Cin7 Omni

Vorteile

CIN7 works excellently as a Sales Tool, CRM, and Order Management software when connecting your eCommerce platform. it is excellent for Small businesses looking to get a grip on a more enterprise-level Inventory Management system.

Nachteile

CIN7 works great for a company not focused on manufacturing and just distribution. Due to CIN7 not being able to Commit stock for Backorders. Also not being able to have a Barcode System is a negative aspect.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Cin7 Omni

Vorteile

Moving to a new system is always a worry for a multi currency multi million pound business. I felt the transition from an outdated desktop system was pretty smooth. The import features are excellent and extremely flexible for Customer/Supplier lists, stock,PO's and SO's. The ability to have multiple currency cost pricing on inventory items is excellent. Adding contract and discount pricing to clients on an individual bases works really well. Stock kits or BOM work nicely and the connection to our external accounting package seems solid.

Nachteile

I feel the WMS side for the warehouse needs more attention. The ability to see more order detail from the order screen is required, the ability to expand an order view from that screen would have been really useful to see what items are on the job as a minimum without having to release to pick to see the order. The packing section does not allow to select multiple orders to the same destination for packing together. Not being able to allocate a supplier bill to multiple PO's without merging them into a single PO.

Nachteile

WMS system is very basic and limiting for what we needed have to integrate another system now.

Vorteile

Cin7 Promises to do all the things you need

Nachteile

Cin7 has bugs throughout the system and the support is non existent to the point you simply cannot run a business using this software. We have had an inventory value difference of $80k that cannot be explained or fixed for over 12 months with zero support.

Vorteile

it is very detailed but yet very easy to use and navigate

Nachteile

sometimes the ability to not customize certain areaas

Vorteile

I liked to easy to use features, Things are set out simplified and its not complex or difficult to work out. The support provided was excellent. I had [sensitive content hidden] for the onbaording process and he was always very helpful

Nachteile

That your onboarding team are located in India. Made trying to access onboarding help difficult

Vorteile

Integration with Shopify and Xero was easy. As we implemented all three programs at once it has been alot to take on board but Cin7 seems to be doing what it needs to.Went through a number of onboarding specilaists which was not ideal. We were not given reasons for the turnover. Our final specialist who saw us through the go live process was brilliant. Made himself available when we needed, followed up on actions and explained thinsg clearly.

Nachteile

Having so many onboarding specialists was not ideal for continuity of our onboarding.So much to cover off in a short period and it is not until you are actually live that you understand what you dont know. WOuld be good to have a customer success manager post go live and onboarding to meet weekly for a period of 6 weeks say to ensure things are bedded in well and you get an opportunity to explore greater use of the program as you learn more about how it works in a real life setting

Vorteile

Aman Solanki. Honestly, potentially the best help I've ever received for any product. Truly wouldn't be live on Cin7 without him, and I can't give him enough thanks. Knowledgeable without trying to lie about any limitations, insightful on different options I could explore without being over-complicated; everything you could ever want. Truly, truly incredible customer service.

Nachteile

Tax should be applied to individual items, rather than solely nominal codes / GL accounts - sure, I could create loads of accounts, but would be nice to be able to edit on each product. Also, would be nice if the selection for sales account showed whether it was purchases or sales, and the tax level.

Vorteile

Cin7 has a good user interface and is quite user friendly.

Nachteile

During the time I used it, Cin7 was still adding new integrations and functions and what I needed was still not available.

Vorteile

Cin7 is very user friendly. Easy to use interface with customizable options to highlight what is most important to our business. The implementation team was great to work with. I really enjoyed working with [sensitive content hidden].

Nachteile

I joined my current organization late so I was not a part of the initial onboarding and that created some delays.

Vorteile

We can keep track of our inventory level at different locations and have that reflect on our Shopify system.

Nachteile

It's expensive and there are some things we still can't figure out with the backend, in terms of having Shopify read into Cin7. Currently, only Cin7 can read into Shopify.

Vorteile

As a complete inventory and order management system it is pretty good and easy to use and understand for anyone who has worked with ERP's before. I requires minimum set up if your business doesn't require any integrations. Easy to upload and download information.

