A team that has your back

"We joke that we have a tiger by the tail, because we're trying to project things, and it just keeps growing and growing as we optimize…Zentail is truly a partner that wants us to be successful together instead of just taking our money and saying, ‘See ya when your contract needs to be renewed!'"

CoCo Peterson
Ecommerce Manager, Candle Warmers

"Before Zentail, making changes to the catalog was a pain. They may not have gotten done. Now we just download our SKUs from Zentail and upload the changes on a spreadsheet, and it’s all done very fast."

Robert Bogenholm
President, Pet Wish Pros
"Zentail’s our hub and it’s always open on my computer. We definitely wouldn’t be where we are on Amazon without Zentail."

Neil Popkin

"Last year, we were overselling once or twice a week. We didn’t experience that this year at all. Zentail can adjust inventory so much quicker than any other system I’ve ever used."
