Cin7 Core

Comprehensive ERP features that are built with the workflow and accounting in mind. Excellent interface with Xero. Very customizable, but in an easy to understand fashion.

For those switching from other platforms, it could use better historical data import functionality. In particular outstanding orders. We had about 200 open orders when we made the switch, and had to enter them manually as Dear's import features could not handle our workflow.

Easy to learn the different modules and to teach others how.

When you have to undo sales orders, it completely undoes everything. The sales order should hold the inventory already taken from the system. Sometimes it is impossible to redo because the inventory is no longer available.I also wish that additional costs would add to the per unit cost of inventory.

Their customer support exists, which is something. They do respond to inquiries, albeit not always in the most helpful manner.

If you’re looking for inventory management software and are okay with navigating a complex pricing structure, CIN7 might be worth considering. There are definitely options out there, but this is one of them.

Their pricing is chaotic, filled with charges for unnecessary features, and the account closure process is ridiculously cumbersome, demanding a 30-day notice. It's evident they’ve designed it this way to continue extracting money from their users.

Customer support is practically non-existent. They show no willingness to assist. In all honesty, this company and its software are a waste of your resources. There are much better alternatives available. Stay away at all costs.

Dear was straight forward and reasonably easy to set up. It is good for our daily transaction, inventory management, and handles multiple warehouses and foreign currency well.

Features that could be improved are: visibility of stock on hand and sell price whilst in inventory, instead one has to either drill down on each stock item or go to reports. A general ledger section that has P & L, Balance Sheet, Trial Balance, etc would also be more user friendly- instead of going to reports.

Cin7 Core is feature rich and does inventory management very well. We also use it for stock control and order fulfilment.

For what's become a relatively large monthly investment, the support could be improved when we (rarely) need it. Even though we started small, each additional user, API and integration has quickly increased the total subscription price.
