that could be a me thing, not a Zangerine thing. I primarily rely on the "Current stock qty" number.This is what I don't quite get:Total Purchase Qty: Committed Qty: Total Stock Available: Total Expected QTY: Review Source LC Lisa C. Photographer, etc. Furniture Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to Use" December 8, 2022 4.0 The program helped the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] of the company realize his goal of getting his company online to reach a broader audience. Pros I find it easy to import new products into the database. And to had choices. If I have questions, the Tech team is always willing to help me solve my dilemmas. Cons The Custom Fields page is sometimes hard to use Review Source EM Emily M. Warehouse Manager Furniture Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Efficient & Easy Onboarding" January 30, 2023 5.0 We found Zangerine to be a very efficient and effective solution for inventory management and e-commerce. Pros The software is user-friendly, making it easy for anyone on the team to learn and use it efficiently. I was worried that our warehouse team might struggle to learn a new program, but the training process was very practical. The inventory management features are robust and allow for seamless tracking of products and reordering points. The ability to scan barcodes, generate business reports, and price shipping labels makes it a one-stop solution for us. Cons The software offers light manufacturing features like kitting/assembly and BOM and material cost tracking, but if you're looking for a manufacturing application, it's probably not made for you. Alternatives considered [Fishbowl](https://www.capterra.com/p/123794/Fishbowl/) Reason for choosing Descartes Zangerine Zangerine was a lot more modern and up-to-date. It was cloud-based, and we just felt like we can trust the team. Switched from [QuickBooks Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/174984/QuickBooks-Enterprise/)[ShipStation](https://www.capterra.com/p/155621/ShipStation/)[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) We were using an accounting software and spreadsheets for inventory tracking. It was simply the wrong fit and we felt it more and more as the company was growing. Zangerine had a built-in shipping label feature, so we turned off ShipStation and saved ourselves around $200 a month there too. Review Source JS Jensen S. Director of Sales & Business Development Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Order and Inventory Management Platform" May 31, 2023 5.0 The experience has been great so far in working with the platform and the customer support has been the best experience I've had with any a like platforms. Pros The product is easy to use once you get used to the different features and capabilities of the platform. I like best that once a quote is generated, it can easily be converted to a Sales Order, and then to a Purchase order while keeping a link between all phases of the process, meaning I know which exact quote and sales order are linked to the purchase order etc. Cons I would like the option to customize the platform more based on our unique needs. Alternatives considered [NetSuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/135757/NetSuite/) Reason for choosing Descartes Zangerine The overall look and feel coupled with the features and capabilities, and the pricing model was a good fit. Switched from [Fishbowl](https://www.capterra.com/p/123794/Fishbowl/) The platform seems outdated and the customer support was almost nonexsistant Review Source AG Alex G. Operations manager Automotive Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Freedom brothers’s review" January 12, 2023 5.0 Having a POS and inventory control all in one that also has the potential to make routes Pros Matrix for customers is easy to adjust and the reports that break down COG and profit is excellent Cons I would like to have access to different types of reports, or at least options to be able to customize reports easier.

Director Machinery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Using the software on a daily basis" June 12, 2020 5.0 We use Zangerine primarily to manage our B2B website and inventory specs. This mostly has helped us speed up our quoting and sales processes. The online chat option they have to talk to their support team from the dashboard is one of my favorite things. Pros Having a central dashboard to manage back-office and the e-commerce side of the business, and the quote management feature which saves us time in processing them and keeping track. Cons They always had the Quickbooks online integration, but they used to not have automatic integration with Quickbooks desktop. But they finally released that recently. Switched from [QuickBooks Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/174984/QuickBooks-Enterprise/) To get the sales process online with B2B eCommerce. Review Source Response from Descartes Systems Group June 17, 2020 Thanks Ellie! We are always glad to hear from you and proud to support Accutek's growth. JK Joshua K. owner Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Replaced our SAP Business 1 ERP software" July 6, 2020 5.0 Would recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing software