Founder & CEO Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "3PL, Sourcing & More" July 29, 2022 5.0 The customer service team has been great, we have a custom product offering & have a lot of moving parts. Working with the team directly has been really helpful. Pros I love how I was able to source my manufacture and reach out to multiple different companies easily to start a conversation. Cons I don't love that all the samples need to go to Pietra's warehouse prior to me, it increases processing time & would be easier if I could opt in to send them directly. Review Source MD Megan D. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Order fulfillment and customer support are waaaaaaaaay better than competitors" August 26, 2023 5.0 Really like the company and team catering to small businesses. Seems like other warehouses and fulfillment centers cater to the big guys, and they wait for weeks to respond to me. This company has a very fast customer support and makes sure they are flexible enough to work with the small guys. Don't know how long it'll last but for once it feels good to be able to talk to someone when there is a problem. Pros Most of the other warehouse and fulfillment centers don't cater to small businesses. We needed a solution that had great customer support and cared about the smaller brands. When I found out my Pietra membership gave me access to a fulfillment center, I had to try it! Couldn't be happier. This company actually cares. If you're considering Shipbob or Shipmonk I would strongly suggest considering Pietra. They don't have all the bells and whistles that I'll never use. It's right to the point, tech forward, and just works. Cons The only way to get access to Pietra's private 3PL is to be a member of their ecosystem. At first I just wanted to use the fulfillment center but I realized I needed to buy a membership. Luckily they have an affordable month-to-month plan but you can't try it for free. Alternatives considered [ShipMonk](https://www.capterra.com/p/153768/ShipMonk/) Reason for choosing Pietra Price, customer support. I'm just getting this business off the ground and they understood that. Switched from [ShipBob](https://www.capterra.com/p/166529/ShipBob/) I was a small business that didn't need all the bells and whistles. Just great pricing and customer support.

Founder and CEO Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The Most Miserable Experience " January 2, 2025 1.0 I had a deeply frustrating experience with Pietra's fulfillment services, especially during the holiday season. Despite placing orders well in advance, many customers didn’t receive their products on time, resulting in countless complaints, poor reviews, and heartbreaking stories—like a father whose daughter had no gifts due to unshipped orders. Over months, I raised concerns about recurring issues, including incorrect orders, missing shipments, and excessive delays (up to 41 days). Despite assurances, the problems only worsened. The lack of accountability and assistance in resolving these issues has been devastating for my small business. After spending $10k to move my inventory, I’ve decided to cut ties entirely. I strongly advise other small businesses to avoid Pietra if reliable fulfillment is critical to their operations. Pros At this point in time I have nothing positive to report about this company. Cons \- Fulfillment Time - Communications - Support - Errors left and right Review Source KS Kasey S. CEO Food & Beverages Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Exactly What I Was Looking For" June 28, 2022 5.0 10/10. They hit the sweet spot of service, reliability and quality tech. Haven't had a single error on a shipment yet and their network of suppliers continues to grow. We had special request for kitting that Pietra accommodated. Pros Pietra is just what I was looking for. Great platform for finding my suppliers but their fulfillment hits the sweet spot. Big enough to handle our volume but still gives our brand attention and dedication. Other larger fulfillment centers onboarded me and then forgot about us. Very happy. Cons When looking for Services the platform treated it liked a Product. Alternatives considered [ShipBob](https://www.capterra.com/p/166529/ShipBob/) Reason for choosing Pietra Same notes as above. Also their pick pack fee is the most competitive. Switched from [ShipMonk](https://www.capterra.com/p/153768/ShipMonk/) Shipmonk onboarded us and then never gave us the time of day. We had special request for kitting etc that were near impossible to get them to do. Pietra accommodated.

June 24, 2022 5.0 Pietra has made it easy for me to help launch influencer brands quickly and has saved me an enormous amount of time since they also handle logistics including warehousing and shipping. Pros Pietra's platform has a lot to offer someone looking to create a new brand and sell their products online. The creator tools are easy to use and allow me to manage everything about my business online. I have access to connect with the Pietra team if I have questions and also have visibility into inventory and sales data once my brands are live. Cons It can take a while navigating through the platform as there are many different decisions to be made when starting a product line such as sourcing, ingredients, branding and packaging.

