Auctiva

What do you like best?

Value, the monthly cost for the value you get is better than any platform in the multi-channel inventory space. If you are selling mostly on ebay and amazon, Auctiva is great. It does what it says, syncs product inventory, price, quantity, between ebay and amazon, it does the sync faster than other services I've tried, which lowers the chance I oversell, which would have a negative impact on my seller ratings on amazon and/or ebay. Auctiva's ebay tools are deep, from mobile responsive templates, to scheduling when to launch listing, and the ir scrolling gallery, which allows me to cross market my products on my ebay listings.

What do you dislike?

Their multi-channel solution is relatively new, Auctiva clearly has experience and a depth of features on the ebay marketplace, but the amazon feature set is pretty sparse. It does perform product synchronization, which the most important feature, but does not support any amazon international sites.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Management of my product inventory across ebay and amazon was very difficult, especially for products I was just starting to sell where I did not have high enough volume. I had a couple instance where a product sold well on amazon, and before I could pull it down form ebay, it sold and i had to cancel the ebay order or an amazon order, both of which would have a negative impact on my seller score. Auctiva takes care of this, as I get sales on Amazon, my quantity is decremented on ebay automatically. As I update my pricing for products, its updated on both amazon and ebay, automatically. Its a huge time saver and helps ensure I don't oversell and have to cancel orders, which has effected my seller ratings in the past.
