• 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.

After posting this (previously positive) review, all communication stopped from ImportYeti's side. Updating the review to reflect this.

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.

ImportYeti is aimed for simplicity and cost effective solution. Many of its competitors provide a wide range of solutions, with a much greater price point. If you need a complete range of solutions, you may consider other options. ImportYeti is great in its scope, for querying the information regarding US imports. Is structured and really easy to use.

• 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.
