April 14, 2022

### "Very robust. More features than we even needed as a small business."

October 1, 2022

5.0

We were able to solve the ability to know how much inventory we have on hand across sales and orders from 3 ecommerce marketplaces.

Pros

We loved how Finale was able to sync between all of our ecommerce platforms, including shipstation. We also loved the bill of materials kitting which allowed us to keep track of grouped products.

Cons

The software is very technical, built for companies with complex SKU's and warehousing needs. We feel as if we were using roughly 40% of the total functionality of the software with our small brand.

### "Party Mountain Paper"

December 12, 2019

4.0

Pros

While searching for an inventory software that could connect to all our platforms, was the only one with the integrations we needed. Not only does it connect and track all of our inventory on multiple platforms, we are able to run the reports needed to understand our business more than we have in the past.

Cons

The usability took a little getting used to, while the UX can be a little tough to understand, especially if you are looking at new features you haven't used before. After about 3 months on the platform, you get used to the areas you need and can run reports with ease.

Reason for choosing Finale Inventory

Finale was able to connect with all of our integrations, and run the reports needed to simplify my business tasks.

### "Always excellent customer service"

January 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

Always excellent customer service, and very easy to use . We got help with any issues and all the training we needed too.

Cons

It's geared to a broader audience and not to our specific industry needs. We need something more specific to coffee/office supplies.

February 9, 2021

4.0

Pros

is easy to implement and brings a lot of value for the price. We run multiple Shopify stores and are easily able to sync inventory between all of them.

Cons

There isn't a great demand planning module.

### "My Inventory Experience with Finale was and is amazing!!! They have a solution for EVERYTHING!"

August 3, 2017

5.0

Faster turn times, Less man hours

Pros

I like everything about it. It tracks my inventory, it allocates my inventory for my orders. It helps me tell in my shipstation integration what I am able to ship and not ship saving me hours and hours of man time. Its tells me what I have at all times, so I know what I need to fufill the rest of my orders. Oh and on top of all that the Service I get from the team is amazing! They are able to answer any questions I have very thuroughly and give me direction and solutions to any and all issues that I am facing.

### "Finale has been a perfect solution for our growing business. "

December 5, 2017

5.0

Inventory management.

Pros

Our business manufactures items that require assembly and kitting. Finale's ability to manage and track each component individually as well as when complete kits are sold is very advantageous for our business. As well, the ability to synchronize inventory and transactions through our multiple sales channels allows us to rely on Finale as our single inventory management system. Lastly, the ease of use and set up has been refreshing as we were able to get started within a few days and training employee's is a breeze.

Great product, great customer service, been a game changer for our business!

Pros

The software is very easy to learn and use, along with great features and functionality. Has some great workarounds and has been able to do everything we've needed and much more.

Cons

It's great so far, no complaints that I can think of to date.

### "This is a great in-house inventory management program for small businesses."

March 12, 2018

5.0

Managing in-house inventory in an easy-to-use interface that allows you to view sales, create purchase orders, and import new inventory.

Pros

The greatest thing about Finale is that you can cater it to how you would like to use it. You can use some features while ignoring ones that you don't need. Importing items and keeping track of stock and sales is very easy.

### "Finale software has surpassed all my expectations! It has made running my business easier. "

April 29, 2017

5.0

I know the inventory in my warehouse at any given moment.

Pros

It is very easy to use! When you don't understand how to do something, there are help videos for everything! It works extremely well with Quickbooks which is essential for running my business smoothly.

Cons

There is honestly nothing I don't like. The few instances that I have come across a report or screen that doesn't work exactly for my business, the team are able to make accommodations for me. The customer service is amazing!

### "Good but could be great"

January 4, 2017

4.0

Finale has worked really well for us but we are waiting on some features. Wifi syncing on the barcode devices would be great and a phone app would also really improve the experience. The ability to combine stocks together as 1 item/barcode would also be nice. However, the overall functionality is very good.

