Keep Brands Gateway, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Brands Gateway you would be making suppliers who ship each order for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 62 of the 70 other print-on-demand and dropshipping services grade higher. It costs $2,508 a year.
What you could make
- Inventory: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Suppliers who ship each order for you.
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- It plugs into other products, Shopify, Wix and WooCommerce among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Brands Gateway’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
