Prisync

Avantages

TL;DR
After many failed attempts in E-comm (security products), we started using Prisync and suddenly we are selling and with a profit.

And for the long version -
We were trying few times with few advertising agencies to start our E-comm business (selling products online that we buy in stock anyway and therefor have a good price for).

Every attempt was finished after few month each on the losing side and each company gave us feedback for the failed attepts - feedbacl like "change the checkout", "change the design of the website" etc.

We did and still no success.

In the end we understood (after setting up presence in Amazon) that the main issue was pricing, we advertised for products we were not the cheapest in the shopping results so potential customers just went in (and we payed for that traffic), read about the product and went back to Google and bought the cheapest price that was presented.

So after a small research we came across Prisync and after we set up the API conection and the Smart Match feature suddenly we start selling!

What all the advertisers we had before didn't thought of or couldn't solve Prisync did - and in a very good way.

Inconvénients

Didn't found one yet but I started using the API only resently.
As of now things work great from our side

Avantages

Dynamic Pricing and Daily reports automatically generated.

Inconvénients

Initial setup does take some time and man power if done at the organizational level instead of having Prisync manually scrape(Manual Scrape does deliver incredible results).

Avantages

Easy to use, regular reports available, availability monitoring, competitors' sku can be included in the comparison

Inconvénients

Set-up is quite time-consuming. Price comparison is limited to the websites which we set up, whereas we can see more websites from local comparison websites. Need to spend lots of time to maintain and update the URL if competitors' relative products are updated.

Avantages

It is simple and functional and allows you to keep a considerable amount of articles under control by viewing the daily excel file that the platform sends

Inconvénients

Sometimes troubleshooting takes a long time for the support team

Pourquoi passer à Prisync

Avantages

The SmartMatch is the best, the system keeps searching URLs on the web for you, which saves a lot of time.

Inconvénients

The MAP Monitoring has been surprising me, but still, there are maybe some accomplishments to deliver, such as a better report specific for MAP Monitoring. Today I still have to export the data and upload it to my own excel sheet, where I can manage the data the way I can see who is violating our prices and who is not, in a way that combines all competitors' violator listings together.

With Prisync, we've unlocked invaluable insights into our market positioning, making pricing strategy management a breeze.

Inconvénients

We're unable to export the competitor URLs ourselves, but they're happy to do so for us upon request.

Avantages

I get the data that I need about the pricing of our competitors in an easy to use format. The API and customer support are excellent.

Inconvénients

It's a simple product, and does exactly what I need.

Avantages

Interface is really simple and easy to use.
The communication of the team reaaly fast and qualified.
They lead you how to benefit from the system more.

Inconvénients

Change of URLs should be controlled manually

Avantages

Very easy to use and the customer service. Being able to have data every day took us to have better business decisions.

Inconvénients

Would love more datamining. Would love to see more and advance filters, more historica data not only with actual price but integrated with purchases.

Avantages

It is easy to navigate, gives a clear summary of products tracked on the dashboard and allows you to track multiple competitors for each product. It gives you recommendations on pricing based on rules you input into the system and you can star your most important products which are then sent in automated reports to your email to make sure you're aware of price changes for those products.

Inconvénients

Unable to remove out of stock products at the moment without doing it manually.

Avantages

As with all products, there is a little bit of set up required but the reward is there. The ability to monitor thousands of URL's and get real time feedback has been incredible for us to understand where we sit in the market, and where the market is moving.

Inconvénients

I strongly that you use the hybrid system, as you might not get the results you are after if you only choice a "channel based" or the ''url based'' systems.

Avantages

This software delivers its promise with a very high reliability. It is very easy to configure from within and the support on the dashboard is fantastic

Inconvénients

It was a difficult to connect the api to our manages store, since there was not ready made plugin.

Avantages

The way the software is organized makes it very convenient to use. It is very easy to find your products, your competitor products and price increases with this software. Bulk uploading URL's is also amazingly efficient ans saves an unbelievable amount of time.

Inconvénients

I honestly do not have anything bad to say about this software.

Avantages

It gives a good snapshot of where your pricing is at and if any major moves up or down

Inconvénients

set up can take time to import all data and their system doesnt always track the sites as blockers kick in

Avantages

Visual presentation of your price position
Possibility to add a mulitplicator/divider for differences in selling units of your competitor

Inconvénients

Points that could be improved:
1. possibility to update the product cost, product name, brand and category via the batch import tool
2. don't treat URL's with multiplicator/divider as separate competitor
3. Daily number of price changes (Increased/decreased) -> also split this number per competitor (including link)
4. Possibility to filter on ‘I’m cheapest’ + filter “difference > than X%” to have a quick overview of products you are maybe offering to low

Avantages

It is great to have such a readily available business solution for retails companies like us to get informed of the trending pricing for various products and make adequate price adjustment in a timely response.

Inconvénients

It would be great if Prisync could upgrade the solution to automatically update the product list with respective website URL wherever new items/products are uploaded on the running ecommerce website.

Avantages

Great team, very responsive, focused on customer success

Inconvénients

Product matching can always be improved a bit more.

Avantages

Very easy to use interface, when i was first looking at all the different companies offering this type of software the interface looked very out dated and difficult to use. Prisync is the complete opposite everything is so user friendly.

Inconvénients

When adding alot of products sometimes there are issues with the links so keep having to manually check and report the link can be quite time consuming but apart from that there wasn't any issues with the software or the help.

Avantages

It's easy to use and get around, simple but a powerful tool

Inconvénients

Takes 2 days to get the data back to see where your prices are compared with your competitors

Avantages

The program gives you a feeling of security that you can always keep an eye on the prices of your customers - but also on the competing products. This way we can easily adjust the prices to the current market situation at short time.

Inconvénients

Unfortunately, it is very time-consuming to enter all products into the tool. In addition, some customers block the tool, so that no stocks can be played out. However, this only affects a small part of our customers.

Avantages

the tool provides a quick overview of listings, availability and pricing on our products and competing products

Inconvénients

* the most difficult was to onboard all items and URLs to resellers
* too many email reports

Avantages

It's really easy to use and you have all the info available with two clics. If you need anything, you have a great customer service that will help you in minutes!

Inconvénients

No problems at this moment. Everithing that happened to me has been cheked and repaired the same day

Avantages

We were looking for a tool that could help us monitors our competitor's prices. We decided to try Prisync and have to say we are very delighted with our choice. This tool is straightforward to use; the information provided is very valuable and easy to understand.

All in all, great tool, great team, great company and great experience.

Inconvénients

For whatever reason, if any of the prices have a tracking issue, support is easily reachable. The support team are very active in dealing with your requests, quick to fix and notify you when that request has been fixed.

Avantages

- the fact that is very easy to use, very good user experience
- the possibility of batch uploading products
- the customer service is impressive, everyone is very helpful

Inconvénients

- even if you can monitor the prices in every currency, in the end, they all get converted to the one currency set of the account. As pan-european business, with products sold in different currencies, it would be helpful to see them in the country currency and not in the base currency of the account.
- the fact that price history is shown just for the previous 30 days

Avantages

The software is easy to use and when help is needed One mail or chat is enough.
New functions are constantly being added.

Inconvénients

Sometimes a link does not work while the item is just in stock