Co-Founder Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Bad Customer Service and Refund Policy" August 20, 2024 1.0 This is probably the worst order fulfillment platform I have ever used! Terrible customer service from both their supervisor and customer support team. The supplier that we dealt with on the platform delivered subpar and defective products and Pietra does not want to provide a full refund back to the original payment method. Instead, they want to force me to accept a credit for the Pietra platform for the cost of my order. This is absurd and completely unacceptable! Reporting them as fraud to my credit card provider. Stay away from Pietra at all cost! Cons Poor customer service and refund policy. Delays in responding to customers. Review Source AS Ari S. owner Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "not worthy for paying for sourcing " July 20, 2024 3.0 you pay montly fee plus you also pay service fee everytime you make order. i find out most of their suppliers are on alibaba. you can work with them without fees. not worthy at all if you are using for sourcing. Pros easy access for suppliers ( most of them are not really good suppliers even tho they're recommended ones) / suppliers you can easily find on alibaba, not thing more than that) Cons when you have issues with the factories (suppliers made completely different product you find on pietra, all they say is " try to work with the factories) customer service team will do nothing but keep saying just try to slove the problem with the factory directly which we did in the first place. Review Source Jennifer D. Owner Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A nightmare of a 3PL" April 28, 2023 2.0 Pros The interface is sort of cute. It seemed promising. The idea of an all in one solution for influencers to develop and sell a product is a great one, but the execution is poor. Cons Extremely late shipping of orders; orders sitting in the queue far longer than the stated fulfillment time. Choosing $18 DHL shipping of an order that we would've shipped for $9-12 via USPS. Choosing the most expensive shipping option to ship orders. This warehouse will not hesitate to charge us so much for shipping that we lose money on every order.Many, many processes that ought to be automated are instead performed manually by humans (for example, checking in inventory, or listing inventory to new platforms), taking up such a huge amount of time it's hard to imagine either the business (us) or Pietra making money. Every time a shipment arrives at Pietra's warehouse, we have to have a Zoom call about it.Pietra's offer to list our merchandise across multiple platforms, which was a selling point, has turned out to be trivial or even damaging. For example, Pietra lists all its clients items on Pietra's own Etsy page, \[sensitive content hidden\], which currently has made 2 sales ever and has 1 star out of 5. Pietra is offering to list our products to Twitter on Pietra's own Twitter Shops, but Twitter only allows each shop to list a total of 50 items, so it would not be possible for Pietra to follow through on this.We have not used Pietra's sourcing but have not had a need to do this, as I have really never had an issue communicating directly with a Chinese manufacturer, as all of them have English speaking agents whose job it is to do this. Review Source AA Aaron A. Founders Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The Best Tool for Small Businesses!!" July 27, 2022 5.0 I have had the most amazing experience using Pietra! Using Pietra feels like I hired a team of people to help me through the small business process. From creating my product to selling it Pietra has changed the way I run aaronevy. If you are using any other tools you are wasting your time- Pietra is it!! Pros Pietra completely changed the way I run my small swimwear business. I went from shooting in the dark trying to figure everything out myself to having every possible tool needed. I use their sourcing tools to find the perfect suppliers for swimwear and packaging. I love that I can trust their vetting process for suppliers and the ability to get the best deal out their through their network! I also use them for shipping, warehousing, and fulfillment. They have the cheapest shipping rates with the fastest customer service I could find which allows me to really grow my small business. Not to mention their marketplace that helps me find new sales channels and sell to their audience. I just simply shouldn't recommend this software enough I tell anyone who is starting a business to look to Pietra. They made my business possible! Cons I really have no complaints about Pietra! They gave me more tools than I even know I needed. Review Source IZ Ivy Z. sales manager Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Pietra rocks" July 8, 2022 5.0 From my point of view, Pietra is THE BEST PLATFORM THAT I'VE EVER SEEN! So many ADVANTAGES that Pietra has and others don't! For me, as a Chinese supplier, it's totally FREE to join, and NO ANY EXTRA FEES! That's awesome!!! When customers place orders, Pietra always transfers payment to me first, so my capital chain is always sufficient. And customers on Pietra are so nice, maybe because they're all influencers in the U.S.and I realized the sample to inventory conversion rate is pretty high compared to other platforms. And Pietra's service is soooo nice! We just need to ship our goods to their Fulfillment Center, and then they will help us to ship to our customers. That's cool! I don't even have to ask for a customer address! That saved my time a lot! Also Pietra always has good policies to help suppliers which is so warmhearted and so nice!