Fishbowl delivers advanced inventory and order management, industry-best QuickBooks and Xero integrations, AI-driven forecasting, and expert in-house support. With built-in automation, real-time data management, and actionable insights, Fishbowl helps you fulfill easier, increase margins, and scale with confidence.
Cin7 gives you limited functionality, a long list of hidden fees, outsourced support in Sri Lanka, and rigid volume caps that make it tough to grow—and easy to outgrow.
With Fishbowl, you get fast answers from in-house experts who know the product inside and out. Live chat, phone, callback, and email.
Cin7 relies on outsourced support from non-experts in Sri Lanka. Delays of 48+ hours are common for even simple issues—unless you’re paying $550/month just to skip the line.
Fishbowl’s mobile app does it all—pick, pack, ship—clean, simple, and fast from any device.
Cin7 forces you to juggle a patchwork of clunky apps, confusing workflows, weak barcode support, and constant second-guessing.
Fishbowl lets you grow freely. No limits on SKUs, users, or orders.
Cin7 adds costs at every step. More users means higher fees. More SKUs means more charges. Growth becomes a burden instead of a benefit.
Fishbowl’s built-in AI assistant, Athena, AI delivers real impact—demand forecasting, smart order recommendations, BOM insights, and part-level visibility, no data analyst required.
Cin7’s Inventoro add-on? It’s several times more expensive than Fishbowl’s AI, doesn’t have an AI assistant to help you make sense of data, and offers surface-level suggestions and rigid reports.
Fishbowl seamlessly integrates with QuickBooks Online, Desktop, and Xero—earning 4.7/5 on Intuit and 4.8/5 on Xero, with "best inventory software for QuickBooks users” shoutouts from Forbes and Newsweek.
Cin7 struggles with compatibility, suffers frequent sync errors, and holds a lackluster 3.1/5 rating on the Intuit App Store with plenty of angry users to back it up.
Fishbowl connects directly to Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, BigCommerce, and more—with no third-party hacks.
Cin7 needs third-party apps for basic ecommerce connections. Sync issues and surprise integration fees are the norm.
Fishbowl handles real-time rate shopping and label printing right in the platform using Shippo—no extra tools, no extra cost.
Cin7 makes you bolt on another third-party just to ship, adding complexity and another monthly bill.
“We were looking for a platform to help us keep up with our inventory quantities, costs, ordering, and manufacturing. Before, we were doing this with a system that wasn't really designed to do this causing us to have to do a lot of these tasks by hand. Since adopting this system in February 2024, we have been so pleased with the results - even our CPA has said ‘your COGS have never been more accurate!’”