Nachteile

If something "breaks" it takes forever for Customer Service to reply to your queries or issues, even critical ones. There's no-one to call, you can only create a case online and hope for the best. I've had issues or requests for integrations which have taken months to get a reply. If you are lucky enough to get someone in the chat service to chat to you, all they say is that you need to create a case online and wait for an answer. This problem has gotten worse in the past 12 months. If it continues, we might look into changing software for our business.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Cin7 Omni

Vorteile

Cin7 works great for the inventory management of our e-commerce store. The boarding with [sensitive content hidden] was fantastic and he has been incredibly helpful every step of the way. Cin7 has a wide range of features and functions which can be a little daunting at times but also makes it such a useful tool.

Nachteile

It isn't the most user-friendly app with some interactions with stock being in strange places and limited flexibility around the information that you can store against your stock.

Vorteile

One aspect of CIN7 that I truly appreciate is its integrated barcode scanning system. It has made stock management and order fulfillment significantly more efficient and accurate. The time saved on manual data entry has been redirected to focus on customer service and growing my business.Furthermore, the customer support provided by CIN7 has been top-notch. Whenever I've had questions or needed assistance, their team has been readily available and responsive. Their dedication to ensuring a smooth experience for their users is truly commendable.

Nachteile

It can be tricky to learn some aspects like POS but it is still fine.

Vorteile

As a smaller start-up company, we were looking for fairly basic inventory management and order management functional that was not over complicated and not overly expensive. CIN7 delivers sold core functionality in both areas with very reasonable pricing and well developed interfaces with key business software packages.

Nachteile

Training could be a little more robust. Training videos get you some good basics, however lacking when trying to set up some more complicated work flows such as production jobs and kitting and bundling.

Vorteile

Integration was simple. The product is mostly intuitive and it possesses all (or most) of the features necessary to manage the inventory for our business needs. The reporting and insights are robust and useful. The ability to import and export products, stock-takes, and BOMs via CSV file or direct copy and paste is especially useful when handling large amounts of data.

Nachteile

Some low-level or simple processes that intuitively seem like they should be easy are complex or difficult to achieve.Some processes are opaque and difficult to understand why a particular module doesn't function in an expected manner.The lack of NetSuite integration is a negative for our particular business.

Vorteile

The software has all of the functionality we need for a growing retail business.

The best thing about Cin7 is my account representative [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]. I have 35 years of experience with installing, managing, and supporting large telecommunications networks; both in the US Army and in the US commercial sector. Without a doubt, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is the best account representative I have experienced in my career. She is bright, proactive, responsive, professional, and solves challenges rapidly. If I could, I would hire [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] join my team in Beaumont, TX. She is hands down the best.

Nachteile

I would like to see the following automated capabilities.
1. Pre-Order, Back Order, and Split order capabilities. With an automated back order capability, with automated email notifications to customers, we would make more sales.
2. Integrate with BigCommerce's gift wrap option to print "Gift Wrap" on invoices. This will allow our fulfillment team to know when the customer purchases gift wrap.

Vorteile

As a project based business we have found Cin7 simple to setup and run while providing us the tools to manage the business, it has direct integration with Xero our accounting software. We can track and import product, warehouse locally and remotely, control purchase orders, sales order and invoices.
We also use Cin7 to assist with local manufacturing , production jobs are key to this, we can also buy components overseas and ship to and overseas manufacturer and control all components and roll up landed costs

Nachteile

Some of Cin7 warehouse functions are not as sophisticated as other software, namely cycle counting and and total location bin transfers.( only be component)
Also a planning and scheduling module would be a welcome addition.
We have had problems with the imbedded exchange rates on purchase orders causing stock valuation errors

Vorteile

API integration with Ecommerce shopping cart such as Shopify & Esty is great and seamlessly. Customized report is a powerful tool and Cin7 came with many great functionalities for a light ERP system. My second onboarding specialist, [SENSITIVE CONTENT], is amazing, always responsive and willing to help. My 3PL integration engineer, [SENSITIVE CONTENT], is wonderful. He has been the rockstar who not only helped us with building our integrations, but also help resolve many issues that other people created and/or cannot help!

Nachteile

There were many hiccups started with our sale person who messed up our monthly bill and did not even get our Company Name correct! Other problems such as Cin7 does not work with multiple tracking # in one order, BOM components does not get shipped with BOM parents, etc. I had to continuously chase and escalate different work arounds with their team to get things moving.

