    It is less expensive and more accurate than paying staff to update inventory numbers in Mirakl and then type the orders into an ERP. A product like this is needed. Ideally, Mirakl Connect would improve their product so that it mapped orders into one customer record, but until that time, this is the best option that I have found.

    Mendix excels in scenarios involving Business Process Automation, making it a strong choice for applications requiring workflow automation, including processes like request approvals, document management, and other business workflows.Conversely, Mendix may be less suitable for projects that demand highly customized solutions with extensive custom coding. Its primary focus on low-code development may not align well with the requirements of projects that heavily rely on intricate and specialized coding.

    Pros
    Cymbio
    • Automated processes like uploading inventory numbers frequently
    • Cymbio is able to map the dropship orders to the company customer record in Shopify and does not create a new record for every customer (like Mirakl Connect does)
    • I like that the orders come through to Shopify without being marked as "Paid". I find this accounting easier to manually "pay" them in my system when I actually receive the payment from the vendor (this is another key difference between Cymbio and Mirakl Connect)

    • We're able to really easily develop different views that are very specific to a customer's needs or customer's different types of user needs. So for example, the production managers can have a certain view that's relevant to them and then certain line managers can have views that are specific to them that allow them to run different scenarios which they define. So it allows us to easily build customized apps for each different type of user.

    Cons
    Cymbio
    • Customer Service. It would be great if they had service hours that matched business hours in the USA, but even accounting for the time difference, the customer service is not quick or friendly.
    • They take away services. I am not sure if they hook you with extra services and then take them away over time or if it just happened to be that I started at a time they offered a lot more for the same price. When I started, they completely handled setting up a new retailer. Then they would set up the data, but I had to reformat all of images. Then they did nothing to set up a new retailer. Not only do you now have to set up in Mirakl all on your own, when you send them the file from Mirakl to map, you then have to go into Cymbio and upload the prices as well - a whole new extra step.
    • A more user-friendly customer interface. In my opinion, there is not much of a user interface at all. I think the interface for pricing uploads is terrible and cumbersome and they are not open to any feedback about that. It would be great if you could directly change a price, but even to change one price, you have to format an upload file. And that's all you can really do there. All other requests to add to assortments, etc are done though what looks like Google forms.

    • Earlier versions lacked in UI/Ux. This is still improving.
    • Since everyone and anyone can create custom add ons (widgets), Mendix could improve their quality checks (but not as rigid as eg Apple).
    • Upgradeability used to be somewhat of an issue. Version 7 looks to be handling this better than previous versions.

    Usability
    Cymbio
    In my opinion, not easy to use. Based on my experience, they started with employees only directly using the system. Having an app to have customers log in and do tasks on their own seems like an afterthought that has not been well executed. However, once you have these things in place, you really don't have to mess with it very often. If you change your prices frequently, it might be more of an issue.

    A 10 would say I have nothing to wish for. A 9 means I haven't seen anything better.This tool really helps you in the whole creation and maintenace cycle, so from requirements to building/modeling to testing to deploying to capturing feedback.

    Mirakl Connect created a new customer record for every order. This was messy, difficult to figure out which customers went with which retailer and I was concerned about having my retail partner's customer data mixed in with my own. For me, this was a deal breaker which was such a bummer since this is a free product!

    Mendix would be my preferred system all the way. The system is designed for these kinds of works. I've worked with WP and DNN but they should be used just for websites. To create an app for a business value, I would suggest Mendix. Also, the offline capabilities of Mendix have greatly improved since the deployment of Mendix 7.13.

    Return on Investment
    Cymbio
    • Better customer service because our inventory is accurate
    • It pays for itself in saved staff time compared to doing all of these steps manually
    • It is much more accurate to have the data transmitted electronically, there is no concern for mistyping

    • It helps to speed up application development because of its low code by the fact that it's low code. It allows professional developers to focus more on specialized application development rather than the more routine application development that business IT and super users can do for themselves with some coaching from the IT department. So it's just allowing the more specialist professional developers.net, for example, Java in our organization to focus on more complex engineering application developments.
