Opiniones de inFlow Inventory

Sales & Purchase made simple

Comentarios: Software is one of my favorites for companies with no purchase order system.

Puntos a favor:

Great for small companies who need sales and purchasing. Sales has records of customer quoted sales and purchases can see what to order. Great way for a company to keep track of purchases and data can be exported to third part software. Purchasing software even has serial column for warranty verification of products. Was great for HVAC and appliance repair company. Great software for company with no purchase order system. Can make everything paperless and user's can view inventory, content and prices with no license. User license is portable.

Puntos en contra:

Software lacks year end inventory count reset. Reports could be better to show year to date expenses. I had a tough time getting year to date reports.

Practical

Comentarios: It has all the we currently need in terms of order management and inventory management, and such basic functions are enough so far. But the SQL engine tends to jam very often... it is annoying yet not a cause to discard the software yet.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use, easy to deploy and configure

Puntos en contra:

Unstable, tends to lag frequently. Consumes too much resources. Must be restarted once per day

Very User Friendly

Comentarios: Very Good

Puntos a favor:

It's very easy to deploy and setup , user friendly and easy to learn and train your team on it.Customer service is very responsive and helpful.

Puntos en contra:

It has some missing feature that may be critical for us and will ease our whole order process and fulfillment like product variant matrix.

Very intuitive, and such an easy entry into the world of bar-coding.

Comentarios: I went to the internet with a need, and that was to get our small business bar-coded, since the old words-only tags were taking so long to process at the point of sale, ie. hand written receipts and all, causing lineups that were too long at times and likely costing us business. I found your book offer "Bar-code Your Business" and ordered a copy. It was well written, very concise, and of course, led me to purchase Inflow. What I REALLY like about Inflow is how intuitive it is. I didn't need to take a course to figure it out, as it feels very Windows-like. I purchased a no-name bar code gun online, devised a model code scheme for our products, and was up and running in no time. Thanks. On the "not so shiny" comments side, I can't say I liked the upgrade from v2 to v3. The original v2 did everything I needed, and required less explanation to my helpers as to it's function. Suddenly with v3, we now had to hit Save, Fulfill and Mark Paid, all of which ended up with me having to fix this by cheating the date on my computer and closing orders after the fact, when the helpers didn't do it the first time. I was also broadsided one day when on the job, Inflow v3 just froze up on me and I didn't know what to do, exactly when I needed it the most. Well, it turns out that I had to be connected to the internet to use it, obviously so Inflow could monitor licensing/usage status. This was not good, although your customer service was quick to help me with this. If you could find another way to police the licensing, that would be nice. And finally, the one thing that drives me nuts (did again yesterday) is the fact that if I fill in the "customer name" field AFTER having filled in the sales order details, any discounts applied off original price get erased. This has on a number of occasions caused me to inadvertently overcharge customers, and is extremely embarrassing when it's they who notice it first and think I'm trying to "pull a fast one" on them. PLEASE fix this! (although I'm outside of my customer support time window, you can spare others the same issue). Once again, I must compliment your customer service (hen it still applied to me) for their very prompt responses to any query I ever had. Peter

Sales team is great

Comentarios: Very responsive and helpful sales team. Communicated well!

Puntos a favor:

The sales personsel helping me out was very great to work with. he responded quickly and answered all my questions.

Puntos en contra:

We do construction and have non standard workflow with that in our warehouse. Because of this the software did not quite seem to be the perfect match.

Great WMS for a 3PL

Comentarios: The ability to invoice, manage inventory and run all the related reports is a great time saver.

Puntos a favor:

It’s ease of use and ability for us to train new employees quickly.

Puntos en contra:

Would like to see the ability to do multiple units if measurement. Knowing how many pallets is great, however knowing pallet and piece counts simultaneously would be even better.

Inflow Inventory is my go to product

Comentarios: 10/10 would recommend. Keeps track of orders, customers , and inventory in one stop shop.

Puntos a favor:

I like the user friendliness of this software. Being a small business it makes life a lot easier.

Puntos en contra:

Sometimes I have trouble uploading price sheets.