The biggest challenge for us is until now, 3 months after going live, we kept find out more and more issues with the EDI files that was built initially. Some issues was addressed thanks to [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. Others were extremely hard to resolve due to the fact that " the issue was not raised during implementation". After numerous email exchanges, instead of recode/ remap data on our EDI file, they told me to edit data on each order manually and went MIA.

Due to many coding & mapping mistakes with the initial EDI setup that was not address until live. We had to re-process many EDI error files which caused our EDI processing bill from trading partner increased another $2,000.

As I am writing this review with many built-up frustration, we have not been paid by our vendors since Cin7 started due to the EDI invoice files error and their customer support team has not resolved this.

There's a lot to love about CIN7. For the most part this is a very slick, well thought out system that is easy to use with many powerful features that allow you to easily manage your inventory whilst having relevant and timlely stats at your fingertips. The dashboard is a fantasic snap shot of where your business is day to day. Using CIN7 on a daily basis I am impressed with how easy it is to use and how intuitive most of the functions are. It was very easy to integrate with our Woo Commerce site and with our Xero Accounting System. We also required a few tweaks in some functions/forms to suit our business and these were accomodated to make the system more relevant to what we do and how we operate.

Apart from the system itself their other big asset is the customer service. I was beyond impressed with the care and attention we received from our onboarding specialist. We had a few set up issues along the way but these were sorted out in a timely and courteous manner, nothing was too much trouble and we really felt like we were supported during the set up phase.

We have only been live with CIN7 for a couple of months but so far we are very happy with the way the system is performing and it has definitely improved our productivity.

Nachteile

The B2B portal is quite outdated but this is something we believe is going to be updated by CIN7 in the next few months which will make this feature much more usable and current.

There were a few things which weren't customisable enough for fashion but the CIN7 team came up with workable solutions for all of the major issues we had.

Vorteile

Very easy import functionality. You can just copy and paste entire excel sheets and hit import in a matter a minutes (no need to email your data and wait for the devs to import). Inventory information (quantities and locations) is readily available once you know where to look. Premium support is responsive but not necessary helpful (see cons)

Nachteile

Unworkably buggy POS system. Excrutiating lag leads to long customer wait times and causes reps to hit buttons multiple times resulting in multiple payment captures and wasted time for accounting to sort everything out. System often fails to connect to Dejavoo payment terminals but does not prompt the user. Customers have waited as long as 10 minutes to pay with their credit card. All of my reps are clearing their cache and restarting their computer as much as 3 times every hour to make the POS system work.
POS system and Pick/Pack module are completely separate and underdeveloped applications that need to sync with the inventory database. Pick and Pack allows for scanning individual items in an order but the same feature is not available for cycle counting (which they call stocktake), where it is just as necessary.
Premium support does not take ownership over bugginess and offers only workarounds at best. I was told that my POS issues were unique to me but another rep (on a separate call) admitted that they were experiencing POS issues systemwide. Support is overly focused on telling you what you want to hear to mitigate frustration over actually fixing issues.
Documentation is available but not nearly built out enough to be helpful. Software feels like it was developed in piecemeal chunks as there is a general lack of consistency in terminology and feel. Sales numbers are highly suspect and inconsistent.
Price was raised by 30% this year with no added improvements

Vorteile

Easy to use and obtain movement of a product with 1 click by checking the last 50 transactions. I wish there was a way to check more than 50 from the same feature, rather than running a report.

Nachteile

Product jobs often have problems being completed. Contacted support on numerous occasions but couldn't resolve. When a master code is build with SN and 10 serial numbers are entered, the production job often fails when completed and erases the serial numbers and the quantity being entered. Once clicked manually on the qty. box and have the SNs entered again, it always works. Components are in stock, but the production job module is having hard time completing from one attempt. Recent January 2023 update shows 50 last transactions in a different way, where now PO's show as "IN" and Sales Orders show as "OUT" while they havent been received, nor invoiced. Used to simply show "Open" and it was much clearer. Now everything is OUT or IN even if there's no movement.

Vorteile

Many features to allow for BOMs and dispatching of Kit products which has been much easier than other systems we have used. WMS is a brilliant feature. More features keep getting added which is great. Onboarding was brilliant.

