ImportYeti Reviews & Product Details

What I like best about ImportYeti is the visibility into real import activity. Instead of relying on marketing claims or generic supplier directories, it shows actual shipment records, which makes supplier research far more trustworthy. Being able to see who is actively importing similar products, how often they ship, and in what volumes helps us quickly identify credible manufacturers, reduce sourcing risk, and focus our outreach on suppliers that are proven and active.

One challenge is that when searching by HS code or product type, identifying the right supplier can take extra time. The data often requires opening multiple company profiles or external websites to determine which suppliers are the best fit for a specific product, which adds friction to the research process.

Having access to company BOL data, along with the supply chain maps, has been a game changer. It’s helped me dive deeper into my research and really improve the quality of my work.

Also, most of the research can be done on a single page or on an extra page if needed, which is very convenient. I like how detailed it is, so I don’t have to open additional tabs of the same website to find more information. Most of the relevant details are right there in front of me.

The contact section at the top of a company's page doesn’t always include all the information. I often have to search for the company separately on Google to find their website.

I’m not sure if this is intentional or if having that information is considered irrelevant, but when I’m looking for new suppliers, I’d like to have their web address included as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a founder building a sustainable pet brand, finding the right manufacturer was one of my biggest challenges — until I found ImportYeti.

The platform made it easy to identify exactly which factories supply products to major brands in my category, giving me the confidence and insight to reach out to the right partners.

Within days, I was able to contact potential manufacturers, order samples, and move forward — something that would’ve taken weeks or months otherwise.

Beyond the product, the human side of ImportYeti stands out — the founder, Dave, took the time to personally offer guidance and mentorship. That’s the kind of support that turns a great tool into an invaluable resource.

ImportYeti has become an essential part of my product development toolkit — a must-have for any founder looking to source smarter and build better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there is not a direct email and website for the company, and it takes some extra digging, but still miles easier than having to find all the details on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find ImportYeti to be a great development toolkit that's easy to use and has access to massive data. It offers several methods of research, allowing me to check potential customers or suppliers with ease, thanks to its user-friendly interface. I love that I don't have to spend time learning how to use it. ImportYeti shows the HS codes, which helps me find more information, and provides valuable customer and supply chain information so I can understand market trends. The initial setup was also very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not all information are valid and accurate, some websites are wrong or missing. And some histories are not updated since maybe years ago, I am not sure it is the problem from ImportYeti, maybe it is not usable from custom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They offer a robust free option that makes it easy to get your feet wet and start learning the tool. I’ve found that I end up using it more and more each day as I get comfortable with it. I also appreciate their privacy policy—it’s detailed and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t much to dislike about ImportYeti. However, when a search returns no results, it’s hard to tell whether the problem is with my search criteria or whether there simply isn’t any data available to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used ImportYeti almost weekly basis since 2018 or maybe 2019.

There are many similar services out there but I keep coming back to ImportYeti because it is very friendly to all users, free or paid. Compared to competitors, the user interface is easier to navigate, and gives you much more information even on a free version. The premium version offers a treasure trove of information that would help me study supply chains in great depth.

In addition, being able to talk to Dave the founder for support is always super nice. He is always looking for feedback which means he is trying to improve an already excellent service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some company information could be incorrect - address, webpages, etc. It is not a huge deal, but certainly could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find ImportYeti extremely valuable for obtaining detailed information about the types of products a specific company is importing into the USA. This data is quite comprehensive as it offers insights into the companies and countries involved in imports. What I like most is the availability of data for the past couple of years, which is immensely helpful. The initial setup of ImportYeti was very easy, making the transition from our previous tool, Panjiva, smooth and cost-effective. Overall, my experience with ImportYeti is very positive, and I am highly likely to recommend it to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the lack of specific filters for distinguishing companies with similar names frustrating. This limitation makes it difficult to pinpoint the exact company I am interested in, which can affect the efficiency of my research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Working in the logistics space isn’t for the faint of heart, it’s fast-paced, complex, and constantly changing. That’s why tools like Importiyeti make such a huge difference in my day-to-day. The platform streamlines research, keeps crucial information readily available, and saves me hours I’d normally spend digging through data.

It’s rare to find something that actually makes logistics smoother, but Importiyeti does exactly that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While ImportYeti saves me time compared to digging through data across other sites and resources, there are still a few areas I have to search and figure out on my own. Some sections, like the product breakdown, can be a bit confusing due to the layout. If those areas were organized a little more clearly, I think it would save me even more time.

ImportYeti stands out for its friendliness and visibility of data. I am really grateful for providing premium services for free to a student like me. The concise provision of information and ease of search, which I couldn't find on other sites, were very useful. It was great to easily derive the desired answers, and the reliability of the information is also appealing. The initial setup of ImportYeti was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For example, the company Sanil Electric, which I researched, was found to deliver transformers to other companies across the United States via an EPC company called Nexgen. If we could link not only B/L data but also information on other means of transportation, it would be much more helpful in determining the final customer of the cargo. After all, foreigners often lack information about transactions within the United States. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using ImportYeti regularly and continue to be impressed by how well maintained and user-friendly the platform is. It offers a wealth of valuable data that helps me research suppliers quickly and efficiently. The interface is clean, the search function is powerful, and the insights into shipment history are incredibly useful. This is a must-have tool for anyone in the sourcing and supply chain space.

While ImportYeti provides a solid amount of useful data, there are a few areas that could be improved. Some supplier profiles feel limited in detail, and occasionally the site can be a bit slow to load certain reports. A bit more filtering or analytics functionality would really take it to the next level. Still, it's a great starting point for supplier research. Overall though there isn't much to dislike about ImportYeti. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
