According to the vendor key differentiators include:
- Software and Service. Service is an integral part of Brightpearl's offer. The vendor says their retail consultants get users live three times faster than traditional ERP, always for a fixed cost. And the in-house team is available throughout, from tech support to ongoing business consulting.
- Built for Retail. Brightpearl is built only for the retail sector. This means: configuration not coding, designed for use by merchants not IT staff, every new feature is relevant, and their integrations and ecosystem are 100% retail.
- Designed to Scale. Whether it’s seasonal peaks, promotions or sustained growth, merchants need an ops platform that can handle the volume. The vendor says they stand by their numbers: orders, SKUs, channels, reporting and financials fit for multi-million dollar merchants.

Support for a retail/e-commerce business
- Brightpearl has really helped with stock integrity
- It has been beneficial but now I realise that other software can do so much more.
- Efficiency is improved because orders are imported automatically but that counts for all the other software I have looked at.

Brightpearl User Review
- Brightpearl has a positive impact on our ability to maintain accurate inventory levels and not over-order products.
- Updating product variants that were either imported incorrectly from our original inventory system or created wrong during product creation can be very time-consuming and frustrating until you figure out their export/import options.

Brightpearl - helpful and efficient!
- Organization
- It has definitely improved ROI as we are spending less time doing manual tasks like orders download, then uploading on [our] stock management system, doing payment reconciliation on different accounting software and then spending less time finding details of customers in case there is an issue.

Solid Inventory Accounting Software
- The user interface is quite simple and easily navigated.
- The cost of the product is very competitive, especially with the inventory capabilities.
- The ineffective initial training was a problem, causing delays in processing some work.
- The double accounting system makes adjustments tricky; other systems automatically do both sides of a transaction and you don't necessarily see it; while this is quite evident in the Brightpearl ledger and can make it tricky for the non-accounting minded to follow.

Brightpearl - We love it!
- Brightpearl has increased our abilities to accurately quote existing customers in seconds and have an email delivered in minutes.
- Brightpearl has meant hidden pricing information is available to all. No one keeps special pricing to themselves anymore.
- We use much less paper now than we ever have.
- Options within quotations are harder to create usually with a lot of text needed in the customer letter

Brightpearl is useful, but it needs work.
- It has caused us to oversell our products because it didn't allocate them properly.
- It has caused us to sell the wrong item for the wrong price.
- It has helped with employee efficiency and customer service. As the only customer service representative in the company, I can attest to that fact.

Unhappy
- Time cost - Manually intensive, so more administrative overhead for workers to fulfill orders.

Bright PEARL review
December 21, 2016
Brightpearl really does shine!
- We are managing our shipping out of orders with less man hours than before. Even through our holiday season we saw a decrease in overtime and needed didn't need to pull people from other departments to help get packages out.
- We need less man hours to pick and process orders. It used to be a four step process before orders got to shipping. Now it is a two step process, it is considerably faster.

Brightpearl - a good accounting/sales reporting solution
- It has been very positive with regard to giving us insights into accounting and sales reporting that we previously didn't have.
- Also, the fact that it is web-based it very helpful as some of our employees are not always on site.

Brightpearl makes your day brighter
- As an admin person in my company, I have no access to [ROI] but can say that work is much more efficient with the use of brightpearl.
- The use of system saves us a lot of time, all the info we previously had to manually access is now available at a click of a button.

Brightpearl: A Great Tool for Growing Companies
- It has allowed us to consolidate our use of systems which results in better employee efficiency.
- It has helped bridge the gap between our sales and fulfillment systems, which allows for smoother operational functionality.
- It has helped our company experience less growing pains as we have seen our volume increasing but been able to continue using the same system successfully.

Brightpearl 3 years later!
- We would not be able to trade on our 12 channels without BrightPearl. It's as simple as that.
- We use Amazon and eBay in both EU and USA and manage several virtual warehouses within BP and this works fantastically.
- Our Amazon and eBay sales increase alone is 3x the cost of Brightpearl.
