We have been working with Brightpearl since 2023 when we launched our UK website selling high-end furniture, lighting and home decor. The partnership has been excellent and the software is a key enabler for the growth of our business. It is not the perfect solution, but I have never seen a SAS system that works exactly as you would want it to across all facets of a business. However, we are a complex business with multiple inventory locations, multiple markets, multiple customer types etc, and the Brightpearl team have been amazing at helping us to adapt their solution to our needs. It has been one of the most collaborative tech partnerships that I have enjoyed in my career, I would highly recommend them.

We signed on with Brightpearl over 3 years ago before they were acquired by Sage. We've been overall very happy with Brightpearl. We have multiple brands, two warehouse locations, and various sales channels where we sell our products, which results in complex order workflows at times. Brightpearl's automation rules have been a huge help to us in letting us configure how orders flow through the system. Brightpearl has allowed us to better manage our inventory and centralize reporting for all of our sales channels. I do think there could be some improvement made to the integration with Shopify but it's not a deal breaker for us. For example, your products have to be built separately in each system instead of having the ability to build a product in one system and have it transfer over to the other. There also isn't a good workflow for making order edits in Shopify and having that transfer over to Brightpearl. The product improvements seem to have slowed down since Sage's acquisition but we are hopeful to see more improvements coming soon!

We have been working with Brightpearl since 2022 for our backend systems and accounting integration . The integration with Shopify works very well and allows us to seamlessly track our orders as well as managing stock for multiple sites.

However since using Shopify, orders are seamlessly downloaded and the whole work process is simplified.It works seamlessly with order and customer information appearing in our Brightpearl system very quickly and shipping information such as tracking numbers fed back into shopify and emailed to customers without any issues.

We have been working with Brightpearl for a number of years now for our backend systems. When we migrated our company website to Shopify in 2021 we used this integration created by the Brightpearl team and I'm please to say: it just works. We have never had any problem with the app and all our orders and refunds flow between the two systems seamlessly.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with BrightPearl . Their advertising and product descriptions grossly undersell the complexity of making their product work. What was supposed to be a simple and straightforward process turned into an absolute nightmare. Sean (US REP) promised one thing when really you have to use two different systems. First off, their marketing made it seem like using their product would be a breeze. However, once I received it and tried to set it up, I realized that it required a degree in rocket science just to get it functioning properly. The instructions provided were vague at best, and they want you to use and update two different systems. Not only did we waste money on a product that doesn't live up to its promises, but I also wasted countless hours trying to figure it out. The frustration and stress caused by dealing with Brightpearl have left me feeling completely dissatisfied and ripped off. Save yourself the headache and avoid this company at all costs. They clearly prioritize sales over customer satisfaction and have no qualms about deceiving consumers with false advertising. Trust me, you're better off spending your money elsewhere. All the 5 stars reviews are from the UK or Europe not the United States STAY AWAY!

We began our Brightpearl journey just 5 months ago and after an intense 2 months prep, went live 3 months ago. The team we worked with to get us ready for golive (led by Bianca), was a dream team! We couldn't imagine doing a project of this scale without the BP expertise and experience. Bianca gave that extra mile and took the time to really understand our business and the best way to implement BP to ensure we got the most out of it. Since going live, our team have taken all aspects of BP on board and our operations, customer service and warehouse are all seeing benefits beyond what we had hoped for in ease of use, order turn around, time saving, customer experience and accuracy. Our next phase is Demand Planner and the extended Warehouse Management System which we are all looking forward to introducing into our warehouse environment!

We have used Brightpearl for over 10 years and we have found it a very intuitive and helpful app. It is particularly suitable for merchants who are focused on buying finished goods and selling them across multiple channels, brands and locations. We like the fact all elements are within one system and that the entire team can easily and quickly access brightpearl in the cloud and run reports.

We have multiple Shopify stores connected to Brightpearl using their app. Easy to set up and make changes. Brightpearl keep their app up to date. They also have very helpful support staff who are able to check audit logs on a granular level.

I use multiple Shopify accounts integrated with Brightpearl and really appreciate how easy the work flow is for all the orders being placed, shipped and invoiced. With the right automations in place it is completely seamless.

I like that I can see all the order information easily and that any issues that arise are looked into and taken seriously. It's hard to download large amounts of data in one go (reporting) and BrightPearl sometimes crashes when doing so.

We have been using Brightpearl for 6 years now and the difference it has made to the efficiency of our stock control cannot be overemphasized. Not sure how we managed before. Highly recommended.

Brightpearl has been a really good solution for us. The Shopify connector works well, fast and reliable. We've also had great support from the Brightpearl team
