Sortly

Good inventory tool

Comments: It makes it easy to have the entire inventory well detailed with the precise information without forgetting materials

Pros:

There is physical inventory management and tracking that helps with the entire organization process, speeding up processes that could take a long time before and not have exact data. I can easily search for the data I need through the folders that are created with the exact inventory information

Cons:

I like everything, there is nothing that I dislike in the past or in the present. Its functions have been perfect

Excellent Product for Small Companies

Pros:

We use Sortly for our small construction business and we're able to get both our admin and build staff to use the system with ease. It's visually easy to understand which is imperative for staff members that need quick answers for where they can find their project material for construction. There are custom fields that allow us to build information our around our company needs instead of trying to fit into a premade product.

Cons:

My only negative feedback about Sortly is the limited pricing options. They seem to have too large of a jump in options. We have a larger inventory but we do not need any additional features that are available in the next step up for cost. We are limited to 2,000 entries and we need, approximately 500-1,000 more. The next step up provides 8,000 more entries (10,000 total) but it is 300% more expensive per year. We cannot justify the cost as a small company but we would gladly pay 50% more just to add another 500-1,000 entries.

Eagle 1 Products Sortly Review

Comments: Sortly has helped my company grow and manage our inventory much better than when we first started. We have had Sortly for a long time, but only recently started using it to its full extent. I use Sortly to create QR codes for each individual product and its variation and attach them to magnets on our shelves where products are stored. This makes it very easy for my team to scan products in and out of inventory. I also use Sortly when ordering products from vendors by searching for low or out-of-stock tags. This has made our inventory and product ordering process more streamline. I do wish that there were more of the features I outlined previously, such as integrations and bulk editing.

Pros:

I like how user-friendly the mobile app is for my employees when scanning in and out products. I also like how easy it is to create QR codes for multiple products, as well as the current bulk actions like adding tags, prices, etc. I also like the ability to add different users on one account so that I may have different devices set to scan products in my facility.

Cons:

I do not like that there is no automatic integration feature to upload my inventory to different Sales Channels like Shopify, eBay, Amazon, Walmart, and Etsy. Manually importing and exporting data becomes tedious and time-consuming. I also do not like that I cannot track which of my employees are scanning products. I would prefer if Sortly would track and report the times and devices from which products are scanned, so that if something is incorrect I can address it directly. I think the navigation between product folders and variations could be more streamline with less clicks when navigating on a desk top. I also would like for there to be more bulk editing actions, like bulk editing SKUs and Manufacturer Part Numbers instead of individually clicking and editing each variation. That is insanely time consuming when our catalog is extensive.

SORTLY IS AMAZING

Pros:

I really enjoy how easy the app is to use because I do not have to spend much time training other staff members to use it. The Inventory Management and Control aspects of sortly are really what makes the app so worth using though.

Cons:

I do not like the group items feature that has been included. My items used to stay grouped together, and now I have to click the button every time to get them to group back together.

Quick, easy, inventory management

Comments: It has helped us a lot. We use to have order chaos and a lot of time on the floor. Now we are able to perform ordering from a desk and quickly check stock.

Pros:

Ease of use and organization. There are some items I would like to see added for ease of use.

Cons:

Somethings are redundant. Some things are missing. Somethings, I have to make work for us. I would like to be able to export transaction data easier for trends and rates of decline, but I am a base plan user. I would like to be able to bulk update without creating a duplicate item. Makes it hard to edit one at a time and load or have to delete old duplicates when bulk importing updated info. Or, bulk apply alerts without them all needing the same min level.

Sortly Changed My Company

Comments: Overall, Sortly has completely changed and improved how I run my warehouse. Our inventory management has taken a 180 degree turn for the best. We are still working on adding everything into Sortly, which we are close, but it has made our company more successful. We used to say that the warehouse was just wasting company money, but we've finally reached the point where the warehouse is MAKING the company money, all thanks to Sortly.

Pros:

It has made our inventory control so much easier, and we are having far less issues such as over assigning our products to clients versus how much we actually have available.

Cons:

The main things I don't like about Sortly are the limits of Sub-Folders and the limits of characters you are allowed to have in the text boxes.

Inventory Management Partner

Comments: Very positive. User friendly and mobile friendly app.

Pros:

User-friendly interface, functionality.

Cons:

Integration capability and Scalability.

Excellent Application for Inventory Management

Comments: After testing out the trial version for a while and presenting this to our company owners they were thrilled to accept Sortly as our new inventory management software and we upgraded to Premium and have loved it ever since we utilized it. The cost per month for the level we have is very affordable as well.