customization experience. Pros Working with Zangerine is the best software customization experience I've ever had. We switched over from SAP Business 1 because it was nearly impossible to do a eCommerce software integration. Zangerine got us up and running ON TIME with time to spare. Cons It would be nice if it had more accounting built in Switched from [SAP Business One](https://www.capterra.com/p/214667/SAP-Business-One/) We wanted to allow customers to purchase products through an ecommerce platform. Our current software was just not designed for that and trying to customize it was not going to work. Review Source SD Shane D. National Sales Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Zangerine is our B2B e-commerce, order management, sales reporting and order fulfillment solution" November 9, 2022 5.0 We're very pleased overall with Zangerine's pricing, performance and customer support! Pros We felt the pricing was a good value for the features Zangerine's software offered. The transition to getting set up and running was handled well by the Zangerine onboarding team, and they were there for us in a timely fashion to smooth out any issues we encountered. The various integrations (e-comm and shipping especially) tie all of our functions together efficiently. Cons We had hoped Zangerine would integrate with our CRM and e-mail marketing software. We're keeping our fingers crossed that these functions might some be adding by their development team, which has been open to some of our suggestions, and seems to be making general improvements on a regular basis. Review Source dY daron Y. owner Automotive Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Zangerine - genuinely creative" June 12, 2020 5.0 Our overall experience has been excellent. From the start, I was impressed with their hands on approach and desire to understand our business and its needs. The fact that they spent time with us, in person, to outline and collaborate on the project was appreciated and highly productive. Their team is helpful and responsive. They are creative and accommodating. There is a "yes, we can do that for you" attitude which to me is tremendous strength. Pros Zangerine helped take our Rewards Program to the next level. The Rewards Portal and self scanning feature allowed for individual's to be able to scan their own labels and track their Rewards. This created an enhanced and direct relationship between our company brand and our customers. It also freed up our sales representatives from the task of scanning labels for the recipients and allowed for more time to be spent on sales. This software allowed for us to continue operating seamlessly throughout the COVID 19 Pandemic and continued to track and reward sales of our products by auto repair facilities throughout our distribution territory. Cons Fortunately our experience has been entirely satisfactory. There haven't been any cons because Zangerine is willing and able to customize features as necessary. Reason for choosing Descartes Zangerine I chose to work with this Zangerine because they made the effort to fly out to learn about our company and our needs and because when I met with its \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], I was impressed with his creativity and genuine desire to create the software that our company was looking for. Review Source Response from Descartes Systems Group June 19, 2020 Thanks Daron, we have really enjoyed building out your detailed and ingenious vision into reality in Zangerine! It's been the talk of the office! We look forward to great things to come with ADR! RJ Randy J. President Furniture Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Impressed." December 9, 2022 5.0 We struggled for years to find a software solution, but we were disappointed every time, until we came across Zangerine. We finally have everything we hoped for. The team has been great to work with, very professional, and the process has been very manageable. Pros The thing I like most is the ability to choose options so products can be customized without a convoluted process. That is very unique. Cons Honestly, there is nothing that stands out. Reason for choosing Descartes Zangerine The team at Zangerine pulled though for us and delivered on every commitment they made. I simply could not be more pleased. Review Source IS Idris S. Manager Sporting Goods Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Smooth transition of our inventory" April 14, 2023 5.0 I do highly recommend Zangerine for its easy-to-use inventory management system. We were getting to the point of struggling with cumbersome QuickBooks and Excel spreadsheets and started looking for a better way to manage our inventory and streamline our pick, pack, and ship. Zangerine's user-friendly interface was a deciding factor since it was letting us track items in real time and pinpoint their locations in our warehouses.What really impressed us was the smooth and quick transition to the new system. We were up and running in just a couple of weeks. The ability to eliminate manual work has saved us a lot of time and money. Pros The user-friendly interface and the ability to track items and orders in real-time Cons It would be nice if they add Spanish-speaking trainers. It wasn't a big deal, but it'd be cool.

