Sortly & The Competition
- Lynne Becera | January 2021 | Fact Checked Review
We review 3 of the top inventory management software solutions in the market. Rankings are based on user reviews, product features, user experience, implementation, and price.
Top 3 options are:
- Sortly – advanced plan starts at $39 per month
- Netsuite – base prices for a license start from $999 p/month
- Skubana – depends on your requirements but starts at approximately $1000 p/month
Sortly was rated as number 1, let’s take a look at each solution in turn below:
#1 Inventory Management System
Sortly – $0/month for free plan and advanced plan starts at $39 per month
After reviewing their product & online customer reviews Sortly was our top pick. Sortly have a uniquely customizable system makes inventory tracking a breeze across any industry. With ERPs, every integration requires time (Netsuite has some horror stories), and every deployment comes with a high risk of failure. Sortly was the most agile in that respect.
Why Sortly is #1:
- Best for Small/Medium Businesses – their price and functionality made them the best system for smaller entities.
- Easy User Experience – Stay on top of all the little things with a more intuitive (and less maddening) way to track your inventory across your business
- Calculate Custom Products – It was easy Inventorying. They had a QR- or barcode-powered inventory that can be accessed by all the right people in a ton of different ways.
- Intuitively stay informed and up to date – The days of over-ordering expensive inventory and then watching it get wasted are over. Sortly offers intuitive, automated alerts, reminders and dashboards that’ll put you back in control of your business.
- Amazing reporting –
Better understand your business and its inventory with customizable, beautiful reports that are easy to generate.
- Highly Flexible- uniquely customizable system, and at a great price.
CONSIDERATIONS:
- Some reviews mentioned that the platform is so user friendly.
- If your business requires a highly bespoke enterprise solution then the cost can get high
Customer Reviews
2. Netsuite
Netsuite – base prices for a license start from $999 p/month
NetSuite is, simply put, HUGE. It is the #1 enterprise software in the world and with size comes complexity. There are plenty of businesses of all sizes that love Netsuite, and plenty that don’t. Netsuite are a cloud ERP solution, providing a suite of applications, from accounting and financial planning, to warehouse management, ecommerce, inventory management.
One thing about NetSuite is engineered to scale with businesses as you grow and to streamline mission-critical processes.
WHAT WE LIKED:
- Omnichannel experience
- Scalable integration
- Highly customizable (at a cost)
- Great reporting tools
CONSIDERATIONS:
- Cost – it can get really expensive, we read a lot of online reviews complaining about the cost vs other solutions.
- Integration – again, a lot of complaints online from customers having long and arduous implementation cycles.
3. Skubana
Skubana starts from $1000 per month, you’ll need to confirm costs after speaking with their sales consultant
WHAT WE LIKED:
- Easy to manage multi-channel orders
- Ability to integrate with sales channels and warehouses
- Inventory tracking was solid
CONSIDERATIONS:
- Cost – although cheaper than Netsuite for most small businesses, it’s not the cheapest solution. If cost is a priority over customizability then you should consider Cin7
Our Conclusion
They all have pros and cons, but after careful review Sortly was our top choice due to its comprehensive features, great customer support, customer reviews & reasonable price. Sortly’s inventory management System is modern, simple yet very powerful and precise cloud inventory management software.
Netsuite is amazing, but it’s a lot to implement, operate, and its price can be prohibitively expensive. Finally, Skubana is on our last spot due to their higher plan pricing although they have grown into a leader in marketing automation.
Our review is not meant to be exhaustive, these are complex SaaS products. But after careful review we do think Sortly have an edge, especially for SMB’s looking for a cost effective solution. We recommend booking a consultation to learn more about which solution would suit you best.
