I am happy we changed from Global shop solutions Pros I like that it is simpler than our last ERP. Last year we downgraded our CRM from salesforce and saved so much time and money. This appears to be the same. We will save a lot because of the overhead managing a mid market ERP system. I is also so fast compared to our old system. Working in the browser in the cloud is great! We have been very happy with the QBO integration Cons I wish there was a shipstation integration and an active campaign integration. I wish the zapier integration included customer record transfer. I wish the woocommerce integration was a little deeper. Primarily I wish the description synced. We may use a third party PIM database. Alternatives considered [Fishbowl](https://www.capterra.com/p/123794/Fishbowl/) Reason for choosing inFlow Inventory Cost and functionality were the primary drivers Switched from [Global Shop Solutions](https://www.capterra.com/p/79014/One-System-ERP-Solutions/) GSS was too big for us. We are a smaller company and needed something that was simpler with less overhead. Review Source KF Karla F. Corporate Office Liaison and Compliance Analyst Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "inFlow Inventory - Worth the Effort" April 11, 2025 4.0 Overall we have really come to rely on . The customer service we receive is some of the best we've ever encountered. The ongoing (free) training provided by their webinars cannot be beat, and I strongly encourage anyone struggling with the software to take the time to watch a few of those, they really are a game changer. Would we purchase this software again? Absolutely. I'm not sure we could run our business without it anymore. A word of advice though - set it up carefully. Yes, everything is changeable, but depending upon the complexity of your BOMs it can be a daunting experience. Pros We use in our vehicle manufacturing business (we build one of a kind handmade specialized vehicles). We've been able to set up BOMs, track inventory, handle parts sales, etc., all with real time updates. Cons There are a few things Inflow could do better. Being able to really customize some of the screens would help (the options are there, but at times it's very flaky, might work, might not, roll the dice and take a chance). It also does not automatically update costing on BOMs when you alter the cost of a raw part, so there is more touch time than really should be required. This might be a problem with QuickBooks more than Inflow, but the integration between the two is hopeless. Save your time, don't even bother trying. Switched from [Millennium Global Management](https://www.capterra.com/p/128688/Millennium-Global-Management/) inFlow seemed to fit our needs better, and the customer service with inFlow has been/still is absolutely amazing.

Director Customer Service Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "inflow survey " August 30, 2024 3.0 ok not great however i only had a trial Pros order processing See updates, issues, and shipping information all in one place. Cons production and delivery constant traceability Review Source YP Yahu P. COO Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An inventory system for those that do not want to spend unnecessary time doing inventory" September 11, 2024 5.0 Amazing in every single way. A clear software that allows you to work from everywhere and keep an eye on inventory. Pros Everything! this is a system that takes way all unnecessary embellishing things and is clear, and organized and to the point. Cons the only thing I would like to see is that it syncs to my crm. but to be honest, i have learned how to work around that.

Review Source SG Sara G. Parts Manager Farming Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "inFlow Review" September 16, 2024 5.0 I had an easy time setting it up. It took a long time because we have so many parts but in the end was so worth it! I've been using it for about 2.5 months and have not had any problems. Pros I really like that it is all in one. I dont need different programs to keep track of inventory, customers, and invoices. Cons I wish I could click on a part in a sales order and bring up info about the part. If I want to look at a parts info I have to look it up separately. Alternatives considered [NetSuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/135757/NetSuite/) Reason for choosing inFlow Inventory Better suited our needs. It was also a way better price. Switched from [Limble](https://www.capterra.com/p/162600/Limble-CMMS/) Limble couldn't do what we need it to. It also is for maintenance more then inventory. Review Source JB Jeff B. Logistics Coordinator Medical Devices Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "InFlow makes my life easier! " September 12, 2024 5.0 Super smooth, and very amazing for counting inventory! Pros Easy to use. Keeps everything organized. And you can customize it further if needed. We use sublocation as a place to name batches, and it's very useful. Cons It cannot use a product to create another product in the work orders. We normally have to use the same product to create more of this by creating a sort of circular reference, but this is not allowed. Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Excel too time consuming and have to put in formulas Review Source GB Gina B. warehouse manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "need an easy way to reserve product put on hold" September 12, 2024 4.0 I really like the site and customer service is super fantastic! Pros Keeping track of products, and who order or putting remarks were things went. Cons I would like to have a way to reserve products for a sale that we are waiting for customers payment to clear without totally taking it out of inventory, but it shows our website that product is not there at that time, so we do not take an order for product that we are holding for a customer. We do not have your full package with the store because we have a website. I would just like to have a simple way to put product on reserve / hold. Switched from [Wrk](https://www.capterra.com/p/204816/Wrk/) It was hard to learn and teach employees in a timely manner. Review Source VF Victoria F. Director of Operations Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "InFlow Review" September 12, 2024 5.0 overall, great! the support is good, the program is straightforward enough for my whole team to use with varying technological ability. Pros ease of use, intuitive setup, cloud-based (so no server to worry about). mobile capability. Cons the two versions both need to be used (web and app) to get full functionality - I can't do dropships, I can't filter my searches as well, and I can't filter my reporting as well on the web as I can in the app. I still can't get some of the reports that I need and have to run multiple + combine them manually. mobile search and filter doesn't allow to filter to just in stock. Please, PLEASE develop a financial aspect so we don't need a second software for accounting!!

