Chose inFlow Inventory
InFlow stacks up quite better wrt to their competitors.
1. Better reach in industries and depth of features - esp custom reporting.
2. Free trial that is very extensive and helps orgs make quick decisions.

Chose inFlow Inventory
We used inFlow to manage our retail outlet. We must say it handled it pretty well. Our employees were very happy using it, and they learned it pretty quickly.

I like the program they are exceptional at setting up any and all IT issues that may occur (very rare) They cared for me properly and followed up quickly. Most days the program works with out a hitch some days slower than others but overall I think this company would be lost …

Chose QuickBooks Commerce
TradeGecko is less expensive, and on the surface appears to be a better choice. However, they're not on par with features against those competitors. I am running a new RFP right now.
Chose QuickBooks Commerce
I looked at several other products and either they were cost prohibitive or just too complex. If I wanted complexity I would go with a full suite approach (Navision, Intacct, Netsuite, Sage, etc.) for a major price point entrance into the accounting system world.

We have been using the standalone version of inFlow for many years. It is quite easy to use, with great support staff via their live chat on the inFlow website while the maintenance plan is active. Though sadly technical support over the phone isn't offered.

If things I listed in the "issues" section are resolved and addressed - I could recommend it more. Currently, it's still very undeveloped and I have to do a lot of manual work in order to make it work more or less.

Pros
  • Inventory management.
  • Barcoding
  • Ordering from suppliers again.
Read full review
  • Interface with WooCommerce.
  • Interface with Xero.
  • Maintain Perpetual Inventory (less than 0.001% difference in value of inventory in TG and Xero).
  • Works with ShipStation extremely well.
  • Works with major EDI vendors (with reservations).

Cons
  • Very pricey, you have to pay for the mobile version.
  • The integration to make labels is very complicated for my fellow colleagues. Sometimes it doesn't log in easily, and we've had to purchase quite a few licenses when we first started up with inFlow because it cannot be used on more than one PC at a time. Now that years have passed and we don't need so many concurrent users, we are sadly stuck with all these extra users that we paid extra for, for no reason.
  • We also are looking for reasons to switch to another company, as inFlow does not offer much support after the maintenance period has ended and we've had to constantly pay extra to renew a maintenance plan to receive support.

  • Needs email alert on payment for all assigned to QuickBooks Commerce
  • Improve auto payments set-up
  • Would be really nice to get automated reminders on the system

I looked at several other products and either they were cost prohibitive or just too complex. If I wanted complexity I would go with a full suite approach (Navision, Intacct, Netsuite, Sage, etc.) for a major price point entrance into the accounting system world. While TG has been at times very aggravating overall I'm more that satisfied given the clients operating parameters. No software solution is perfect - no matter what the software publisher says!

Return on Investment
  • +ve impact - Made quote to order process really smooth, easy, transparent and quick.
  • +ve impact - Custom reporting really helps to not use other reporting software, hence saving cost.

  • No real ROI - we're stilling pulling reports from multiple platforms.
  • Positive - segregation of wholesale and DTC orders in Shopify.
