Cons
Airhouse
  • Material Management: The current platform does not allow for the team to see how many of our packaging materials are in stock.
  • Team Communication: The team that I email is not the team at the warehouse so there is oftentimes a delay in communication.
  • Packaging Standard: When I have the team mail materials to our team for wholesale, etc. needs, the team does not always pack these materials appropriate for the type of product we sell.

  • Intelligence, it gets stuck in some areas of the country
  • Integration with [other] apps, we would appreciate a collaboration with [other] tracking apps that can share the same information if they are being installed [on] the same device
  • A better and clean dashboard, its face needs a renewal, a fresh look, adapted to the current trends

Alternatives Considered
Airhouse
The process was more personal and we were able to work with a team to get started. ShipBob was deeply confusing as it was just us using the computer to upload and handle materials.

It is a powered tool that can be used by any of the current logistics (and why not?, non-logistics companies), that need a reliable, accurate, and well-based amount of information of the fleet, with ease. Using the [latest] technologies, integrating a wide view of transportation, inventory, [and] custom status on a single but not simple platform.

Return on Investment
Airhouse
  • Consistent Branding: Many fulfillment centers do not allow custom packaging to align with the luxury experience our brand gives our customers.
  • Gift Customization: We were unable to offer gift notes to customers for our holidays which was a loss in our luxury gifting experience.
