## Reviews

### "Excellent & highly intuitive software. 10/10 value for money." — 5.0/5

> **Omar** | *13 September 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Knowledgeable support team&#10;Strong integrations with google drive \&amp; reporting
> 
> **Cons**: Wish there was a more direct hot line to the knowledgeable team members
> 
> Excellent, helped our company scale no doubt. It has some very strong integrations \&amp; reporting I really like and wouldnt have been able to accomplish what I wanted without them.

### "Finale Inventory ROCKS\!" — 5.0/5

> **Mike** | *23 April 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Reporting is where Finale Inventory shines. More integrations than I would ever need, with the ability to add a new one. Very easy to use, with clearly labeled \&amp; well-organized menu items. Getting started, I had questions. My questions were answered really quickly by the \[sensitive content hidden\] of the company. My phone calls are answered. Easy to implement, with guidance apparently for as long as needed.
> 
> **Cons**: A difficult question is what I dislike about Finale Inventory. There are features that I don't use, but there are no features that I do use that I have any qualms about.
> 
> I look at stock levels on a daily basis, and easily create Purchase Orders from the same software. Inventory levels are adjusted as soon as product is received, and as soon as it's picked for an order. I can see what's on hand, what's on order, and even how many days' worth of product I have. Stock levels take BOMs into account. That's huge. Product Lookups are simple to create and link. There's also the ability to create Custom Fields. Finale barcoding makes life in a warehouse much easier.

### "Does exactly what it's meant to do" — 4.0/5

> **Michelle** | *16 August 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It hooks up to lightspeed retail POS which was the only other alternative than Hyperspace which cost wise was too much.
> 
> **Cons**: Would like it to look more "app" like. Would like to be able to open several product cards to change fields in one screen.

### "Software That Is a Great Problem Solver\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jordan** | *21 November 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The suite of tools in Finale Inventory solve problems\! The warehousing functions and flexible and easy to use. The purchasing functions integrate perfectly. The receiving functions are excellent. The reporting is awesome.
> 
> **Cons**: There are so few issues to report ... it's true that they're always adding new features and sometimes there is a period of time when new feature are getting ironed-out. But overall the performance from the software is amazing.
> 
> At this point, I'm not sure I could live without it\!

-----

### "Great for Any Situation" — 5.0/5

> **Grant** | *9 October 2024* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Finale really helps you customize their program to your needs and walks you through every step of the way. They support a lot of integrations and have a really intuitive interface. They're a stable, great choice for managing inventory, especially if you're using Lightspeed X or BigCommerce.
> 
> **Cons**: A lot of the documentation is older and needs to be updated, and a lot of terms are a little confusing for someone without inventory platform experience.
> 
> My business is unique and needed a lot of extra care, but we eventually were able to go live with a great system that will be usable by production staff and greatly improve the process of inventory transfers.
