Sortly

Pros

The ability to create custom fields and specify the metadata for said field. Quick to add/move/remove/edit items with quick actions. The tagging system is an efficient way to group products. You can easily track quantities and move and adjust as needed on the fly with simply an app on your phone. You get the intricacy of a spreadsheet with the user interface of an app. If you can add/edit/remove items on a social media profile, then you are savvy enough to create a basic inventory system in this platform.

Cons

With any startup, you're going to have growing pains. They are still perfecting the system. The silver lining is in their response to customer feedback. I don't know if I would call this a con, but
there is definitely something of a learning curve. For instance, to create a detailed, intricate inventory system, properly, is going to take some trial and error. There are features and ways to manipulate the app that aren't necessarily apparent. For instance, understanding it's best to keep 'Folders' to a minimum and instead use the tagging system to identify and classify items. We have our own struggles with managing inventory, but once you get a baseline established, in a normal inventory environment, maintenance shouldn't be too labor intensive.

Pros

It's nice and simple for small business' to count stock in and out with ease.

Cons

I'd like it if we could take out a "kit" or "pack" out of stock at 1 time - take multiple items out removing 1 item. it also costs quite a lot for multiple users.

Pros

The easiest way to control my inventory daily

Cons

Alerts are not cleared automatically after you reach minimum amounts

Pros

Solid user interface that is clear and well organized.

Cons

Mobile app can feel slow and clunky. Hopeful for further workflow integrations like Slack and creating purchase orders.

Pros

The pros to this says I love how easy it is to use. But that’s the only thing I like about it.

Cons

I’m just a small balloon company with only a couple people working for me and your product is not have the ability to hold my full inventory even at a high price. It was a total waste of money, and all the hours I paid my employee to scan in the inventory to the point that it was full, which was not all of my inventory plus paying for the membership and it was a total loss of money. Totally overpriced, and totally not functionable.