Pros:

We love the ease of use, the barcoding, and the reporting features of Sortly. Our most favorite part of utilizing Sortly was being able to add photos of the parts for better identification and inventory management. Their customer service has been great for all of our questions and we are truly happy to have this system.

Cons:

Sortly is still working on feature improvements daily and we hope and look forward to a picking feature for pulling parts for jobs. Sortly truly cares about suggestions and opinions and will even keep you posted on the status of your request instead of leaving you guessing.

Great Addition!

Comments: We started with Sortly as a trial to see if it could easily and accurately track our inventory and also give us added features like visuals of the items and the option of generating a variety of reports. We did take our time with the transition to make sure we were comfortable with the new system. We worked on building our inventory in Sortly simultaneously while running our old system. We used the bulk import feature to add most of our inventory which was a plus. Overall the transition has been easy and is much better than what we were using. It is faster, accurate and user friendly. The search feature is excellent and the ability to easily generate a variety of reports is also extremely helpful. Overall I am very happy with Sortly!

Pros:

The ability to search for a product multiple ways and upload pictures of the product. I also like being able to print a variety of reports and always seeing the total value of our inventory at a glance.

Cons:

Not being able to list items in size order. There is also a lag time when updating quantities and adding photos.

Best customization options in the field

Comments: My experience has been very positive. I have been able to tailor the program to my exact needs which are not 100% aligned with the intent of some of the features, but because of the customization can be made to be used in exactly the way I need it

Pros:

I selected Sortly due to the customization options. I use the program slightly different than it's intention which means the ability to customize is one of, if not the most important feature for my company. All other competitors I looked at did not offer enough customization making their programs not suited to my needs

Cons:

I have no complaints about Sortly at this time

The best low cost inventory management app

Pros:

First of all, the price is really good for all the benefits you have on the app. It is really simple and easy to use, you can do a lot of things with it and you won't need to take a class to learn how to use it.

Cons:

There are some features that we would like that it is not implement yet. For example, would be really good a button to undo an action that you did for a product.

Helpful but with quirks

Pros:

I like the ability to scan and easily print QR codes.

Cons:

That I cannot "undo" an action. That it is difficult for me to see Sortly history and to remember what went where and who moved it. I do not like that when moving an item into a folder, that the search cannot be specific- For example if I have the folder of "Jane Doe" in 12 different folders by month, and I want to move an item to "Jane Doe" in "July", I cannot search "Jane Doe July", I have to search "Jane Doe" and scroll through multiple "Jane Doe" entries to find her in "July". I also think the bar code scanner in the app could be improved. When you are scanning within a folder, and at the top there is a note that tells you what folder you are "searching within" I wish there was an easy way to click that and change it to search in another folder, rather than going back and selecting the folder and then going back to the barcode search scanner. Also, when I am scanning and searching within a folder and I "add a quick action" and want to "Choose folder before scanning", when I go to search for the folder in the search bar the search bar page looks strange saying "nothing to see to see here" and the search bar looks different and for a while I didn't realize could still use it

Beyond the Basics

Pros:

I like how thorough it is without being a full ERP or WMS. The price is right, and the learning curve slopes gently while still having deeper functionality available for those who want it.

Cons:

It's a bit clunky and takes a while to load sometimes, especially when using a mobile device. I would like more features for adjusting all locations of a product, and to customize what happens when I move all quantity of a SKU out of a particular folder and into another.

Pros and cons

Comments: There are good things and bad things about Sortly. Over all it is easy to use and handy. Would like to know everything the system does so we can use it to it's full capacity.

Pros:

I liked that is was easily accessible on all plate forms from tablets, phones, and/or your computer.

Cons:

No Drop down boxes. I had to learn the system on my own. We were only shown how to do things by videos.

User-friendly Inventory management

Comments: I would highly recommend shortly. It makes inventory so much easier. I also love that. It has a feature where it shows the things that are low in stock all on one screen after I’ve completed inventory so I don’t have to go through and search every item.

Pros:

I really like that it’s user-friendly. Mobile, items are searchable and easy to notate exactly what is needed.

Cons:

Sometimes it glitches and says that my password is incorrect or it’s loading and I have to log completely out and log back in

A Necessary Program for Our Warehouse

Comments: Overall the experience with Sortly is great, could be a bit cheaper but what you get for features is well worth it.

Pros:

I liked the way i can type in any product that i think of and can find it on the app and know directly where it is in the warehouse. Saves a lot of time and money.

