### Most mentioned pros

- Its reliable performance and seamless integrations support cross-platform interoperability, enabling teams to maintain operational efficiency at scale. While there is still room for improvement in onboarding, configurability, and workflow customization, SPS Commerce continues to deliver value by streamlining business processes, improving collaboration, and supporting data-driven decision-making.
- It is a reliable EDI platform that supports secure data exchange, order management, and improved transaction visibility. While setup, integration mapping, performance, and support response time can be improved, the platform adds good value by reducing manual work and improving business process efficiency
- SPS also maintains a large trading partner network, which simplifies onboarding new EDI customers and helps ensure compliance with customer-specific requirements.

### Most mentioned cons

- I'm adding a new vendor number with a current trading partner that's already setup with SPS and i find it's taking to much time to get it done.
- We have multiple subsidiaries using SPS that created some confusion as a customer would be set up into the wrong subsidiary but this issue was corrected in a timely manner.
- I can't utilize the support chat for DMEDI issues because they don't even have logins to the program.

- Reviewed: June 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I have not had to reach out to anyone at the SPS Commerce site because everything has been running smoothly. Direct communication with the person from Grainger who placed the order would really be a plus.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 3/5

- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Recent updates have made using the confirmation of orders very easy to use. The check for errors feature is a great way of making sure everything is set correctly before sending the confirmation.

#### Cons

The monthly cost is still pricey, but SPS Commerce has at least improved the ease of using the site.

We switch from Liaison because the customer support provided was not very good. Response time for system issues was very slow.

### CPG Industry-Fueled EDI Fulfillment Brilliantly Simplified

Triple-grade A, top-notch overall experience: EDI enables the timely acknowledgment of PO's (sales opportunities) to be serviced in as timely a manner as possible with the help of SPS Commerce...in the CPG industry, EDI is an absolute must and this platform affords our organization the ease of access with our various national and regional retail partners to conduct seamless and streamlined transactions. I recommend this service to small and medium-sized enterprises that only seek the finest tools in their respective trades and fields to get the job done right.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Seamless integration with varied retail partners through EDI link up, real-time receipt of digital documents from party to party, ability to accept or reject PO revisions with select retail partners, endless types of transactions to conduct business through in the software platform (from initial PO receipt up to freight/logistics servicing and finally to the sought after finish line with the fulfillment/invoicing of PO's), back-end deduction claims management, debit-credit adjustments and remittance advices simplified...and then some.

#### Cons

Manual inputting of data points for all of our PO's serviced via our various national/regional retail partners...has to be a workaround to digitally uplink fulfillments and invoices from ERP platform (NetSuite). At least in my experience, it has all been manual submissions but otherwise, the above reviews would be flawless. Perhaps, the same rule of thought could apply to advance shipment notices for uploading signed BOL's but not as much of a hindrance compared to our constant billing cycle to maintain.

We are very pleased with the overall experience SPS Commerce Fulfillment provides.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The modules are neatly labeled and streamlined for efficient order processing. (Receive,Ship and Process Orders effortlessly!) Easy to train new users with the simple. straightforwardness of the software. The ability to consolidate our customers onto one EDI system has been a huge help in streamlining our internal processes, as well as reducing processing times and order accuracy.

#### Cons

Implementing customers that utilize a third party software has proven some features not usable / compatible. (ie. order revisions, customized fields, etc.) It's a work in progress, but we are happy to see more of our customers moving to EDI software like SPS Commerce.

#### Reasons for choosing SPS Commerce

We mainly chose SPS out of necessity, to satisfy a customer's requirement. We are happy that with the evolution of electronic software, that we have been able to replace new customer requirements with the compatibility of SPS commerce in place of their preferred provider.

### Vantage Point is the best EDI software I've used

Vantage Point is very user-friendly software, and has been extremely reliable. Data Masons support team has been outstanding to work with - on the rare occasion we have a question or problem, they're very responsive and we get a resolution very quickly.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Vantage Point makes it easy for my business users to see and manage their EDI data, so that I only have to get involved if there's a problem. I love that Data Masons has maps already written for our customer's specs, so that development / implementation time is reduced.

#### Cons

It took a little time to get used to having separate instances for each country, but that has worked out well to be able to isolate our EDI partners, and the business users only see the customers they support so that reduces confusion.

#### Reasons for choosing SPS Commerce

Data Masons provided the maps to use with Vantage Point, with BizTalk we would have had to build our own maps and that just wasn't practical.

#### Reasons for switching to SPS Commerce

We were changing from a UNIX / SAP shop to a Windows / Microsoft Dynamics shop and Vantage Point was our best option.

