Exceptional powerful software that grows your business
I've used them for 10+ years. It's a strategic and essential ingredient within my business. The team running it are innovative and ahead of the game.
PROSAlot of work has gone into improving the system. I've used it for 10 years or so. It 100% stable and easily replaces 1-2 full time staff. The team behind it are constantly looking to improve and stay ahead of the game.
CONSIt has some niggles, like all software, but their support is exceptional 24 hr service literally.
Reason for choosing Linnworks
Far superior technology that grows with your business
Reasons for switching to Linnworks
Better value - you pay a fixed price, not a % of turnover.

Good all round option
Overall an very good system especially when you take into account the cost of it compared to other systems. Does a lot but could still do thing better while providing important business task within the system.
PROS- Has a lot of features that other systems may charge for - Has a chat systems for support - Can integrate with website and online marketplaces - Can integrate with many couriers - Can create Rules for dispatch and integrated invoices
CONS- System looks a little old - Can sometimes not works as you need - Feel like some processes could be simplified - poor reporting and unable to link to accounts well or without paying more
Reasons for switching to Linnworks
Cloud Commerce Pro was a poor system and they could not match anything they promised.

The perfect tool to help manage your multi-channel systems
I love the user interface and how it is so quick and easy to not only manage your product data and key information but also how it integrates with just about every major piece of software at the press of a button
CONSThe lack of SAP integration forces us to not use linnworks in its full capacity
Reason for choosing Linnworks
Cost was a big deciding factor but the Linnworks support we receive is second to none and any issues we have are either fixed or options are given to us to get third party developers involved

Hi Tom, Thanks for the positive review! We love hearing how our software has enabled you to manage multiple sales channels with ease. I'll make sure to pass on your kind words to the support team, they will really appreciate it. Thanks again. Lucy Allen, Product Marketing Manager

Overpromised features of software and upfront director of sales lied about multiple items
Terrible. I wish I never agreed to a 12 month contract with them.
PROSAt first, I liked the look and functionality of it. However, they could care less about having a good working relationship with you. They will continue to charge you if the software is not a good fit for you. I could not be more frustrated with poor service and responses. This has been the WORST experience thus far working with a software company.
CONSCustomer service is a joke. I have no clue who is in charge. The [sensitive content hidden] jumps in when I have an issue rather than the account rep who was assigned to me. They are slimy and have lied multiple times. They say they offer demand forecast but they do NOT. They said you can track sales per sku same day but they do not. There are so many bugs in this software. Not useful at all. You are much better off using your own spreadsheets to track inventory.

Good basis for a eccomerce business
Using this software daily in order to process orders, manage stock and run basic reports is obviously invaluable to a eccomerce business, overall the system pretty much does what it says it's going to do. I do find that Linnworks support is often lacking and more often than not I have had to solve issues myself which can be frustrating. Setting up new marketplaces and introducing new processes can be quite hard to achieve without painful interactions with Linn Support.
PROSLinnworks offers a fairly user-friendly system that can be somewhat customisable to what a small/medium eccomerce business needs. The order management system is on par with many other competitors and the new desktop version of the order processing is far more intelligent however does look a little cluttered so can be hard to use in a rush. The listing process for many marketplaces in pretty standard and does offer the ability to create an almost endless list of properties to suit your product types.
CONSThe software can be slow and buggy somewhat, there are also issues with using certain functionalities on Firefox/Chrome so often you will need to have both browsers open which isn't ideal.

I'm leaving them because I need Xero integration built in
Ok, staff are nice but software lacks Xero functionality that I need.
PROSReally helped me get control of the warehouse
CONSHard to update product data in bulk. The training materials online are not well organised and lack structure meaning you are dependent on support which is not amazing

centralize sales from various channels - all fundamental improvement request are ignored
well, it has been helping to grow but the recurring lack of support and unclear development strategy is really turning this experience into a bitter one.
PROSCentralize all our sales platforms.......
CONSAll fundamental improvement request are ignored. They release new functions update but these have bugs or design errors. Despiting reporting them and somehow confirmed, nothing has been done to fix them causing daily usage to be painful.
Reason for choosing Linnworks

Great order processing solution for SME, but can be clunky
We outgrew the solution and found it increasingly frustrating to use. but it can get the job done for smaller businesses with lower volumes for sure.
PROSEasy to set up and use. Proactive support. Low cost solution. Support many key sales channels OOTB.
CONSMapping skus by channel is clunky. Slow response on scheduled tasks. Occasionally unhelpful error messages. Clunky import and mapping via csv. Inventory control can create unexpected results at times.

Suck you in and then spit you out.
fairly easy to use.. nad then they hit you with a price rise once you have got used to the software
CONSRaising the Prices by 350% and saying the majority of customers will pay less. Seeing as none of their prices have decreased they are lying saying that the majority will pay less as the majority will be small customers on the lowest price bracket.