Nachteile

The support after the initial set up period dropped of significantly and often need to find work arounds for how our business operates as I am told Cin7 don't support that feature. Occasionally I actually do find that feature in Cin7.

Unable to save fixed breakpoints for suppliers so I find I am always having to double check Purchases orders as the costs seem to randomly change.

Online help sources seem to be sometimes out-dated and this has caused errors to happen within our system, while getting the issues fixed I am told it is my user error even though I can find no source which says what I have done would cause any issues.

Vorteile

Would give service more than 5 stars if I could = these Kiwi's have their act together. I researched a solution for our retail store for months feeling my research was comprehensive and ended up with a dead horse about a year ago. Finding a native api full inventory management magento 2 solution was hard soon after that release and these guys already had one tested & working perfect! I had let down time and time again with my last system keeping up with releases so knowing their coding team was up to the task of keeping up on releases was very important to me. When I went out to do my homework round two I was even more discerning to pick a software and found these guys to be far ahead of the competition in functionality, cost and simplicity. Shipping / assemblies / recorders / Bar codes / integrations .... they have their act together! Also our experience with our on-boarding coach Joey was absolutely top notch. Aside from knowing the answer 99% of the time I very much appreciated not getting BS'd on the 1% and have a "let me get an answer for you" and he would quick!.... If you are not using or looking at these guys I would. Service was / is top notch.

Nachteile

Perhaps layout .... but that would only imply I could point to one that I liked better and I cannot. Just in general if "I had to" point out one thing that was on the bottom of my like list.

Vorteile

I really like the Smart Buyer module. It makes the PO creation process so easy. The reporting is really great as well

Nachteile

There is a learning curve, just like with any inventory and business management platform this comprehensive. Cin7 does have great support and documentation to help out to mitigate this.

Vorteile

Once you get used to how cin7 works & how to navigate it, it works quite well.

Nachteile

The reporting and filtering functions can be tricky to work.

Vorteile

Cin7 Omni's inventory management capabilities are very powerful, allowing real-time synchronization of inventory data to reduce stockouts and overselling. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates with multiple e-commerce platforms and logistics services, improving operational efficiency.

Nachteile

Cin7 Omni's user interface can sometimes be complex, requiring a learning curve for new users. Additionally, the system has limited customization options, making it difficult to meet certain specific needs.

Vorteile

The most useful features in Cin7 is the ease of integration with Xero and Woocommerce. It was easy to connect and Xero connected easily. Also the B2B store is Cin7 best feature and easiest application to use and manage and has given me so much time back as no longer have to manually invoice each client.

Nachteile

This product is on the pricey side and at times Cin7 can be a little glitchy, such as when completing an invoice it does not always transfer to the Xero Dashboard immediately, or the stock transfers on a sales invoice do not happen correctly and it comes up with an error, yet still completes the sales invoice and I then have to go in an manually alter each stock item. Also in the Woo-commerce platform the client names on orders do not always come through correctly, the system always messes these up.

Vorteile

Overall I like that it provides a robust inventory management system with room to grow.

Nachteile

The one thing I would love to see is for them the make it easier to add all available variant to a purchase order at one time.

Vorteile

Ease of use. the use of templates to upload information. Ease of downloading informationEasy to use and understand process.

Nachteile

restrictions do not exist on module like credit processing.

Vorteile

It's highly customizable and very easy to get familiar with, it's user friendly and very intuitive as well!

Nachteile

I wish it had a better integration with shipping carriers such as DHL or Fedex it is possible to use this carriers only if an app is installed and downlad but it would be great if they could be directly integrated with Cin7.

Vorteile

Nachteile

Nothing to write from the perspective of cons

Vorteile

Managing inventory, sales and other business practices on one platform is a game changer.

Nachteile

It is too early to comment on what I like least.

Vorteile

Full functionality to the accounting and inventory management with B2B

Nachteile

Requires some technical knowledge which is not always present in all staff

Vorteile

Lots of features and capabilities similar to ERP platforms without the cost or complexity of ERP.

Nachteile

Pricing is punitive to smaller businesses and you are forced to pay far too much when only using certain parts of the platform. The customer service is dreadful and the platform is riddled with bugs that take months, and sometimes years, to be fixed.

