Any pricing and assortment monitoring software/services?

    Hello fellows! Do you use any software / services to automatically update item prices in your stores (or marketplaces)? As example it must take price data from my competitor website and supplier price list xlsx, generate my price (higher than supplier but lower than competitor) and then automatically publish to my website or send me CSV/Excel report with the result data. That all must be scheduled to run on regular basis.

    Also what about assortment monitor? I want to find out as fast as possible when my competitor is out of stock OR add new offers to his store.

    Yes, this is possible to do by coding a script but for it we will have to do the following

    1) Need data feed from supplier
    2) Some script using the language support by your server
    3) Cron Job facility on your server(mostly it is there)
    4) Last but not least, grab data from website of your competitors.

    You need to make sure the above steps to fulfil your desire.
