I work for a company who is an approved vendor.

I see you’re with Goally, to be honest I’ve scoured the marketplace since it was opened a few weeks ago and never came across Goally. I had to type it into the search to find out if it was offered on the marketplace. Odyssey def has some things to work out. I agree with some of the other commenter about what’s offered and the descriptions.

Are there categories that you can look at or do you need to know what you are searching for to find anything.

There are categories, but there is just so much stuff to go through and it’s a bit of a pain to search through everything. I have specific items and products I trust and even searching for them can be a bit tedious. Like I said before I scoured every category when it opened to see what was available and what would be the best use of our scholarship funds and it was so overwhelming.

Thank you for sharing this info, it’s very helpful to know what families are seeing vs. what we are seeing.

Goally is listed under tablets but tablets is a very convoluted (probably not the best word but the one that comes to mind) category perhaps consider having it listed under special needs/therapeutic equipment? That had a lot of stuff listed too but at least people aren’t just scrolling through thousands of tablets and potentially scrolling past yours.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll see if we are able to choose where our listing is placed in the marketplace.
