  • I don't get very many orders that have to be routed through this portal.
  • If it has been a while since logging in, I have to request that my account be unlocked.
  • While there was great functionality, the ability to custom tailor the platform to a unique business process was limited.

The package of Sterling Order Management / Sterling Store / Sterling Call Center works very well and it supports the expansion to Geographies like US/EU/JP/China, some of hottest markets for e-commerce.

Manhattan Active Supply Chain is user friendly and easy to navigate. It's good with inventory management. Small variances in inventory
can have big repercussions in your supply chain and I prefer to use a stable product, so I feel the best choice is Manhattan Active Supply Chain. Also the tool's good with planning and forecasting, it provides sophisticated tools that anticipate demand.
