BetterCommerce vs. Lingo

BetterCommerce can be a bit complicated to understand the scope of for an ecommerce brand, but the implementation is simple upon signing up. What really matters is the results that have came about in terms of conversions from customer engagement, orders, and also views of the product marketplace. I like that SEO is included and data is omnichannel meaning we can see all of our brand's sales channels for the most data driven decisions.

Lingo is great for small to mid sized company working with big box retailers that want to manage EDI in a cost effective but also time efficient manner. If you are looking for complete automation and integration, or a highly developed interface this is not the EDI platofrm for you

• Currency Option
• Initial Step of inventory and Scaling
• Managing multiple store at once

• User friendly, easy to see what needs to be done for each retail partner and completing all required documents
• Its price is competitive compared to other options
• Nice that they don't send a million update and confirmation emails like some platforms

• Bit hard to understand the features at first glance

• Cost setup for each retail partner is steep. In this digital age, it seems like a rip off to have to pay for this service
• ERP/Warehouse integration - it does not have the ability to integrate with our ERP setup currently.
• Sometimes there are just one too many steps to submit documents - wish it automatically prompted to the next submission step to remember to get through all steps more easily and not get lost in submitting documents

We selected BetterCommerce for its 100% API-first philosophy. We were able to integrate it without changing our stack and customize our online store.

We used SPS for a brief time because our warehouse had the capability to integrate with this program. It was very expensive and the interface for manually processing was not user friendly or easy to navigate. The integration was going to be an additional large cost. Lingo, while it does not have the integration capabilities, was the lower cost and easier to use option. We could get things done quickly for a lower cost and easily teach our third party warehouse to help in the process.

• Increased the Sales with Online Platform
• Increased customer awareness about the product.
• Required knowledge of the technical aspect.

• It helps us save money on EDI processing
• It was user friendly so we could have our warehouse take over helping us process ASNs and take over steps on processing EDI orders for no additional cost- this has saved our admin time needed for these orders
• We were able to add all our retailer partners with specific requirements without issue. It helps us stream the processing and save time/money on these orders where the margins are not always great and the rules complicated