Great Software,....but

Puntos a favor:

The overall learning cueve for the software is not bad at all. Much more user friendly and reliable than quickbooks.

Puntos en contra:

Seems most the focus is now on the web based version, have not seem many updates for the stand-alone version in the last couple years.

Inflow

Comentarios: From installing products and selling those goods using inflow was really a matter of a day to get started. Looking forward to utilizing the inventory features for our first monthend, and the daily sales reports are great

Puntos a favor:

Ease of purchase, ease of installation and relatively easy to set up and start using.

Puntos en contra:

So far we have not seen any downside to using this product

Does what we need it to..

Puntos a favor:

We switched from the desktop version of inflow. We use MacOS/IOS as a company and were growing concerned that we would have to switch platforms completely to allow our team "cloud" access to our inventory and invoicing. The new interface makes the transition very simply and gives us the full functionality we need on our operating systems.

Puntos en contra:

We would like to see the continued development of the web app

Made a world of difference for our warehouse team

Comentarios: Very positive overall experience. I wouldn't recommend it for a large corporate entity but we are a small company with thousands of items and it works great.

Puntos a favor:

Easy data import via CSV UOM conversions Multiple Location/Sub-Locations - track specific quantities by specific buildings/shelves Material pricing tiers Easily track orders Mobile App! Now we know what needs to be ordered for upcoming projects before the project starts depleting our inventory! Online Storefront!

Puntos en contra:

The windows app works fine but is a bit sluggish. You don't get that polished/refined feel when using it. Fragmentation between mobile apps and windows app. Only one item photo can be uploaded/viewed on windows app, while multiple pics can be uploaded/seen on mobile app. Online storefront a bit confusing because of not having an "Add to cart" button. Simple selecting a quantity puts that quantity in your cart. Only integrates with Dymo label printers.

Great Program For Startup to Well Established Companies

Comentarios: They were great to work with when we put the program to use. Beats many of the "higher" end companies out there with their product features and simple to use.

Puntos a favor:

InFlow has been one of the easiest inventory programs to work with. Not only is it easy to use, it is always updating with features from skus management, multiple locations inventory control, ordering and third party features and intergration.

Puntos en contra:

We were an early adopter of InFlow before they had all the bugs worked out and we paid for a full program years ago but since then that program is no longer available for free, we really liked the afforable aspect back when we purchased it as a total package. Not necessarily a con but more or less just times changing and technology changing and us being early on, not ready to pay for another upgrade so to speak.

Great software but needs work in a few key areas

Comentarios: Simple inventory management.

Puntos a favor:

The software is great for managing our inventory it has images, adds bar codes, manufacturers SKU and the showroom is a great start. InFlow has allowed us to become more compliant in managing Hazardous Goods.

Puntos en contra:

The showroom needs to have more customisation options, the labels only print on Dymo printers however we have a Toshiba Tec industrial label printer a common printer that we use bartender software with. Why cant Inflow integrate with Bartender to support all label printers? We are using InFlow to manage a chemical store, this means chemicals and consumables used in a laboratory environment. Inflow could do with the ability to upload a PDF to an item in the extras field so you can attach a MSDS to the products if they are hazardous materials.

Inflow Makes doing business Seamless

Comentarios: We run a very simple, in/out business. Inflow facilitates our business activities extremely well.

Puntos a favor:

The integration was seamless and the ability to customize client stores is amazing!

Puntos en contra:

There are some features that would be great to have but are only available in the larger packages. As a fledgling, small business we would not be able afford those features at this time. #Goals

Great program but could use some added feature to help make business run more efficient.

Comentarios: So far I have no complaints. Except for one. Wish it has easy axcess to a tablet or mobile device for example. So when you away from the computer and want to do like a quick inventory count or something. Even look up something up for a customer to see if we have it in stock/more detail info without running back to a desktop everytime. You can just axcess right from the handheld device to make any changes right there as your in the stock room doing some work. Instead of have to print out like a count sheet every time and then go back and make adjustments. Which takes more time and waste paper in the long run. Even if it's just app to the program so can least make adjustments on frieght or look up info for a customer from a a tablet/mobile device.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use and not hard to learn out to navigate your way around.

