## The answer, as recorded

> Here's who I'd actually name, roughly in the order I'd bring them up:
> 
> **1. ShipHero** - The default recommendation for a DTC brand running its own warehouse. It was built for ecommerce rather than retrofitted from industrial WMS, and the pick/pack workflow (mobile barcode scanning, batch and multi-item picking) is the part most brands actually touch every day. Pricing is quote-only, which is the main annoyance. ([sumtracker.com](https://www.sumtracker.com/blog/best-warehouse-management-systems-for-shopify), [ringly.io](https://www.ringly.io/blog/shopify-wms-integration))
> 
> **2. ShipBob** - Name this if you don't actually want to run a warehouse. It's a 3PL with the software bundled, so you get distributed inventory across their fulfillment centers plus the dashboard. Roughly ~$5/order with a ~$275/month minimum and a ~$975 onboarding fee as reported. Cheaper and faster than standing up your own operation; the trade-off is you don't control the building. ([ringly.io](https://www.ringly.io/blog/shopify-wms-integration))
> 
> **3. Cin7** - Best fit when the problem is really inventory and channels, not warehouse labor: wholesale plus retail plus marketplaces plus a Shopify store. 700+ int