Pros

Support and ease of use

Cons

no real updates in 6 months

### " it does not save data properly"

June 7, 2017

3.0

need to properly save data then this will be the best inventory system on the market

Pros

easy to use and they constantly apply updates to the system. easy to receive inventory and system is adaptable

Cons

if you try to edit an existing order it does not save the change sometimes which causes me to constantly have to edit the same order multiple times and re-sync the scanner so I can pick the order. This also causes inventory to over sell which caused a big headache because now I have to contact the customer to cancel the order which they are not always happy about. I also would recommend auto-instant wifi sync as this will also minimize mistakes if you operate on more than one scanner

### "Finale Inventory Software"

September 30, 2014

5.0

Software has made inventory control in our warehouses very efficient. Since using this program our inventory has been easier to track, and ordering has become simpler. We use this inventory system to track all materials that are brought in and taken out of both of our warehouses, and notify our managers and billing personnel of materials that have been placed on job sites. Our representative has been extremely helpful in helping us learn the software and has assisted us with several trainings.

Pros

This inventory system is very customizable.The representatives are very helpful at customizing reports and screens to match our needs.

Cons

The only piece that is missing is that we could use the ability to have product kits which I believe they are working on.

### "Finale Inventory was the solution to an e-commerce challenge"

May 25, 2016

5.0

While launching an in-house fulfillment center for a mid-sized brand management and marketing company, I ran into a major obstacle. we were attempting to accurately debit and report sales post- shipping. A competitor of Finale, recommended by ShipStation, told me I was "using their system incorrectly" and could not offer a solution to support our simple, quick and efficient method of processing high volume orders. After speaking with several of ShipStation's recommended IMS providers, Finale was the only one who said "yes" and gave us what we needed. Set up & integration was quick and seamless and I could not be happier with the ease of use and reporting. The ongoing support I receive from the Finale team has made me a raving fan!

### "Does exactly what it's meant to do "

August 16, 2019

4.0

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.

We are a small nonprofit diaper bank that distributes diapers to over 1500 kids through 28 nonprofit agencies each month. Using Finale to track our incoming diaper donations and purchases, as well as our outgoing distributions, has greatly improved our inventory accuracy and efficiency. The Finale team is always available to answer questions and help us build custom reports to meet our more specialized needs.

Helped me organize my office

Pros

Good customer service, seems to work for all types of business, ease of use. My needs have been met. I feel I have just scratched the service with how I am using this software and already has been a big help.

Cons

I have not experienced any issues with this company thus far. It has met my needs and I don't see that changing.

### "Finale is an clean, stable and powerful tool for inventory management."

April 13, 2016

4.5

Pros

I think the product is excellent. It does not try to do everything, like many products out there, it focuses on Inventory Management and does that excellently! The UI is clean and intuitive. The system is fast. It is extensive with great APIs and Reports. The customer service and support they provide is fast, kind and personal. I could not be more happy.

Cons

Sometimes I feel the documentation is not as clear or complete in some areas as it could be. But I send an email and get a quick response with the information I am seeking.

### "Customer support was completely absent"

December 24, 2020

2.0

It seemed a good way of getting integration between other software that don't integrate themselves but the support is so bad it would be better just to go straight to the APIs of each of the software and write an integration yourself.

Pros

Throw into the bargain that integration with Prestashop does not work straight out of the box and that none of the support staff could be bothered and I'd find it very hard to continue with this trial.

Cons

No support, couldn't get it to talk to prestashop

Reason for choosing Finale Inventory

I havn't chosen it yet, and it doesn't look like I'm going to. Also the reviews look a little non-kosher, whenever I see 5 star and 1 star reviews only I tend to take the 1 star review as the genuine one.

### "Finale"

July 23, 2018

4.0

Finale has been fine. There are some features that would be great for us but as-is, it gets the job done.

Pros

Copy pasting excel sheet directly into Finale

Cons

I hate that I can't table select using Google Chrome's "Copy Tables" so I can grab Product ID for a search style and paste it into Excel and update easily. Biggest drawback.
