1. Installed and 2nd discount wouldn't work. 2. Messaged help desk. 3. Next day they apologized in email for not responding saying they were helping black Friday customers and couldn't get to our concerns. 4. Then they explained that their app isn't working with Shopofy collections despite being advertised and an option. 5. They asked us to handle the discount by either individually tagging or selecting all 2500+ items... by hand... Requested refund and deleting app as they have no resolution planned.
First time ised app seemed to cause inventory problem, 3 senior shooify staff members said delete it, we did, appeared to fix the problem. App serivce response over 3 days was slow in our opinion. We chose try it again. 2 days it seems to work, simplistic, only capture active not auction. Rewriting review because developer Nimbal has messages and emailed us like 6 times bugging us people might not like it, so plewse don't be worried Shooify had is delete it the first time.
It pulls in data beautifully. If you want a consolidated picture of the transactions on your sites this is it. It doesn't cross sync and update inventory to prevent overselling a product across multiple platforms though. Youchave to still update each inventory manually. So sell 2 on azon you need to manually gocinto ebay and adjust inventory. Also once products are created there is no easy way to delete them. And there's not an easy filternsydtem to keep from pulling in specific inventory. If you only want 2000 of 1000 products from shopify it will bring all 100p and you will have to sort and filter sellbrite.sp it's all or nothing. Response to their response: and there it is... it must be the customers fault... nothing attracts a small business owner more than blaming them. We pointed out the problems. Nobody provided an answer that we could follow. It must be our fault. Love it.

Thank you for your feedback! There may have been some confusion as Sellbrite's primary feature is the ability to synchronize inventory across your channels and prevent overselling. If you weren’t seeing your inventory syncing between your channels, then it's possible you may not have had the inventory sync feature enabled. This does need to be enabled after you set up your account so we can start syncing inventory for you. This is to help prevent the system from syncing incorrect quantities to your channels during your setup/onboarding process. We would be happy to assist you in setting up these features if you ever revisit Sellbrite in the future!
Respone to Vendor Statement: The rebuttal is exactly demonstrative of the problem. They cherry picked the facts to argue but they skipped the important facts. 1. Alroy determined it couldn't be done and emailed us the message. Then their own team called to argue he was wrong and a labor intensive work around with manual spreadsheet updates 12 times a day could be done... uhm no thank you. Our request has been and remains the same, can your software handle an API feed or does it have to be spreeadhseet... even today we got another argumentative email that maybe a partner API through Shopify they haven't mentioned in 25 days... exhausting. And our question was simple, if you can do it please tell us how you would do it and what is the cost.... day 25 no plan no quote but a lengthy argumentative rebuttal letter arguing why they aren't wrong for not providing a plan and a quote... 2. On 2/27 we have already walked through features we liked held the love demo session and said proceed I'd Alroy is so wrong, get us a cost so we can get it started if you csn do it. They can't. To quote them ",it has to be spreeadhseet with unworkable around" Notbsure why they are telling incomplete facts but when we said go ahead and shownusbthe plan andncost... as of 3/11 there i still no plan and no cost, no API from an unknown 3rd party. Look at this, a customer saying please show me a quote so I could pay you and they argue, ha! Because as we found out they couldn't do it. Alroy was right, they don't have a solution. That's fine. As we said we are moving on. But they are mad we told our experience. Hilarious. My best reccomendation is simply avoid them. Salestio or CED or anyone other than this will be easier. Because rather than arguing and emailing all they had to do was provide a plan and a cost... and they didn't. Exhausting... and the multiple calls today from Alroy demanding that we take down this review. Oh and their number calling from is 9176753267 as proof. Cool looking interface. Provided CS team data logins and access for API, inventory spreadsheets etc and did our demo. 2nd time we've looked at it. They stated maybe we can do API provide info and access and we will tell you. That was 2/15 when it started. 3/8 still hadn't been done. Alroy determined they cant do the API or the spreadsheet and rejected our product feed. But then 2 of their employees called disagreeing with Alroy and Najaf. And candidly the never answered all the questions. They kept circling back to we need to analyze the data... but they had 21 days to analyze it and never got anywhere and contradict each other. They also had advertised they could manage the listings but in this process they kept going back to we would have to do the spreadsheet uploads (which refresh 12 times a day) and deferred managing the listings to us reccomending that we hire more staff... so they really weren't serious about taking some of the listing management tasks. But in the end they couldn't account for what hadn't been done for 21 days and we have to move on with software providers who are ready for the market. Give them another year and they may he ready or possibly entertaining automation by then.

Hello Jon, We are sorry to hear about your experience. Per your query, we have shared the complete day to day series of events for the past 21 days in the section below.

Alroy determined they cant do the API or the spreadsheet and rejected our product feed. But then 2 of their employees called disagreeing with Alroy and Najaf. And candidly the never answered all the questions. ChannelSale Reply) We informed you via a telephonic meeting and via email that the steps for proceeding with 3rd party supplier API connection (outside of Shopify) requires our developers to review the number of fields and attributes that need to be imported and then matchup with the marketplace acceptable value first. This has to be carried out separately for each marketplace. Client stated) They kept circling back to we need to analyze the data but they had 21 days to analyze it and never got anywhere and contradicted each other. They also had advertised they could manage the listings but in this process they kept going back to we would have to do the spreadsheet uploads (which refresh 12 times a day) and deferred managing the listings to us recommending that we hire more staff... so they really weren't serious about taking some of the listing management tasks. ChannelSale Reply) We reviewed the data feed provided by you and it did not contain the short description and we informed you about the same. To minimise the acceptable values or the errors caused while posting the feeds to the marketplaces. Client stated) But in the end they couldn't account for what hadn't been done for 21 days and we have to move on with software providers who are ready for the market. Give them another year and they may be ready or possibly entertaining automation by then. ChannelSale Reply) Day to day series of events shared in section below. Kindly note that the automation you are asking for is from a 3rd part software and not Shopify.

" ChannelSale provided a demo. 03/01 ChannelSale emailed client that we prior require to validate the file coming from the supplier before proceeding with the custom development task and that the short description is missing from the supplier feed which a required field to import the products in ChannelSale as well to list on marketplaces. 03/02 - Saturday 03/03 - Sunday 03/04 - Client asked for more information to proceed with custom API setup to which ChannelSale replied that the client needs to try what features are readily available and then if all goes well then we can share the cost for a one time set-up fee after our developers have provided us with the review and timeline to complete the integration. 03/06 Client asked for the same query to proceed with custom supplier API hence ChannelSale emailed reiterating the same reply given on 02/27. 03/08 Client asked to close the account and they will circle back when they arrange for the product data from their supplier.

Keeps disconnecting, no one answered chat to help Full review the software kept 1. Disconnecting 2. Making duplicated when reconnecting 3. When we questioned what they considered functional they didn't like it. Answers took. 7 to 10 days to get. Finally they terminated our account because they couldn't fix it and we asked for a refund so they didn't refund and just deleted the account. Mercari poshmark and depop would work 3 days in a row. Yair and Jairus have no answers either if they respond at all to the help request submissions. Also it doesn't update and refresh your invr tory consistently.
