TrueCommerce B2BGateway EDI

EDI Specialist

Vorteile:

Easy of use, convince, appearance and format.

Nachteile:

Did not have any dislikes with the application.

Mixed reviews - great if you don't require a lot of changes

Kommentare: My company uses both SPS and B2Bgateway simultaneously. The pricing is definitely a big sell and once things are implemented I have very little issues. I love the ability to update and manage my own cross reference tables. What really prevents me from giving this a top notch review is two things. One - you can't pull PO files, only the EDI data for the POs. We have to supply PO copies to our auditors and they really don't like the EDI file. My second concern is support. With SPS I get a dedicated team who manages my updates, my integrations and will direct me to the right person if they can't take care of my problem. I essentially have a project manager. With B2B I have to email a support ticketing system for anything! There is no contact you can go to which is a problem for some of our trading partners who want a technical EDI person to talk to. My customer is in Asia, I am on the west coast and B2B support seems to be on the east coast. I send a ticket and it takes at least 24- 48 hours. If you manage to get the same person managing your ticket you might be okay but it seems to be the luck of the draw. If you prefer to have someone walking you through stuff like adding new integrations and updating/testing existing ones, B2B is not for you.

Vorteile:

I think for the most part the user interface is pretty good and easy to navigate. The design is clean and not terribly "clicky." The best feature is most likely the pricing.

Nachteile:

Customer Support takes a frustratingly long time, even for something simple. I haven't done a full on implementation from start to finish but I am in the midst of moving my connection from one ERP to another and reassigning a connection for a trading partner.

Initial phase issues

Kommentare: It was a good tool to utilize all the activities from end to end. Inventory, purchase order and vendor registration with supply management is good.

Vorteile:

In the initial phase, it is very difficult to integrate. Once the bugs are removed then it takes no time to run its program with ERP integration NetSuite. Gettings inventory, purchase order and vendor registration with supply management is good to go ahead.

Nachteile:

The slowness of the app and integration was not in workflow manner.

Mixed Review

Kommentare: I really love the Built for NetSuite concept B2B has however, it seems as though there is some basic functionality that NetSuite has that it does not support as well as functionality that other EDI solutions hosted outside of NetSuite have that B2B does not. Thus far they have been able to give us everything we have asked for or need but it takes a long time to get it the solutions created and live or the fixes completed. When I say long time, I am not talking a week or two... Months. Their lack of communication on open support cases isn't great either. There have been numerous instances where I have asked for an update on a case multiple times before receiving a response.

Vorteile:

We love the fact we get to manage our own cross reference tables as this was one of the main reasons for switching providers. Managing errors and things of that nature are fairly easy as well. The fact it is all within NetSuite is a huge bonus!

Nachteile:

Customer support and set up time frames are extremely long. I am not sure if they are just experiencing growing pains or are short handed but the lead time to get a resolution from a support case it a lot longer than it used to be and is getting longer and longer by the day.

Excellent folks to work with, solved our problem easily.

Vorteile:

Ease of use, helpful support, problem free. Integrates easily with out accounting software.

Nachteile:

None
