## Reviews

### "The ultimate platform for scaling your business" — 5.0/5

> **Pontus** | *26 April 2021* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, customization, integrations, pricing
> 
> **Cons**: I do not have any specific cons for this product
> 
> We've had a great transition from Shopify to Centra with the help of the fantastic Centra team. We've been up and running for the past two months and I only have good things to say about the software.

### "A very flexible e-commerce platform that has yet to show weakness" — 5.0/5

> **Jonathan** | *12 October 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: All businesses we have worked with have so far been possible to implement using Centra. Clients can start small and grow with the platform as they need. Third party integrations are extremely solid
> 
> **Cons**: API documentation and custom fields can be improved. There are semi-reliable options for the latter

### "ICIW Implementation" — 4.0/5

> **Hugo** | *13 October 2023* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The base features of the app - products, orders, vouchers make alot of sense and provide a lot of flexibility that we have lacked using our last platform.I really appreciate the GraphQL-APIs which allow us to inhouse more tasks and become more efficient without the need for consultancies to assist\!Ease of plugin integration is also a very welcome change for us\!Being able to separate B2B and B2C logic is something that helps us very much.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features:Gift CardsIt's hard for our ERP to distinguish between normal vouchers and a gift card - currently BrightCom, our ERP consultancy, have the same issue with all Centra customers.We are also unable to create Gift Cards through KCO, which was not communicated / raised in the discovery phase. This has forced us to create a sub-par solution to be able to sell Gift Cards.Feeds:This was probably the biggest hurdle for us - migrating from an existing feed structure to the Centra one proved to be almost impossible. The biggest issue is not being able to set the formatting  and  as we choose. I think the ability to use a delimiter between Product Number and Variant Number would help a lot.Another big hurdle, which I hope we will be able to solve using Depict, sorting by bestsellers and news.
> 
> Very good, a necessary step forward for our brand to be able to adapt and stay up to date with trends. I also believe this new flexibility and time-to-market of design changes will help us communicate our brand more effectively on site.

> **Anton** | *10 January 2022* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