Vorteile

Easy to setup, easy to use, great training materials, API/EDI native and works well

Nachteile

After sales technical support is almost non existent. Tickets can take a month to be first addressed and there is no one to call

Vorteile

integration of the purchase of retail inventory

Nachteile

auto-replenishment and connect the online sale

Vorteile

I love both the integrations and the wide range of features provided by the platform - we were working on around 7 different systems previously with no collaborations between the platforms. This meant lots of manual input and frequent order mishaps (incorrect stock levels, lost orders etc).Massive shoutout to our onboarding specialist, [sensitive content hidden] - so prompt in fixing any issues we had during the onboarding process and provided flexibility for myself and my colleague to learn in our own styles. Very personable and friendly to boot - every meeting was a blast.

Nachteile

I'm hesitant to say just yet as I'm still learning the full deoth of capabilities. Currently there is still some manual pains with our invoicing process for shipping/freight charges as our selling model doesn't support tiered shipping options. Would be awesome if there could be a Starshipit (or equivelant) integration to the B2B portal so shipping prices could be generated based on delivery location and order weight on checkout.

Vorteile

I felt that overall the procuct functionality and options was pleasently surprising.I look forward to trying to utilise as much as we can moving forward.

Nachteile

Our initial onboarding experience was quite herrific and I found the onboarding process not quite flexibble enough or detailed enough to allow us to fully understand and utilise the product to its best ability.This process delayed our project start date by at least a month.We were how ever able to move on after allocation of another specialist.

Vorteile

Cin7 initially offered us a great package, it has a lot of features which are great for running our business

Nachteile

The person who onboarded us was not great and wasn't a great experience, but the worst thing of all is that they've recently REMOVED PHONE SUPPORT. Considering we rely on Cin7 to run our business this is hugely counterproductive for us and we have to rely on an absurd ticketing system which makes resolving issues very time-consuming, frustrating and drawn out.When another equivalent platform shows up in my inbox I wouldn't hesitate to investigate and jump ship if it meets our needs, Cin7 is just another money-grabbing corporation that couldn't care less about its customers.

Vorteile

Cin7 supports variants and it can integrate with 1 Shopify with 2 locations which is what we need.It can integrate with Stripe payment so B2B customers can pay online directly.

Nachteile

There is no way to bulk invite B2B customers, you have to manually type everyone's name and invite them separately.Once you downloaded products from Shopify you can't download any newly added variants from Shopify, have to create the same variant in Cin7 and delete the mapping and remap them.

We have been using Cin7 in an existing business. For a few years now, but for this review, it’s a for a new business we have just set up. We were in a time crunch, so on boarding and to be sped up. We had [sensitive content hidden] as our onboarding manager, and he was exceptional. He was very helpful, prepped for our meeetings, and adaptable with all our requests. He made the experience super easy, and smooth from our first contact to complication.

Nachteile

When I reached out to cin7 at the start, it took close to 7 weeks to get onto someone who could help us. I sent in multiple sales call requests and emails, but no one got back to me. I had to get in contact with someone through the support team rather than the sales team.

Vorteile

Inventory Reports.Product page set up and design - easy to understand and drill down.Cin 7 Help features and Academy

Nachteile

We have used 'Production Jobs' to create ski+binding packages/kits so the complete kit can be shown in stock, but now we cant see the individual components on the packing slips for our warehouse to pick.If we 'load BOM' on the Sales order then it takes more components out of stock again. We may need to approach you for a dev ticket for this. We need the kits to be available on the B2B, so we cant leave as individual components and just make when we do a Sales order.

Vorteile

Inventory management in Cin7 gives a very clear and precise overview of our business. Managing inventory by using Cin7 is super easy and clear. We always had issues with gaining a bird eye view of our inventory with other past inventory softwares, but Cin7 gives a complete snapshot and details for our inventory, as we are a product-based company, inventory asset is the most valuable asset to us. Inventory tracking with Cin7 is very detailed! We can trace the sales order back to its source, which stock we used for a particular sales order. If there's quality issues or any other issues arise with a sales order, we know which batch or purchase order the stock comes from and we could perform quality inspections to the entire batch or purchase to prevent the same issue arising again, which ensures customer satisfaction. Inventory tracking at each location is also extremely detailed, it may not be the most user friendly (even though it's already very user friendly), but it gives a very detailed information of tracking every single unit we have on every single location, including Amazon FBA. Cin7 has some reports or functionalities for replenishment and re-ordering, but these features are a bit simpler than I though it would be. Improvements could be made on to these functionalities for sales demand forecasting, reordering based on lead time and safety stock. Currently, we use Inventory Planner to predict, forecast, and reorder our inventory.