Warehouse Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A++++++ Awesome " September 12, 2024 5.0 Highly recommended. Not only for POS but also works great as an inventory system. Pros Very easy to use! Love it and highly recommended!! Cons The only thing I would recommend is to offer a 365 day no sales report Switched from [Wasp Inventory](https://www.capterra.com/p/232310/InventoryCloud/) Better price and I liked Inflow options better Review Source pM phil M. director Farming Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "agricast inflow" September 12, 2024 5.0 its made us work more effectively to allow us to get product to our customers quicker Pros the ease of use its simple and quick to learn Cons nothing as of yet apart from the selecting of pictures when you log in Switched from [QuickBooks Desktop](https://www.capterra.com/p/212058/QuickBooks-Desktop-Pro/) wasnt working for us anymore as the company grew Review Source JC Jenna C. CFO Defense & Space Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Decent Inventory Cloud management at a fraction of the cost of the competitors " May 31, 2024 5.0 Much better than anything else we trialled, the interface is good and their help team responsive. Overall very pleased with it Pros Pictorial easy to use cloud interface, app which allows scanning inventory in and out. Easy to manufacture items and sub components of items Cons Still working a few bugs out of the system, but what software isn't. There is some rather crucial information missing on stock adjustments (like who did them), which makes following up a pain for me at the moment - I hope they are going to add this data field in the future. I would also like to be able to make explanations for stock movement mandatory Alternatives considered [Fishbowl](https://www.capterra.com/p/123794/Fishbowl/)[Odoo](https://www.capterra.com/p/135618/Odoo/)[Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/)[NetSuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/135757/NetSuite/)[Sage 100](https://www.capterra.com/p/227232/Sage-100cloud/) Reason for choosing inFlow Inventory We manufacture items and make products with sub components, inflow was by far the easiest and most user friendly package for this. I was also impressed by their ability to support a young business. We had Inflow fully up and running in one with with 3 locations and thousands of lines of stock. People can start using it with confidence with very little training thanks to its easy and logical interface. Switched from [MRPeasy](https://www.capterra.com/p/134177/MRPEasy/)[Sortly](https://www.capterra.com/p/169199/Sortly-Pro/) MRPeasy was too difficult for my users to understand, and was not user friendly or easy. Sortly was pretty and cheaper, however it doesn't have manufacturing or real inventory control processes Review Source SM Stan M. Managing Director Medical Devices Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Inflow Inventory Rocks!" June 4, 2024 5.0 Love Inflow. Great team of people always there to assist. They do so much for educating and training people. Pros It is a one-stop shop for controlling everything stock related in a business. We could literally not exist without Inflow Cons Would love to permanently delete old products and clients Switched from [Pastel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176456/Pastel/)[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) For control!