🥰 I LOVE PIETRA! Even though it's a start-up platform, I can still see great passion from it! Now our factory has already quitted other platforms and is concentrating on Pietra and we believe that Pietra will definitely help us to sell our nice products to all over the world. Two thumbs up for Pietra!!! Pros Inventory management, fulfillment service, ease of use, shipping service. Cons No, I love everything that Pietra provides. Review Source KB Katie B. Operations Coordinator Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Katie Brown - Pietra Review " October 3, 2022 5.0 Working with Pietra has been great! As a platform it is awesome but beyond that the team at Pietra is truly amazing. They work so hard for us, they are incredibly helpful and responsive when we run into issues, and they have also worked so hard to help us hit drop dates with very short turn around time for receiving our items. The team at Pietra and especially in the fulfillment center is always going above and beyond for us and we are so grateful for them. Pros The platform is very easy to use and to navigate. I am never feeling confused on where to find something on the platform. It also integrates/lines up so well with Shopify which makes my job a lot easier as I am going back and forth between the two platforms! Cons Overall I love the Pietra software. There are very minor changes here and there that I would make (one example that comes to mind is when I receive the emails telling me that "products have arrived at the fulfillment center" it would be great if that email listed which products we are referring to). There are very small things such as that that could improve the platform but overall it runs very well and smoothly. Review Source SS Shelby S. Operations Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "LOVE working with Pietra!!" July 6, 2022 5.0 Pros I love how easy the program is to use and the team that is dedicated to helping get your products off the ground and selling out. They are the most responsive team we've worked it, they are willing to help source anything we need and are amazing with customer service. Cons We are excited for them to onboard more suppliers! Review Source SS Safira S. Owner Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Beyond Happy " August 5, 2022 5.0 I am beyond happy and impressed. My brand rep is the BEST and the classes are very help as well. Pros I like that I no longer have to source product the old fashion way and worry about things like FOBs, and the safety of my bank account information. Pietra allows me to create and feel safe as I grow my brand. I can run a very important part of my company from one dashboard. Cons I do not like that I can not archive conversations with suppliers. Review Source RG Robert G. Founder Internet Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "No One Does It Better" June 28, 2022 5.0 Pros The software is incredibly easy to use. It has helped me scale my business effectively. Cons I haven't had any issues with the software. Review Source VT Val T. Business Development Manager Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We love Pietra!" June 29, 2022 4.0 Pros I love how easy Pietra makes connecting and chatting with suppliers. I can keep all my ongoing conversations in one place, send links/documents and schedule calls- making the product development process super easy! Cons Hoping bundling features will be added in the future so we can sell kits to our customers without segmenting inventory. Review Source LK Luke K. Founder Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Tool" August 12, 2022 5.0 Pros There is an abundance of options for just about anything you can imagine needing when developing a brand regardless of size or scope. Customer support and onboarding is phenomenal. Cons The messaging platform/inbox is pretty clunky. It gets the job done, but there is certainly lots of room for improvement. Review Source JV Jade V. Creator Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Pietra is for everyone !" July 13, 2022 5.0 Pros Pietra is easy to use, helpful and accessible Cons I watched Pietra build from when they first started and all I can say is I’m super impressed by how well they created this impactful solution for creators and business owners Review Source SM Sarah M. CEO Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Really valuable for sourcing new manufacturers and managing orders" July 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Pietra has great suppliers and makes the process of issuing RFP's and placing orders a breeze Cons So far it's meeting all my needs. I think longer term it would be great for Pietra to also help with inventory management. Review Source FA Francesca A. VP Of Product Development Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Pierta " August 2, 2022 5.0 Pros Ease of finding suppliers for specific items, easy communication and sampling process Cons Inbox is hard to manage, would like a delete option, flag option, etc. Hard to find items or suppliers if it is outside the preset categories Review Source Similar Products Featured ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