Sales Manager Warehousing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tangerine with a Z" November 30, 2022 5.0 Great so far and they definitely keep adding key features for the system as we go through the process. Pros Great software. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is dedicated to helping us get to where we are now. Cons Lack of synchronization with our old servers but that is more on our side than anything. Also there's a little bit of issue with QuickBooks but again that's a work in progress on our end. Reason for choosing Descartes Zangerine Customer service was the key factory. They dedicated a weekly meet to go over the things we need for the system. Review Source John W. President Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I have appreciated the top notch customer support and overall efficiency of the software." December 6, 2017 5.0 Pros We have a complex product line with over 700,000 parts and Nebucore helps us make it simple. Nebucore has a friendly staff and has always responded quickly to questions. Cons We've enjoyed the software and they are constantly making the software better. If I could change anything, I would like more automatic reports; however, Nebucore can provide whatever we're needing upon request. Review Source RF Ramon F. Warehouse Manager Warehousing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Feedback" November 30, 2022 4.0 Great. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is amazing. Pros System very easy to use even for those that are not computer savvy. Cons One thing is if we need to make a change sometimes we can't because it affects other companies that use this software also. Review Source NO Natasha O. President Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very user friendly and short learning curve" April 27, 2023 5.0 Its helped me see an overall view of the value of inventory stored as well as identify the product we use the most in our business. Pros The product is very easy to understand and quick to learn. It does exactly what I need it to do, and has tremendously improved our internal process. Cons There could be some features that should have quick keys and buttons to eliminate multiple clicking before getting to the desired pages. I.e. creating new products should have an easier route. Review Source BH Beth H. Operations Support Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Smooth Order Processing" July 6, 2020 5.0 Excellent product and customer service! Contributes to the efficiency of our business every day! Pros Expedient deployment; ease of use; simplicity for all user levels; excellent and responsive support; streamlines processing. Cons Would have liked a commissions module to be standard part of the system. Review Source Response from Descartes Systems Group July 9, 2020 Thanks for the feedback Beth! Since no two companies use the same commission structure and rules Zangerine uses a customizable module to track commissions. We're proud to partner with ZAG! CR Carla R. eCommerce Manager Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Well-Optimized Inventory and eCommerce Management System" October 29, 2017 5.0 NebuCore helped us centralize all our data from warehouse to sales. Because of its all-in-one and unified database, our website and back-office software always show the correct inventory and pricing records. Not having to switch between a CRM, eCommerce, and ERP software has certainly increased our productivity, which is a great deal for a company with limited number of employees like us. Pros Minimized steps/clicks to process typical tasks like adjusting inventory, narrowing down product lists with multiple filters, etc. Customized/Personalized eCommerce website designs based on marketing research and our target market. Fast and easy-to-reach customer support team. Cons Requirement for paying additional one-time fee for the Amazon and eBay integrations to manage incoming orders from marketplaces Review Source AP Andre P. Co-Founder Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy migration process from Excel Sheets to a real Inventory and Purchase Order System" October 31, 2017 5.0 Faster process for dropshipping and managing the in-house inventory. Setting Tiered Pricing for more popular items on our website and managing our committed vs. expected stock records. Pros Straightforward PO System 1-Click Dropshipping Feature Multi-Warehouse Inventory Records Advanced Reports Cons NebuCore does not offer advanced accounting functionalities, such as Payrolls. They, instead, recommend Quickbooks for accounting tasks Review Source MH Mike H. Operations Manager Investment Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Smart development team and good customer support" October 30, 2017 5.0 We needed a custom system like nothing out there because of the new business concept we were introducing. Their team helped us figure out the exact features and flow of the process during their initial "discovery session." The project took about two months from start to finish. They did not ask for the final payment until we gave them our official approval of the project. We have found ourselves in need for their tech support only a few times since the launch, and they have been very responsive in every instance. All our one-time and recurring payments are now being processed automatically though the system and this has saved us lots of time and energy. Pros The flexibility of the system, friendly team, and the involvement of the management made for a good end-product. No long-term contract requirement also made NebuCore stand out in the crowed for us. Cons Not receiving a better discount for paying the subscription fee annually instead of monthly. We would've paid annually if the incentive was higher. Review Source RB Robert B. CEO Building Materials Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great product and customer service" September 28, 2018 5.0 Overall this is a great product at the price point. I would definitely recommend giving them a call and seeing what they can offer you. Pros Easily accessible from anywhere, highly customizable and easy to use. The customer service team works hard to make sure you have all you need to operate including training videos. We have been overly impressed. Cons The program only has basic accounting capabilities which creates a need for accounting software as well. This also creates the need to manually enter information into your accounting software as it doesn't integrate. Review Source CR Craig R. Partner Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Fast Support, Easy Updates" January 22, 2018 5.0 Pros We frequently update our attached documents, brochures and order forms. Fast support for the frequent change orders we have. Cons Perhaps more than we need at the current time. I would rather have the options for future expansion on the same platform however. Review Source AB Ann B. Office Manager Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great System" January 11, 2023 5.0 Pros Zangerine works exactly as advertised. Implementation was very easy. The initial training was great and the videos are very helpful and straight forward. Highly recommend. Cons The titles of things didn't really fit our use of the software.
