Fishbowl Inventory is the accounting of items, component components, and raw materials used or sold by a firm. As a business owner, you manage inventory to ensure that you have enough product on hand and to identify when there is a shortage. Global supply networks change on a regular basis, placing inventory planning and management operations under stress. Manufacturers and wholesale distributors that pick when, when, and how your product is delivered require flexibility and may have unanticipated wait times.
We use it for inventory management, manufacturing management, product and recipe management for procurement of individual ingredients, allocation, vehicle assignment, costs analysis, and event financials. This helps us move away from spreadsheets and move towards being in the 21st century. Fishbowl Manufacturing is applicable most to all industries. We were not able to use any other platform except for Fishbowl Manufacturing when it comes to what we needed from inventory management software.
- Inventory Management.
- Ingredient and Recipe Management.
- Cost Control and Variation.
- Useability is a little dated with the UI.
- Linking some of their modules together that don't currently link
- A quicker onboarding would be appreciated, but there is a lot to learn so I understand.
- Purchase Orders
- Auto Purchase orders
- Inventory Management
- Cost analysis
- Allocation
- Recipes
- Positive: Decreased time spent on copy/pasting in spreadsheets.

If you rely on accurate reports, Fishbowl is not for you
We use Fishbowl for all our production, purchasing, and order processing. We use Fishbowl in conjunction with QuickBooks.
- Bill of Materials
- Inventory Management
- Reporting: Many of the reports that are provided for free with Fishbowl are useless in the context of everyday manufacturing and production planning. Some reports provide inaccurate information. In order to use get useful and correct reports, outside developers must be paid (a new or modified report may cost anywhere from $150 to $2000)
- Customer service can be hit or miss. In our experience, a knowledgeable person is rarely available, but for the most part customer service has no idea how real manufacturing works to provide reasonable answers to fix Fishbowl shortfalls.
- Integration with ShipStation for simplified shipping
- Integration with QuickBooks
- Use of ShipStation simplified our shipments
- Lack of accurate reporting added many unnecessary work hours
Fishbowl is more useful than QuickBooks Manufacturing if you operate complex manufacturing with multiple multi layered BOMS

Functional and affordable
We are a wholesaler that supplies products to non-profits. We manage the shipment of those products. Each "bill to" may have multiple "ship to" addresses. Each client may ship to thousands of supporters. We import the orders and address data and ship the requested materials to the individuals, then aggregate the shipping data to bill the client.
- Maintaining accurate inventory data
- Integrating well with the supporting software
- Accurate reporting
- Allow easier customization of reports
- Lower pricing on Plug Ins
- tracking inventory
- receiving products
- reporting
- efficient handling of products
- reduced paperwork, accurate communication of data
Fishbowl could be tailored to accommodate our needs and to integrate with other providers to offer the seamless work flow. Others that I investigated were much more expensive or couldn't do the tasks we were requiring. The final analysis was that Fishbowl offered a cost effective way for us to manage our business.
