## Reviews

### "EXCELLENT SUPPORT" — 5.0/5

> **CAROLYN** | *30 August 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Wed based so no server needed and once familiar with the product navigation is rather easy
> 
> **Cons**: A bit difficult to set up initially, however I am not very computer literate so if I can do it then anyone can with some help
> 
> As soon as I started dealing with \[sensitive content hidden\] I felt more confident as he was very knowledgable and patient with me

-----

### "Despatch Cloud Review." — 4.0/5

> **Lynn** | *20 May 2024* | Package/Freight Delivery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the selection of integrations available this is a selling point.
> 
> **Cons**: The ticketing system could be simplified.
> 
> I have personally dealt with DC since we started using your system and the help I have received from the IT team especially \[sensitive content hidden\] has been outstanding \[sensitive content hidden\] and I have worked through many issues I have encountered and he understand how I take things in so helps me in a way I can pick up what he means that is invaluable.

### "We've been using Despatch Cloud for 4 years now and we aren't looking back\!" — 4.0/5

> **Nathan** | *10 May 2024* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We have had a really easy time getting custom work finished, and with the public API, it makes it super easy to do custom functions. Recently, we needed a new courier integration, and I worked closely with \[sensitive content hidden\]&#10; to get it completed. It was all completely pain-free to work with the team at DC.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few limitations with the system from our perspective, but as we are not a traditional warehouse, this was bound to happen. We have managed to find workarounds for these issues by using the public API, and we are using the base functionality to its strengths.

### "Great resource providing excellent value" — 5.0/5

> **Laura** | *21 May 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The order processing system is very good, enabling efficiencies in our warehouse
> 
> **Cons**: Time lags between our front end system and Despatch Cloud in terms of order transfer and stock management
> 
> Our onboarding experience was not great, but since then Sam has worked really hard to pull things around and be supportive to us. The system is excellent value for money and any problems that arise are receiving resolutions

### "Fantastic company to deal with\!" — 5.0/5

> **Freddie** | *09 August 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We were previously using Cloud Commerce Pro, after years of false promises, countless bugs causing major disruption to our business and price increases we decided to leave after discovering Despatch Cloud. We were assigned a helpful customer onboarding supervisor who guided us through the entire process. Obviously there was a large input from us at this stage but DC also put in a lot of work to help get us up and running asap. There was no upfront cost for all this leg work on Despatch Clouds part unlike many other companies. The system itself is excellent. The first huge improvement we noticed was the speed of the system itself, the load speed is around 10 x faster than what we were experiencing with CCP. The system is completely customisable so you can adapt it to your internal process, in effect creating various folders containing orders set of your own bespoke rules. The ongoing support is excellent, when a rare issue crops up, customer support genuinely want to help solve the issue and generally solved quickly with disruption kept to an absolute minimum. The pricing is reasonable, the customer service is great, the software itself is fantastic. Despatch cloud is without doubt the best solution for us, I’ve got no doubt we’ll be happy customers for many years to come. Thank you Despatch Cloud.
> 
> **Cons**: There was a few issues with the onboarding early on. We were able to speak to a manager, voice our concerns and a solution was found quickly, if anything a positive.