### SALES DEPT MORE CONCERNED WITH MONEY THAN CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIPS

We have been using SPS Commerce for quite a while to process orders for one of our major vendor partners who uses DC's to disperse to their stores. Another mid-size chain opted to used them as well. While it takes about 3-4 times as long to process these orders due to the number of steps involved in verification, we were fine with the partnership. When one of our major vendor partners indicated they were going to start using SPS Commerce to create greater visibility, we realized it would increase our volume with SPS Commerce (SC) significantly. The SC sales team was aggressive and persistent in pushing for confirmation of the additional partnership agreement. We were sold on a flat rate contract, which if it started in line with the Vendor Partner implementation date would have been a good deal. When the Vendor Partner delayed, we were basically told "too bad", rather than SC in turn being willing to push the date. They are collecting triple the rate yet not doing the work of processing the orders for this Vendor Partner. It has completely soured our view of SC. We will be addressing this issue with the Vendor Partner and urging them to consider a competitor alternative for order processing.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

It creates visibility and the tech support team is helpful.

#### Cons

Lack of integrity from the sales team. We were sold on a flat rate contract set to align with a vendor partnership compliance date. Even though the contract date was a month early (SPS Commerce set the deadline to "lock in" the flat rate to a full month before the implementation date with the major Vendor Partner), the sales rep indicated we would see early implementation of order delivery by signing up. When the compliance implementation date was delayed by the vendor partner, the sales team refused to push the start date or offer any delay in the new heavy fees that are triple the old rate. To date, we are paying another fulfillment company for processing this vendor partners orders, while also paying SPS Commerce triple what our previous months average was to not process them. Not the makings for a win-win partnership.

The worst part of this experience is that you only get results when you kick and scream. Despite the fact that they have in no way delivered on time, they have charged us a ton month by month. I'm running the company, but until I get on the phone and say, hey, what's happening here, things don't really move. And then, inevitably, they stall. I don't want to be the one having to micromanage this process, but they've left me little choice.

#### Cons

I wish I didn't have to write this review. I have had so many calls with these folks promising that things would be different, that I feel like the partner that keeps accepting back their cheating spouse, so that I feel foolish for believing them. They said 6-8 weeks for set-up. We are on 9 months, and still not done. Every time there's an issue, they point fingers at other people, like the retailers or the connection folks. But they are the ones taking the money, so they are responsible for the product as a whole.

#### Reasons for choosing SPS Commerce

Some of our retailers used them, and when we first spoke, when I explained our issues, they said they could help with the PDFs we need for some retailers (packing slips and shipping labels). Our last call, they claimed to have no knowledge of this, which shows that the sales team has not sufficient contact with the implementation team.

The billing practices at SPS are heinous. They are disingenuous and try to upsell like crazy! The customer service is lacking. The integrations to warehouse WMS and Quickbooks Online are slow and clunky... sometimes it takes several hours for docs to integrate. It's not a great product, but then you're stuck with their software because of the huge upfront costs to integrate.

#### Pros

#### Cons

No competent SPS representative supporting integration to warehouse. SPS salespeople oversell the features and capabilities with insufficient knowledge of how product works. Customer service is almost non-existent; tickets are generated but no response is given.

We used SPS commerec for a large client and things were fine. We tried setting them up for EDI for anoteh rlarge client and it was anightmare. We asked for pricing and only after we waited 6 weeks to get pricing and sent an email letting them know we would move on due to lack of communication did we suddenly get an email checking in. Rep had no idea what we needed although we discussed extensively when we met that we needed pricing to move forward and would wait to hear back. We signed up and got charged a LOT more money than other EDI companies. We thought we would only pay SPS but then later found out through our warehouse there would be other fees if we needed to set it up through them. Started paying monthly fees even though the warehouse never sent it up and we had to cancel. Every time we try emailing them about thsi it takes an average of 9 days to get a response.

#### Cons

The high Cost and Customer "service" were dissapointing.

MAPADOC push from SPS eliminates the need for us to input the orders manually.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The push of information through MAPADOC to our organization's software works well. When there are issues, help from Customer Service has been readily available.

#### Cons

One of the biggest issues that seems to plague SPS Commerce Fulfillment is the push of information back across MAPADOC. We do changes in our organization's software as well as having to do them in SPS. This increases the chances of errors. For example, when an invoice is created the information is not propagated from SPS nor our system through MAPADOC so the data has to be entered all over again. The invoice document is created off an existing order so the invoice should have all data entered from that order with the option to make changes if necessary. This would allow us to verify all items prior to sending the invoice. The Quick Entry is wonderful for a single entry order but not practical for extensive orders. Another issue that we seem to have is when there is error in processing a document. The document is tagged as having errors but there is no further information as to what exactly is the issue. The error is not highlighted on the document. If the error was highlighted it would save time in the correction of the error.

Pretty much the worst company I've ever worked with. They tell you what ever you want to hear but they don't follow through on anything. You ask to talk to supervisors and never hear from them. You just kep paying and paying with no ROI

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 1/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 1/5

#### Pros

As sold it was a no brainer, they already had the connectors for all these companies, there would be almost no setup time.

#### Cons

Totally mislead at every step. 6 months into this project we are still not setup, the communications is almost zero, they have no idea what they are doing and n top of it, you pay for all the EDI documents you signed up for each month even if there is no use or even not even setup.

#### Reasons for choosing SPS Commerce

We chose SPS because of their claim to have all this pre-built with the vendors. This is not true.