Nachteile

The software integrates with ShipStation for label printing, there're multiple extra steps for our warehouse team to print the shipping label from ShipStation, rather than directly in Cin7. ShipStation only expose carrier packages, instead of custom package types via API, which we couldn't select the custom package types in Cin7's WMS app for direct label printing. And the workflow for packing and shipping in WMS could be improved, a lot to be improved. Custom product label needed to write CSS code. We print product or purchase order label on different label size and that took me 6 hours to write, since my major in university is not computer science.

Vorteile

Our end goal was to use Shopify. Cin7 was the inventory management solution that made the most sense. We could also integrate with Xero and ShipStation. One transaction flows through the tool the same way, whether I start in POS, Shopify or Cin7 back end. Makes it seamless for our team to process. I trust the data. This is one source of truth.

Nachteile

We are an apparel wholesaler, so we have learned to look at style-color-size different. We would like to be able to scan both customer orders and inventory transfers or counts. That isn't fully enabled yet.

Vorteile

It does everything we need and everytime we think 'wish we could do this' we check the support Videos or speak to the superb 24 hour support and then we find that we can do what we want. Links seemlessly to other software packages like Xero and Shopify etc.
All my 25 staff from the 66 year old to the 18 year old find it so very easy to use and on the job training saves us £1000s in lost time.

Nachteile

I would like to be able to either produce bespoke reports or pay a consultant to produce these reports. ie a Price List. Also i think you should be able to restrict staff from having acess to certain information.

Vorteile

The communication to Xero for accounting.
Order management is okay and my experience is improving as we become more familiar with the system

Nachteile

The link to magento is awful and not doing what it should. This was a very important reason why Cin7 was chosen so I look forward to these issues being resolved.

Vorteile

First of all, the price is impossible to beat for the amount of modules and capabilities Cin7 provides. Where they really shine is the understanding of how technically complicated their software is. They understand that it's not as intuitive as the more expensive options, and they make up for that difficulty by providing a dedicated implementation specialist to make sure the people using the software understand how to properly use it.

Nachteile

As mentioned in the Pros, it's not the most user-friendly software. They definitely help with the training (both with the implementation specialist and the Cin7 Academy), but there's definitely room for improvement on the UX side.

Vorteile

- Supports B2B and B2C channels well, including integrated sales channels (Shopify, BigCommerce, multiple Amazon marketplaces, etc.), manual order entry, and EDI.
- Accurate inventory management across multiple warehouses and sales channels.
- FIFO inventory and manufacturing cost tracking from raw goods through processing/assembly and finished inventory.
- Supportive, knowledgeable staff to help with scoping, implementation, and rollout.

Nachteile

- Account manager/implementation reps are attentive and helpful, but when something has to get escalated to Support, they are at times slow to respond and address issues. However, they are thankfully quick if something is urgent and business-critical.
- There are a lot of details to learn how to use the software correctly, and unfortunately there is not a great way to learn these best practices. There are video training resources, but they rarely address the special situations that seem to emerge often in a system that is trying to manage so much complexity. For a business with channel complexity like ours, this means it takes a lot of trial and error to establish best practices in Cin7 and then to get the data flowing correctly between Cin7 and our accounting software (Xero).
- EDI integrations have taken longer than we expected because the support team is backed up.

Vorteile

The flexibility and ability to adapt to our business needs, and the relative ease of configuring to our requirements. Good plug-ins, although obviously a new development still very much in beta stage.

Nachteile

Quality and attitude of the team, lets down what would otherwise be a great system, emphasised by an over enthusiatic initial sales person who promised everything, and leave the implimenttation team to pick up the tab. Implimentation dragged on for many many months longer than planned, with poor communication, and having to resort to strongly worded emails to get any response at all. 9 months on, and still no end in sight to the implimenttation process, with one team member blaming another, or a different department being the common issue. Some basic business and customer service training of their staff would go a long way to improving the experience.
