Owners and users describing the problem in their own words: Reddit, low-star reviews, App Store, Ask HN.
Webgility doesn't handle Walmart and eBay payouts or fees and mishandles sales tax, so multichannel inventory and accounting can't be trusted.

The software do not breakdown the sales by product when it transfer the sales to quick books, it makes us have a blind spot on our quickbooks, when related to Amazon Sales.
A2X review, 3 stars 2019-11-26
Mapping cannot be backed up and reapplied - constant crashing and having to start from scratch Mapping not organised coherently - income mixed with fees - not enough breakdown of shipping
A2X review, 3 stars 2019-11-22
Expensive for what it does and the subscription is limited to 5 market places which does not allow you to do Europe and US.