Branch Manager Individual & Family Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review from Eastside Exterminators" March 6, 2024 5.0 Overall it has been an awesome experience. I was sold from the beginning. \[sensitive content hidden\] to get our inventory imported and get our custom fields setup, it was clear that the support was awesome. We have been with inflow since 2018 and I have recommended inflow to some of our sister companies across the country. Pros Technical support is quick to respond and communicates clearly. User interface on the desktop version is very clear and easy to use. Showroom access helps efficiency. Cons Having to pay for increments of 5 user subscriptions at a time. Meaning that one person needing to be added will cost you adding 5, leaving 4 licenses unused. Showroom needs an "add to cart" button. Currently, you just increase the quantity, which works fine, it just confuses people new to the process until they get the hang of it. It also leads to people adding things to their cart that they did not mean to add. Switched from [Wasp Asset](https://www.capterra.com/p/80853/AssetCloud/) WASP was not able to record our job numbers to transaction and still be able reports by that field. Review Source Response from Archon Systems March 8, 2024 Thanks, Louis! It's great to hear the details of which parts of inFlow you're finding useful, and we've shared the Showroom feedback with our product team. And you're right that our plans come with a minimum number of users—like 2 or 5. We don't currently offer plans with fewer users than that, but there are options to add one extra user at a time. ^TW KS Kelly S.

I would highly recommend this product to others without hesitation Pros The software is user friendly to use & learn, training materials are easily accessible all the time. Cons The iCloud product doesn't have some features as per the desktop version.

I also wanted a user-friendly interface Review Source JH Jessica H. Owner/ Accounts Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Inflow Inventory is my go to product" September 23, 2022 5.0 10/10 would recommend. Keeps track of orders, customers , and inventory in one stop shop. Pros I like the user friendliness of this software. Being a small business it makes life a lot easier. Cons Sometimes I have trouble uploading price sheets. Switched from [QuickBooks Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/174984/QuickBooks-Enterprise/) Seen the more user friendly application of inflow and liked it better. Review Source CEO Cajetan Emeka O. Warehouse Manager Consumer Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "InFlow Inventory is highly intuitive" October 14, 2024 5.0 Pros is highly intuitive. I didn't have to scratch my head on how to navigate from point A to B on the app. Cons I can't really think of any as it met all my requirements. Review Source KD Kayla D. Office Administrator Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team Review" July 11, 2024 4.0 Pros A highly functional platform that assists us in tracking both incoming and outgoing stock. Cons The mobile app requires further development. A couple of notable issues include difficulties with barcode scanning and instances where the application crashes or fails to allow user sign-in.

