Orderwise Reviews 304

Both Richard and Vicky were fantastic to work with. Richard had been with me through the whole process, taken time to explain certain things in a way in which I understood, and clearly did significant amount of work behind the scenes.

Vicky was great at the implementation and took time to call me after to ensure everything had gone swimmingly.

Thanks to both.

Lauren has been very helpful and patient during our Trade Portal build & Go-Live. She has always followed up on queries and made sure that issues are resolved quickly and kept us in the loop at all times about what was happening. Always friendly and very easy to work with.

Our company has been a long-time customer of this provider, so we were shocked by recent developments with their web-based version. They’ve tried to upsell us to a more expensive monthly plan for a product that won’t even be fully functional until 2026. Originally, we were led to believe the web-based version would launch last year, but now they’ve sold us on something entirely different. Instead, they shifted us to a pricier contract that was misrepresented to us—promised as a web-based solution available within six weeks.
They also claimed this would replace our existing 12-month service and hosting package.
It feels like they’ve morphed into one of those predatory companies like 4com or HiHi, notorious for squeezing every penny out of their customers.
Since the web-based version won’t be complete until 2026—right when the contract ends—it’s clear why we feel misled about this product.

Now that they are moving to a web based version which we thought we would be getting last year they have sold. They moved us to a more expensive contract that was missold to us after it was said the web based version would be available within 6 weeks.

The also said this was to take over from our old 12month service and hosting package.

They have turned into a company like 4com/hihi which are the worse and just screw you for every penny.

The web based version won't even be fully ready until 2026 when the contract is up so you can see why we feel this product has been missold.

Dave was clear and concise with his training methods while ensuring he listened to the us the whole time and adapted brilliantly to the requirements.

Chris, not only brought the horse to water so to speak but encouraged us to drink.
The three days training have been an eye opener to how to use the system well beyond how we have hitherto operated.
Functions we should have been using on a daily basis have been revealed and appropriate training has been given which will make for a hugely slicker running of the business.
Business Intelligence - Wooooh ... fantastic !
Well done to Chris and thank you.

Chris was amazing! I have a much greater understanding of the functionality now, it will make such a difference to my day-to-day work... thank you!

Software is nice and easy to use. But over the last 2 years, the attitude towards service and support seems to be getting worse.

We have been kept in the dark twice in the last year in regards to our account manager; first when they came in to the role but made no effort to reach out to us. We only became aware of them when they responded to a query with an outstanding lack of empathy on an issue which then escalated to a aggressive call to one of our directors.
This account manager has since left but we only found out when trying to get hold of them to discuss an opportunity, their emails bounce back and their direct phone line is cut off.

Then the other problem we experience is the need to pay extortionate amounts of money for 'development requests' on functionality that are then offered to other customers with the same problem in future software updates. Surely a software company would invest their own resources to make their software the best it can be, rather than wait until their customer(s) needs something, have one customer foot the bill then the rest receive it at no extra cost.

I have given 2 stars instead of 1, because there are some good people doing good things. Lucy Spencer was a star recently in deploying an integration for us way ahead of schedule, and Hannah Reilly is good at solving problems that can be solved without the need to pay for development.

I hope in future that this company can transform into one that is customer focused.

Recently had a development finished by the Services team and must say that the experience was great for creation, but delivery was exceptional. Mez contacted me and walked me through how to implement the dev step-by-step, what knock-on effects could happen, things to watch for, just a really thorough job and a good attitude about it all.

Quick and efficient response to my technical enquiry.

Ric has written several reports for us over the years. He has the patience of a saint. Especially on this occasion. We have only started using BI Alerts recently and when the alert didn't appear to work - Ric called, talked me through a couple of checks and resolved the issue - always happy to help .

Yazmin was so helpful and explained clearly what the problem was, how to resolve it and it worked! Really happy as had spent ages trying to sort the issue out myself. Really quick response and delighted that my accounts and ledgers are all correct now! Thank you.

Did a site wide software update last night, clearly never checked it worked and now anyone who uses Orderwise cannot access the system since the update. They don't know what to he problem is and do not know how long it will take to fix. Do not use Orderwise, there has been no progression with this he software for a couple of years and the support has been reduced. It has become outdated and left behind by others

Fantastic support from Michael Jackman, helped resolve an issue with our scripts that stopped orders from importing. Fix was prompt and worked!

Our software system has a few alterations to it which are very specific to the way we operate, & when we needed assistance amending the Delivery Note/Delivery Note Copy, Joe went above & beyond to make sure the layouts both made sense and did not stop until they were complete. He's an absolute credit to the business!

Hannah Reilly on support dealt with support request swiftly and efficiently.

Today we received some more training from Jack Murphy
He was very knowledgeable, helpful and professional. Answered all our questions and more
Followed up with an email covering everything we went over. Has really helped enhance a feature we already had by building on more knowledge and allowing us to use it to its full potential
Thank you Jack!

Hannah was very prompt to reply to my ticket and helped me resolve the issue straight away! Fantastic service!

Had an issue posting to our accounts package, got a call from Debbie at Orderwise, sorted instantly. 10 out of 10 Debbie. Thanks

I highly recommend Hannah! She was incredibly quick and efficient in resolving my issue with OrderWise. Her professionalism and knowledge made the whole process so much smoother. Thank you, Hannah, for your excellent support!
