Forrester describes the importance of order management systems in the wake of the pandemic, which drove a dramatic shift in commerce behavior, “The demands of the time have forced retailers — and their OMS vendors — to innovate at an unprecedented pace: Think adding drop-shipped items to websites to quickly beef up sales, launching quick “on ramp” digital solutions, and streamlining operations to maximize strained employee bandwidth. In fact, 39% of retailers and wholesalers increased their tech spend immediately due to the pandemic.”
Forrester notes that Kibo Order Management clients have access to a “powerful omnichannel pricing and promotions engine” and “comprehensive ‘buy-online, pickup..’ tools with a user interface that excelled above all others in this evaluation.” Forrester also writes that Kibo customers “appreciate the strong tooling that supports business growth.”
