Who JTL-Shop is for
- Fits if you are a retailer who wants stock, orders and the shop in one system

Keep JTL-Shop, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace JTL-Shop you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $1,595.36 a year.
What you could make
- Inventory: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- It plugs into other products, Dealavo and GREYHOUND among them, and has an API.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. JTL-Shop’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.
