Our Verdict…

Pomodo really blows the competition out of the water with its integrated inventory management and fair pricing, making it a sweet deal for e-commerce businesses. However, its Android-only app availability was a bit of a downer for our iOS-loving pals.

The absence of an open API left more to be desired, but their dedicated US-based support and willingness to assist with customizations compensated for this to a certain extent. Yet, if you’re heavily into iOS or need specific custom integrations, you might need to look at other options.
