Acumatica vs. Ordoro

I would love to recommend it to my friends and colleagues. They have a dedicated storage manager along with some really good cloud capabilities, which helps get the work done efficiently and professionally. We have been using it since 2022, and they are great in this segment.

Ordoro is ideal for a company with multiple websites and/or sales channels that does both in-house shipping and has orders drop-shipped. Ordoro keeps orders and inventory in one central location, so you can manage orders, inventory, vendors, shipping, etc., all from one location. Creating and printing shipping labels is fast and simple. Ordoro's PO features and drop-ship integration with vendors has saved us a ton of time and hassle.

• We just went live about two weeks ago, so we are here at Acumatica Summit to see everything it's capable of. One of the things it is capable of is the dashboards and the integration with some of these third-party people to ensure we can get the data we need when we need it, so we're looking forward to getting all that live for us.

• Ordoro manages inventory across multiple platforms very well. If you sell an item on one channel, it reduces your told inventory and updates it across all of your other channels so you never risk going out of stock on an item.
• Ordoro is awesome for bringing all of your orders into one central location which streamlines shipping processes. They also provide reduced shipping costs for most well-known shipping carriers.
• Ordoro has incredible technical support and customer care team. Unlike other similar products, when you call Ordoro, you talk to a real live person who is never reading a script and always friendly and happy to help with any questions you may have.

• There are a few spots where there is a list of data that we need a total for and we have to extract to Excel to get a total. It would be helpful to see a sum right in Acumatica.
• For the first time today I had an interesting glitch - my entire bank reconciliation unchecked the "reconciled" column and needed to be redone for the month. Funky little glitches happen from time to time
• Pivot tables don't seem to update as expected by using filters

• We would love for the ability to have more control of the packing slip templates (ie. add barcodes for order numbers on the packing slip etc.).
• Wish it would sync to our eCommerce platform a bit more often than 1x per hour. We can manually sync, but that takes a few minutes.
• Wish it would connect to the other software platform we use to manage our Amazon orders, Monsoon Commerce.

I gave this 10 rating because Acumatica ERP is the backbone of the organization, next to the IT Team. We use this software for many different parts of our business. For example our Retail service stations that utilize the inventory, billing, and financials. Our Distribution company that uses it for Field services, CRM, Sales, Accounts and Financial consolidation of all company financials.

I give it an 8 because it is very intuitive and easy to use for day to day work. I find it more difficult to create general inquiries and financial statements than it seems that it should be. It's not very intuitive in those areas.

Ordoro really excels in its simplicity and elegance. From set up, to everyday use, it's very intuitive and easy to learn

It's always available.

We used Acumatica Support directly for the first year or so. Overall it's pretty good, but sometimes the support staff wasn't educated on the customizations we had, nor was I as the Customer as I couldn't remember which things were customized and which things were out of the box, so when there was an error, there were some misunderstandings.

In the six years we've used Ordoro, their customer service has been responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable. They have a robust support center for DIY answers, and honestly, we don't need support often because their product is so reliable. But when we need to reach a human for additional support, they have always been excellent.

It was on General Inquiries and it's just a complex topic.

Most of the trainers are amazing, but there were a couple who simply read the training guide

I'd say the partner selection is critically important. I think the software is very easy to implement. It's very customizable to your business. Finding a partner that will work with you to understand your business and your needs is the critical piece to make sure that the system goes along with it.

Change always takes time and adjusment, but set up was so simple. Once we were fully set up, Ordoro w

Acumatica's sales process was much better than that of NetSuites. The NetAtWork team spent much more time with us and showed us how Acumatica really could do everything that we needed it to do, with examples using our data.

Other solutions may be more advanced or complete for certain tasks, however they are either more expensive or otherwise cover only partial operational requirements. For example, you may find a superior solution for inventory or fulfillment management, which will force you to work in two or more different systems, In addition the total cost will be usually more than you would pay for Ordoro. Some systems may be more complete than Ordoro, but at the same time too expensive for most small business. Ordoro has excellent customer service, superior to many similar, cost-effective, solutions.

No, annual invoices are fine. I do like that unlimited users are included.

From my understanding, the P.O. module is not very robust, at least the last time I inquired about it. At the time, it had a one-to-one match, with one invoice for one P.O. and that isn't practical for many businesses. I don't believe it would be an easy system to use for sending out invoices, if we had thousands of retail utility customers. We do a small number of invoices because we sell wholesale power, not retail, so we only Invoice the municipality. Not each utility customer.

They are very responsive and knowledgeable about the product. If the rep doesn't have the ability to solve the issue, they quickly get someone else involved to assist us.

• We were able to work in one system with customizations we needed in inventory and add all our grants in the same system
• Direct mail invoices was moved to an automated PO system saving time and allowing better financial tracking
• The grant module can be cumbersome requiring flip flopping to program partners etc during set up

• By using Ordoro, we have saved money by taking advantage of their reduced shipping costs.
• We have saved time by using Ordoro because we are no longer manually managing inventory across multiple channels.
• Ordoro is affordable and has allowed us to easily scale up or down as our business needs have changed.
