Advanced tool for advanced users

Best tool (despite cons) for small business inventory management

Pros

- Lot of features, options, various settings... all together bring opportunity to reflect almost any process you may think of. But if your vision turns to be different from one of system designers, then workarounds are demanded in many cases that seemed to be "common" and you expected them to work "out-of-box". You really need good understanding of the way system works and it is point where good onboarding consulter may help.- Responsive and quick interface (though quick reporting tools and documents lists could be more convenient).- Lot of detailed reports with settings that almost no other ERP can suggest. Cool tool for advanced users familiar with pivot tables.- Responsive and attentive support resolves most of problems

Cons

- Strange limitations in accounting settings and flow (especially when you use QBO and want to use both Dear's and QBO's analytics capabilities at the same time)- Integrations with Amazon and Shopify are cool for capturing "orders" when you are not using automated 3PLs flow. But integrations are not good for capturing invoices and shipments when you are using 3PLs like FBA. Accounting processes for e-commerce are designed in quite a specific way and you really need to understand how it works to get reliable accounting data. Thought this is wide spread problem in world of ERP systems for small businesses.

DON'T move your Software over to Cin7 Core-you will not see the end of price hikes.

Since moving to Cin7 (formerly Dear Inventory), we have faced non-stop price hikes. They keep attributing these increases to "system improvements," but we aren't seeing any benefits from these changes—none of them seem to impact our usage. Why should we be billed for improvements we don’t use? And if they're making enhancements to attract new clients and stay ahead of competitors, why are current customers footing the bill? In our business, we constantly make improvements to our products without charging more, as it drives more sales for us.

To give some context: we started with Dear in October 2021, paying $249 per month. After yet another increase, they now want $669 per month. That's a staggering jump. What’s even more questionable is when I asked them why our base subscription costs significantly more than what’s advertised on their site, I received no reply. Their website lacks transparency on pricing for additional services like B2B and POS, meaning they charge whatever they think they can get away with.

For anyone considering Cin7, I’d recommend exploring alternatives like Zoho. Something is clearly off with the way Cin7 is handling pricing and communication.

Hard to set up

I liked the person who helped us to set up, but he's connection was poor so sometimes, it was hard to follow the conversation. The team don't really know how the app (integrations) works together without a inventory system so it's hard to have specifications about it. I liked the little video I had before, but at one point I wasn't able to use it again. Overall, It was a long process that wasn't really easy to follow step by step. We are live but a lot of thing is still unknown of not clear. We had product that was suppose to be "out of stock" because of past orders, that was "back on stock" so this morning we have to deal with customer. An onboarding journal would have been awesome so we can have a step by step guide and a place to write our thoughts a long the way instead of forgetting it between the meeting. For the cost on the onboarding, it didn't worth it at all

Pros

Once you understand how it works, it makes everything easier.

Cons

The integration is really hard to follow. There's a platform available to follow it, but you don't actually see anything on it or you you do, you don't really understand what you can do or not. I feel like there was no link between each task. I didn't like that the onboarding team do a lot instead of letting you do it so you get more familiar with all the process.

I prefer the interface of Cin7 and I feel like there's less risk of loosing money because it's a monthly cost instead of one purchase.

Cin7 Review

Over all its ok. I think the best thing would have been to do was to upgrade OrderHive and leave that inplace. It was a great system that worked well.

Pros

There isnt really anything that I feel sticks out. I think its a little cumbersome and easy to get lost or forget to click on one of the tabs. Too much back and forth.

Cons

Not user frindly. Too much clicking to get where you want to be. Not able to modify sheets.
