SparkLayer B2B & Wholesale

First the app works great with our B2B website. The wholesale customers and reps love it. There are extensive "helps docs" to assist me with customizing and learning how to use and set up the system. And even then if I have a question or concern the SparkLayer team is very helpful and attentive with my needs.

It's a great app and does enable B2B sales. There are some mad quirks that need ironing out, though;

> clicking the app in Shopify should open the dashboard immediately
> Invoicing should be integrated rather than having to use yet another third party app
> The store search function still isn't ready to use and is a huge hinderance for B2B stores with multiple products

This app was a huge game changer for us. We quickly configured our site to behave as both a DTC and B2B site with simple and straightforward mechanisms. Their onboarding and technical support teams are super responsive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this app.

I find the SparkLayer app quite simple to use, we import prices from Sage, as well as manually uploading price lists. You can layer price lists making it easy to manually price offers etc.

contact from Customer Service is speedy if you have any issues or questions.

I have been so impressed with the responsiveness and support from the Sparklayer team. We have been a Sparklayer customer for over a year now. Dom is our Customer Success Manager and periodically checks in with us to make sure we are happy with our app experience. Recently we wanted to make several enhancements to our B2B site. Dom promptly setup a Zoom meeting so he could understand the request in detail and included Ben, a Support Engineer, who helped us understand our options and offered to execute these changes on our behalf. Our B2B site has been transformed for the better. Thank you to the Sparklayer team!

If you are looking to sell B2B or wholesale, Sparklayer is a must have. They gave us the ability to have a D2C & B2B all in one. Sparklayer integrates perfectly with your theme and looks the same. Their customer support is 2nd to none. They are amazing and very responsive. Best decision we made, was going with Sparklayer for our B2B sales.

Unbelievable App. We are a B2B business and to use Shopify Plus is a huge and extremely expensive step up from the lower plans, so when I found Spark Layer was purpose built for B2B businesses but at a fraction of the price of Shopify Plus, it was a no brainer. And it hasn't disappointed. Our customer's regularly tell us how much they love ordering products from our store compared to other stores. Also, their support is very good. If you have any suggestions or queries they are very quick to respond and genuinely care about what you are saying. Unbelievable app and company. Thanks for everything!

Amazing support and a very advanced B2B tool. What's important to notice, is that it's not utilizing most of the base B2B features of Shopify itself, but rather is an "overwriter" of the tool. Still, considering all apps in this category this seems to be the best one.

Before looking at Sparklayer, I looked and tried many of the other wholesale / b2b apps on shopify. Sparklayer blew me away compared to them in terms of comprehensive features for b2b and ease of use. All the other apps were super ugly and hard to use. Sparklayer is robust and can handle so many different situations. Plus their support is pretty good (although I wish they had support that overlapped more with USA times zones) and their documentation is extensive.

Downsides: sometimes there's technical bugs that require a developer or support, their support is on UK time, and its fairly expensive.

I've just set this up on my store so that I could offer a more streamlined process for my B2B wholesale orders. The Sparklayer team have been absolutely brilliant from set up to answering any questions and helping me to set up my wholesale operation. Having just had my first order through the platform, my customer has indicated that they have found this a much easier than my previous manual process.