Purchasing and Inventory Control Specialist Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Software" July 9, 2024 5.0 Overall, it's one of the better inventory systems I've used. Pros It's very easy to use! When I first started at the company I work at, no one really knew how to use it. A few months after I started and watching a lot of the helpful YouTube videos, I had inFlow up and running and created a Showroom for employees to use to request items they need at their site. Cons I wish we could change an item from stocked to non-stocked without having to create a whole new part. Review Source Response from Archon Systems July 18, 2024 Glad to hear you're finding our YouTube videos helpful, John! In case it helps: you could export product details, change the ProductName and ItemType, and re-import the file. This would help you create a new non-stocked version of that product, without having to copy all of the descriptions or other details. You could then deactivate the stocked product. If you have any questions about this, just reach out to us at support@inflowinventory.com. TB Tony B. Inventory Coordinator Oil & Energy Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Wonderful Experience" July 9, 2024 5.0 I started using Inflow around 9 years ago. I have had to deal with a few other systems and I can assure you they can not hold a candle to inflow. Inflow has been the system that I have used to build our entire parts organization. Pros The ease of viewing product usage to determine min & max levels. Cons I really do not have an answer for that. Review Source Response from Archon Systems July 18, 2024 Thanks for taking the time to review inFlow, Tony. We hope to celebrate a decade of working with you sooon! CB Casey B. Equipment manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Duit Construction " July 9, 2024 5.0 Very good product, some of the reports are lacking a little but good overall Pros Easy to use and understand and work through Cons I would like to see a few little features Review Source CG Christian G. Managing Partner Telecommunications Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A dream to work with" July 3, 2019 5.0 Pretty much all the Inventory and work orders, and practical flows of invoicing, sales orders, purchase orders etc. Pros Quite simply, it is easy and allows for most functions we need with work orders and serialized items. The Inflow Cloud is fast enough and easily customizable. Great stuff, quite simply. :) And the customer service is nothing short of stunning. Cons There are no cons, per se, more features that would be great to add on, as time passes and you develop the software further; the Android client (being able to do POs, SOs and invoicing would be fantastic). There are some other bugs with the Android client, in terms of cost pricing on the products that can be straightened out; right now we can't really use it for much. Furthermore, it would be great to be able to communicate in our own language with customers that are non-English speakers, by adding European specialty letters instead of ? :) And should you move towards creating shipments directly through API (with tracking updates) towards DHL, TNT, UPS etc, that would be cool (check out the Parcel tracker app for Android). And also of course taking the step out towards an own integrated sales platform to a little bit bigger extent than the inventory showroom (like a webshop of sorts), rather than the one-way integration to Shopify, that could be a really interesting proposition for us (however, we understand that it is an inventory system, and at that it is great stuff. Reason for choosing inFlow Inventory Price vs quality made the call; and the onboarding process solidified our entrenchment as a customer (now in two different companies) Review Source Response from Archon Systems January 4, 2023 Hi Christian, thanks for the great review! I just wanted to update you on some of the features you mentioned as a lot has changed since your review! You can now do POs, SOs and share/email invoices from the mobile app. The Shopify integration now pushes inventory from inFlow to Shopify as well as pulling Shopify orders into inFlow. Our API is now available to use and you can see our documentation here: https://cloudapi.inflowinventory.com/docs/index.html We do also integrate with EasyPost now, which you can connect your existing carrier to (e.g. DHL and UPS) so that you can generate and print a shipping label without leaving inFlow. It can also notify your customers automatically that their order has been shipped. Keep the feedback coming, we'd love to hear from you! Warm regards, Cassandra MW Mary W. Director of Janitorial Department Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ease of Using Inflow Inventory Program" May 30, 2024 5.0 In my opinion, Inflow cloud is very user friendly. I like that in the products tab you can search for any item with using word in the title. It doesn't have to be specific. I feel that the system is very straight forward and easy to learn all the basic functions for supply ordering and inventory control. Pros The customer service that work with Inflow are very attentive and knowledgeable about the system and time to review and come up with solutions to any question we may have to streamline our inventory process. Cons The cloud version and the app are different and sometimes confusing to switch between the two. I feel there are more features available in the cloud version. Reason for choosing inFlow Inventory Inflow seemed to meet most of our check boxes and was within our budgetary considerations. Review Source DH David H. Director of Help Desk Support Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "inFlow Inventory" June 3, 2024 5.0 Pros The best thing about is the tracking and reporting. Cons The reporting features are almost perfect, I have one report I need to create on my own, but otherwise the program is almost perfect. Review Source JD James D. Director Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very accurate and easy to use." August 11, 2018 5.0 This program is so very easy to use. However, the price doesn’t include some features that we really wish that it would. The fact that you can either have cloud-based or device-based is not a good thing, especially when it’s something so important. If we had an internet outage, we couldn’t use it. If we wanted to be able to use it without internet, we lose the app compatibility. We shouldn’t have to decide between the two; there should be an option that includes both, and many people would pay to have that. Pros I love that I can use images and add barcodes all in the same place. It is so easy to use and even easier to teach others how to use it. I also like that I can get reports on how many items we’ve sold and to whom. The apps have come in handy so often, because when we did an inventory check, we were able to go around using the mobile app rather than having to go back and forth between the computer and the shelves. This app made life a lot easier, and support was so helpful during the few times we had issues. Cons It’s a tad pricey. In order to get the mobile app, you have to pay. This includes permission for two people to use the program. However, this includes support, which is definitely worth it. We would prefer to also have the option to have the inventory stored on our devices rather than just in the cloud, but if we changed to the inFlow On-Premise, we would lose our mobile device compatibility. We would be willing to pay a little more over the already-pricey cost to have the option to have it cloud-based and on our devices. Review Source BF Brian F.
