The Challenge

We had to fix all our prices manually while our catalog kept growing, and this, of course, was quite a challenge for us. Besides, our competitors had started to increase the frequency in which they changed their prices and that made the situation even more complicated for us. Carrying out our daily price management in this way was a burden for our team in terms of time and we started wondering whether there was an automated way of performing this sort of task.

The Solution

We decided to start using a price intelligence software for many reasons. We needed to obtain an automated visualization of our data and achieve a more effective and efficient performance by comparing our position to our competitors’. In this respect, netRivals’ price intelligence system provides us with very valuable data and insights on our competitors’ price moves that allow us to make pricing decisions to help achieve our KPIs and targets.

The Result

Since the integration with the tool we have easily achieved our quarterly KPIs. We wanted an accurate and reliable pricing solution that could help us be more price competitive and gain more profit per product and netRivals has met all these requirements. And I also want to emphasize how satisfied we are with the qualified, friendly and quick-responding customer success team. They furnished the information on any of our requests 24-h/7-day. A good product and a good team!