Cons:

The cost is probably my least favorite thing about Sortly.

Sortly review

Comments: Overall, we are pretty satisfied with Sortly, with the exception of the cons listed above.

Pros:

Keeps track of our product inventory so we know where our item is located and how much of the item is in stock & when we need to order more.

Cons:

That you need to manually set the alarm for when the product expires. Also, when performing a search, you need to fill in exactly how it was entered initially otherwise it may not show up.

Sortly Review

Pros:

I like the ease of use. With over 3000 individual items in inventory, Sortly makes keeping track of inventory much easier.

Cons:

I wish that there was a more detailed notes system when changing inventory. For instance, if the purchase date is different than the input date I wish you could change that to reflect when the item was edited, rather than when it was input into the computer. I also wish you could separate the customer the part was sold to as well as an option to attach a PO number. I wish that "-" would not stop the user from finding a selected part. In my experience, vendors have sold me the same part with some part numbers containing dashing and other without. Because of this I have made duplicate items unintentionally, thus creating inventory miscounts. Lastly I wish that there was a way to sort by item part number in the same way you can for part name and date updated.

Sortly is easy to set up and use in a Medical environment.

Comments: It has been great and has helped us be able to re-order supplies quickly and find the items we need through the different ordering websites we use. Having our techs be able to check inventory as well while running around if a huge time saver.

Pros:

How easy it was to scan barcodes and look up items and then modify the items to match our products. Being able to use Tablets and personal devices to install the app to be able to check inventory.

Cons:

We do with there was a better way to add and remove items from the inventory. We are still new to using the program but wish there was a quick way to scan a barcode to have it decrease inventory by one when someone takes an item.

Sortly Inventory

Comments: Have enjoyed the time savings this program has provided along with the parts tracker per vehicle/warehouse and the low level alerts.

Pros:

Once the program is setup and items are loaded the software is amazingly easy to use. Very helpful and the amount of time it saves is amazing.

Cons:

Takes a little to learn how to add and transfer. We have some Apple phones and Samsung phones it operates differently on the phones. It is easier to use on the computer.

Sortly coming in clutch

Comments: Overall I am pretty pleased but I do think we will be switching to ply which integrates directly with our CRM software, Housecall Pro

Pros:

Ease of use for warehouses, easily add pictures and barcodes.

Cons:

The biggest issue I have is not being able to update all items with the same sku or sortly id through all "warehouses" easily. Lets say I have a part our price changed and they changed the barcode on it, I believe I should be able to make a change on one item and it reflect to all of the same items with matching sortly ID's. Since it does not work like that I'm seeing many duplicate items, lets say i change one picture on item x in warehouse a and warehouse b has the same item. If i were to move item x from a to b I would now have a new item in warehouse b instead of just updating the quantity +1 Not setup well for our business, have had to find work arounds to make inventory work for our truck stock.

Sortly - yes please

Pros:

Reasonable price (especially during our first year), compact, bar code scanning, reporting. Sortly regularly updates and is open to adding features suggested by customers.

Cons:

Inability to report on some custom fields.

Ease of use

Comments: Very user friendly, whether it’s for simple inventory tracking or more complex inventory needs.

Pros:

Ability to conduct day to day tracking of stock and compile information about components

Cons:

When entering repetitive descriptions, system doesn’t automatically give suggestions

Bravo Designs Sortly Review

Comments: It has been very helpful for our company to keep track of inventory and everything else Sortly has to offer.

Pros:

I love the functionality of being able to make multiple folders and sub folders and create so many inventory items and being able to group them/separate them. As well as the bulk import / barcode functions which are daily functions that me and my colleagues use every day.

Cons:

The lack of features that facilitate the life of users like me. For example a great feature that i would love for Sortly to implement would be the option to click and drag items or folders into other folders or sub-folders. That would be one of the greatest additions i could think of.

Straightforward and simple to use

Comments: It's been an incredibly helpful way for me to take on a rather intimidating project! It has helped me get things organized and I'm excited to continue exploring the different field and tag customizations to take our inventory management to the next level.

Pros:

Sortly has allowed me to set up an inventory system that my company has been needing to help track different pieces in different locations. The folder option helps keep everything organized, and the ability to add photos is a great way for us to easily reference inventory as well as file any condition notes for the team.

Cons:

Sometimes the search bar feels a little bit finicky and difficult to navigate. As our inventory uses a numerical system, it sometimes does not "read" this as an identifier.