Puntos en contra:

Can only axcess yo it to the desktop or lab top computer you have it installed to.

A+ For Manufacturing

Comentarios: We have tied inFlow into our whole order workflow. Data entered into sales orders is pulled into custom reports and with on-site data access, we are also able to use it to make very customized labels with heavy automation from the data already in inFlow.

Puntos a favor:

Searching is great and user interface is easy to use. Very easy to find what I am looking for quickly.

Puntos en contra:

inFlow Premise feature updates seem to be on hold. Would love to use new features from inFlow Cloud but our data policy requires us to keep data under our control.

Great for my small business

Comentarios: I have a small business with several products. I find the inventory control easy and useful. The input of data is simple, so I have all my customer information. The reporting is excellent, so I can find out stock, costs, sales etc at the touch of a button.

Puntos a favor:

The system is very user friendly. I am not much good at technical stuff, but I find inflow easy to use.

Puntos en contra:

There is nothing that springs to mind that I would change.

It does what it needs to do

Comentarios: thumbs up

Puntos a favor:

Reporting can give tons of great data it keeps everything saved and organised well, I enjoy this inv entory management system

Puntos en contra:

Can be a bit buggy, im unable to print reports properly but that could be an issue on my end?

Touge Tuning - Review

Puntos a favor:

- The ability to track the progress of orders. - Being able to see, on the order itself, if the item for the order is already on order, needs to be ordered, etc.

Puntos en contra:

Doesn't work as seamlessly with Quickbooks as we would like.

Inventory Management Power House

Comentarios: Its a satisfactory experience overall.

Puntos a favor:

Well its an amalgamation of all the correct features.

Puntos en contra:

I would love to get the pictures in the invoices as well. There can be a further reduction in price to get more customers.

inflow review

Comentarios: This software is a great buy for the cost, I have used it for over 8 years. They have added many new features over the years to make even better. Support is Ok but getting better.

Puntos a favor:

inexpensive, you keep the data base, no monthly fees. For day to day use it is bug free, does not crash.

Puntos en contra:

do not like the new pay every year maintenance pay system, some bugs with current things effecting the history of the inventory.

My inFlow

Comentarios: Great for what I need it for. Sales, reports, inventory searches, past product look-ups.

Puntos a favor:

Ease of use. Customer/Tech support is great. People are friendly and helpful. One of the few businesses that I do not dread having to call.

Puntos en contra:

After 7 years I have not found anything that I do not like about inFlow.

Inflow has revolutionised our Inventory management processes.

Comentarios: Too many to name at this point.

Puntos a favor:

We love the showroom and have recently just reached out to customers giving them access. We also just love the GUI and how intuitive it is. It's very easy to drive and train people in use of different functions. We are big fans of your product and look forward to a long history with your product.

Puntos en contra:

Honestly, not much at this point in time. Inflow was chosen after looking at 4 competitors products and I am as are my team that we went with Inflow. If there are issues, I raise them with CS which has a proven quick turnaround. Keep up the good work.

inFlow Saves the day!

Comentarios: This product is the BEST!

Puntos a favor:

This product have a lot features that you might need and almost all of it have a shortcut keys that may help to easily memorize to navigate it Overall experience using this product is awesome!

Puntos en contra:

This product might more great if it can provide summary of your yearly expenses , But I love this product and I'm still waiting for updates.

Inflow Inventory is perfect for our small warehouse

Comentarios: We've been using the software for years and just recently upgraded to the cloud version. The ease with which our accounting office can verify receipt of goods is great. We operate as a central warehouse for our 7 stores and cut sales orders to fill the stores. With Inflow this is such an easy process. We receive product and fill the sales orders the same day, it's great. Recently, one of my colleagues left for another job and she switched their warehouse over to Inflow. I would recommend it for any warehouse.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use. Great visibility of product from receipt to sales.

Puntos en contra:

Can't really think of anything, other than I wish there was an integration with our point of sales at the store level.
