"The perfect tool for new and seasoned sellers"

"Wholesale game changer"

3.5/5

What do you like best about SmartScout?

The tool is very useful and direct for newcomers. All the functions have clear guidance videos and examples. The data and the filter are displayed in a very clear and straightforward way. One of the best tool for amazon seller, especially for who are wholesalers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartScout?

The fee is certainly quite high compared to other research tools and the data is not comprehensive as it is based only on the data from the amazon website, not from API (Amazon has stopped selling data to third party since 2020). Must use with other software data to make informed decision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SmartScout solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quite an easy tool for new amazon sellers to find a not-so-competitive brand as well as to research a niche/ a brand. The data also helps to estimate total market and total sales/total competition so that we can optimize our inventory timely and accurately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible format that saved us from signing a $20K deal with another tool"

4.5/5

What do you like best about SmartScout?

I've been selling/servicing Amazon for almost 10 years and this is the best tool I've come across for compiling all this information in an easy UI. We were actively looking at a 'category estimator' tool for Amazon that wanted upfront payment for a year's commitment when we found SmartScout. It saved us a big commitment to a tool that didn't do that much more and was much more complex to work with. The ability to break out "Brands", "Sellers", "Products" across multiple Amazon selling regions is amazing. It's very easy to use and understand, but I find new ideas and ways to use it all the time. My favorite ways to use it are doing discovery for new client prospects, comparing brands within the categories (or subcategories), and pulling hard to get information off of Amazon (like Sells on a particular brand). It's laid out like a giant data table of information, so anyone who can filter and sort in Excel should be able to understand it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartScout?

I'd love to understand more of the learning and logic behind some of the sales estimates and 'scores', which is a common theme with all estimator tools. We benchmark the sales from Smartscout against the accounts we have access to for a general range of accuracy and never treat the numbers as absolute 'truth'. That being said, I've found it to be as accurate as the most expensive tools on the market for estimating sales, plus it gives more information than most tools in a clean format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SmartScout:

If you're looking for an Amazon category tool for biz dev, internal analysis, or general research this should be on your shortlist of tools to consider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SmartScout solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our main problem with similar tools is that they're not flexible enough, or they're confusing to use. SmartScout is a great balance of being easy to understand but also has a ton of useful information. The simple fact of being able to filter, sort, and export data into Excel is a huge time saver. We can now take 5 competitor brands and gain insight for a client within minutes. Some other tools can do this, but not for the low cost of SmartScout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Totally unique tool for all types of uses on amazon"

5/5

What do you like best about SmartScout?

We use Smartcout in many ways. The most profitable has been to search for prospects for our agency business. We then use it for product research for our clients and for our own Amazon brands. The traffic graph is excellent to help find products to target with advertising that are sending traffic to our competitor's listings. We then target these with our own advertising to hijack that traffic to help drive more sales for our product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartScout?

I would love to be able to scroll around the traffic graph rather than being limited to zooming in and out to look at a product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SmartScout solving and how is that benefiting you?

Product Sourcing, Prospect research, and related product niches that have potential to launch new products into. This has helped us to speed up all 3 of these tasks with creative ways to view and search the data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Breadth and depth of the information at your fingertips is unmatched!"

5/5

What do you like best about SmartScout?

I like SmartScout's ability to drill down into brands and specific products to see all relevant data, especially after using the extensive filters. It greatly helps in finding opportunities very quickly. It's great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartScout?

At first, I thought the product was a bit expensive. But then I found my first product, and the profit earned has more than paid for the annual license. So now, every product found is essentially due to free use of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SmartScout:

Put the time into learning all the features, and then the more you search, the more you know, you will consistently get better at finding opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SmartScout solving and how is that benefiting you?

Searching for products to resell profitably on Amazon is exhausting and time-consuming. SmartScout gives you the ability to fine-tune your search, saving you time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SmartScout"

3.5/5

What do you like best about SmartScout?

I like the fact that you are able to search the site and not only see where other sellers are but what they are selling as well. SmartScout has a lot of more information than the other sites I've seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartScout?

There is a learning curve to the site. It can be a lot of information all at once. I think the landing page could be a lot simpler. A simple dashboard would make a lot more sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SmartScout solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am trying to find what sells better in my particular area. By using SmartScout, I can see the competition and what works for them. From this, I can narrow down what I sell online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
