Dropship software solutions

The company supplies two distinct software packages for online dropshipping. Both of these can help customers to integrate with dropship suppliers

The 2 softwares are the actual Inventory Source software and Flxpoint, which is more in-depth

Flxpoint is a premium software which features more tools than Inventory Source. Unlike Inventory Source, Flxpoint supports the private integration of sellers and suppliers. It also supports cross supplier SKU mapping and invoice reconciliation. Not to mention sales and profitability reporting and B2B reseller management. Larger enterprise companies may prefer the features of Flxpoint. Yet it is necessary to get proper guidance about this. You can talk to an expert from within Inventory Source to see which solution is a better fit

Inventory Resource Review

This company was set up by E-commerce pioneers. These experts felt that small to medium enterprises (SMEs) could handle the competition. But for that, they needed access to a few tools to bring them up to speed

Inventory Source has done its best to put those tools into the hands of the SMEs. That’s one reason why E-commerce has grown in leaps and bounds over the last two decades. Inventory Source puts thousands of products within the reach of an average supplier. Their integrated automation makes dropshipping a much easier task. Or at least it’s easier than it would otherwise be

We’re not for one moment saying that the whole process is problem-free from start to finish. That would be way too ideal. But 90% of the time, it works and that’s a huge point in its favour. There are a few points we’ve found along the way that we’re not so happy with. To begin with, there’s a separate fee for each client. If you source products from more than one client, you will find the fees mounting up in no time

Also, the software provides no free market research tool. This is one area where it does not match its competitors. Having said that, I must add that there are some excellent features in Inventory Source. These features keep users coming back time after time. Number one is the free directory access. The free account to use this directory is free forever. So there's no pressure of having to set up payment after two weeks

It’s an excellent resource which most users cherish. The other advantage is automation. Once the automation is set up, the software updates your data without any problem. It’s both reliable and accurate. Another plus factor for this particular tool is support. The company gives email support when the user runs into problems. We’ve always found that the company responds within a reasonable time

We’ve also found the support to be up to standard. The support team always responds within a reasonable timeframe. They always offer actionable advice which we can apply without any further issues.
