Fishbowl Inventory vs. Korber Warehouse Edge

Fishbowl is well suited for warehouse operations because you can control, monitor, report or view the progress of materials all the way from purchasing and receiving to the shipment and tracking of products. It integrates with major carriers and with QuickBooks so it does offer a suite that can support the entire operation. It allows for workflow monitoring, so particular groups or products can be tracked.

Korber Warehouse Edge (formerly HighJump / AccellosOne) is well suited for any organization that ships to customers. If an organization has different shipping parameters for different customer customizations, it can be costly adding to the original price of the software.

• Inventory control - provides easy/accurate reports. Also, cycle counts can be done at any time. The warehouse team was easily trained.
• Sales Orders - Fishbowl allowed us to have the sales orders accessible to everyone and linked the customers' purchase order to the orders and work orders (within the system). It no longer needs to be manually linked.
• Custom reports - for a small fee we had reports customized specifically for our company.
• Link to Quickbooks - invoices generated directly after closure of sales order.

Incentivized

• The system has a fairly intuitive user experience that quickly enabled us to achieve performance improvements
• While integration with our ERP (NetSuite) has had a couple of issues, by and large, it has been a significant improvement over our prior environment (Sage).

Incentivized

• MRP
• BOM creation
• Unified interface

Incentivized

• Backorders--there are no alerts when backorders don't drop down
• Reports--there are a number of reports we don't use because they are not easily customizable

Originally the support for Fishbowl was very poor. It was hard to get anyone to help. In the last 12 - 14 months, it has greatly improved and if it continues this way I would certainly rate it higher.

Fishbowl is more useful than QuickBooks Manufacturing if you operate complex manufacturing with multiple multi layered BOMS

Korber Warehouse Edge (formerly HighJump / AccellosOne) is a warehouse management software with one purpose. It does what it should. Sage X3 is a ERP system that integrates shipping but misses some of the warehouse management components.

Incentivized

• Positive: Decreased time spent on copy/pasting in spreadsheets.
• Positive: Easier to analyze costs and guarantee efficiency.
• Negative: Time to get it up and running is really difficult to work with.

Incentivized

• We have reduced pick/pack staff due to operational improvements enabled by Warehouse Edge.
• We have been able to acquire new customers and fulfillment programs due to the capabilities of the HighJump system.
