Pros:

The ease in using the application and the customer support.

Cons:

We're missing the possibility to chat to our customers in Channel Engine. The customer support now needs to log in to dozens channels to talk to the customers. Another integrator has this function.

ChannelEngine review

4.0 last year

Pros:

The integrator function of ChannelEngine works best and the support of the team is fast and helpful.

Cons:

Big changes/updates in the back end of ChannelEngine can have a large impact on our performances. The past has shown that this sometimes is not correctly communicated or tested properly and can affect our sales too much.

ChannelEngine feedback

5.0 last year

Comments: Amazed by the ChannelEngine features and possibilities. Also in cooperation with our success manager, we are able to easily manage different marketplaces and expand to other new channels.

Pros:

Content mapping, price rules, feedback why products are not published, customer care, Order management.

Cons:

Repricer doesn't work for all situations. We often lose to much unnecessary margin because the repricer does not increase the price when possible. For example: price gets repriced from 200 to 170 to win the buy box. Competitions offer gets offline, which makes it possible to bring the price back to 200 and still have the buy box, but our repricer does not do that (yet).It would also be a really nice feature if we could see the % of each field in de mapping stage that is correctly filled. For example: Required field X in Category Y has 97% successfully filled fields.Currently we can not see this on the mapping page. It would also be very effective if ChannelEngine shows us the products with empty fields (3%).

Accelerating growth in multiple regions

4.0 last year

Comments: Thanks to the support of Channel Engine we are now capable of scaling on multiple marketplace at a higher pace.

Pros:

Channel Engine has been essential in scaling our business on multiple platforms / marketplaces across regions: not only Amazon in the US and EMEA, but also 'local'marketplaces in Germany, The Netherlands and France. Still working on scaling to other platforms, with the full support and engagement of the customer success managers.

Cons:

US integrations were delayed due to some critical differences between the Euopean and US markets. This is being handled, however, a deeper understanding of the intricate details of the doing business in the US (Tax issues) should have been a known.However, CE-team is adequately following up and setting up a separate test environment for the US market.

Easy to use and pro-active integrator for all marketplace activities

5.0 last year

Comments: Great solution for external channel management, regarding orders, stock, content etc. No direct integration needed with several marketplace channels which saves us a great deal of time and custom work.

Pros:

Good customer service, willingness to help and proactiveness. Easy to use and nice overviews of errors, listed products etc. Documentation of all channels are available as well.

Cons:

There's nothing not to like to be honest.

Advanced, user-friendly and efficient software

5.0 last year

Pros:

ChannelEngine is a user-friendly integrator which is understandable by almost everyone. The integration process is well guided, the level of support offered (both customer/general and technical) is high and there is a very extensive database of helpful articles. The software itself is extensive in terms of features but still manageable.

Cons:

The software sometimes struggles with the amount of data within a tenant/account containing many articles. However, this has already improved significantly over the past two years.

Comments: One of the easiest integrators I have ever worked with with a very good personal touch.

Pros:

the personal treatment from our key account manager

Cons:

I would like them to implement some changes that would give us more autonomy to not depend so much on technical support that can be increasingly saturated.
