Extensiv Alternative for UK eBay & Shopify Sellers
Extensiv (formerly Skubana) prices on your order volume and revenue - the more you sell, the more you pay. Salync gives UK sellers automatic sync, purchase orders and barcodes at a flat GBP price that doesn't grow with your success.
No credit card required · Flat GBP pricing · No contract
Why sellers look elsewhere
Skubana was a respected order management platform. Since becoming Extensiv Order Management, public reviews describe rising volume-based bills, analytics accuracy problems, and more frequent glitches - while the platform's focus has shifted toward high-volume US brands and 3PL warehouses.
Pay-for-growth pricing
Pricing scales with order volume and revenue. Reviewers call it "the most expensive service we use" - and note the price keeps rising. Salync plans are flat.
Reporting accuracy
Multiple reviewers report inventory-value and analytics figures that never reconciled, with discrepancies left unresolved for months.
US-first platform
Built for US channels, carriers and FBA workflows. Salync is built around eBay UK, Amazon UK, B&Q, Tesco, OnBuy and Royal Mail.

Frequently asked questions
Why do sellers look for Extensiv alternatives?
Three themes dominate public reviews: cost that scales with order volume and revenue ("the most expensive service we use" is a direct quote from a reviewer), analytics and inventory-value reports that users describe as inaccurate, and glitches reported since the Skubana-to-Extensiv rebrand. Extensiv is aimed at high-volume US operations and 3PLs - smaller sellers often find they pay for far more platform than they use.
Is Salync cheaper than Extensiv?
For sellers up to 10,000 products, dramatically. Salync is free up to 50 products, then £49 or £149/month flat - your bill does not grow with your order count or revenue. Extensiv pricing is quote-based and reported to start around $999+/month, rising with volume.
What does Extensiv have that Salync doesn't?
Extensiv's wider suite includes 3PL warehouse management (from the 3PL Central side of the business) and deep FBA/dropship automation for US operations. If you run a third-party logistics warehouse, it is a different category of tool. For a UK retailer or brand managing its own stock across eBay, Shopify and Amazon, Salync covers the core at a fraction of the cost.
Can I migrate from Extensiv (Skubana) to Salync?
Yes. Export your product catalogue as a CSV, import into Salync with the mapping tool, reconnect your sales channels, and run both in parallel for a week before cancelling. Most sellers complete the switch in an afternoon.
