Buyer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "StockIQ for optimal inventory control and forecasting" April 6, 2023 5.0 SIQ has allowed us to classify our inventory of over 10 000 products effectively and we have saved so much time on planning purchase orders and promotions. 10 out of 10! The integration from our previous stock management system was world class. Pros StockIQ's dynamic forecasting system and ability to plan promotions better has really been a huge win for us, coupled with their multi functional reporting, filtering and integration with our current ERP has made it a no brainer for us as a rapidly growing omni channel company. Cons The only drawback that I can mention is the fact that we are in different time zones so the turn around on support required is not always immediate but as soon as they are up and running for the day their support and customer care has been phenomenal. Reason for choosing StockIQ StockIQ's ability to manage promotions was our main reason for switching over. We had outgrown our previous inventory management system as we were rapidly expanding and SIQ was able to accomodate multiple locations with ease. Switched from [Netstock](https://www.capterra.com/p/152724/NETSTOCK/) StockIQ's ability to manage promotions was our main reason for switching over. We had outgrown our previous inventory management system as we were rapidly expanding and SIQ was able to accomodate multiple locations with ease. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies April 10, 2023 Thank you for the awesome review, Natalie! It is great to hear how the ability to plan promotions has been a huge win for your company. VR Verified Reviewer Category Manager Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A complete solution for demand management" December 8, 2020 5.0 Couldn't be happier. It has increased our inventory visibility and we have more levers that we know how to use to get our levels right. Pros The onboarding process was focused on us. With other solutions we talked to, we were going to have to fit their mold. With StockIQ, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and the team took time to understand our ERP (custom) and determine the best fit. It's always being updated and user feature requests are taken seriously. At least half a dozen new features were added because we requested them to make things easier. Cons We as a company like to use a lot of "uploads" to adjust things. At launch, not a ton of those were supported but more and more have been added. I would also argue that we're a bit uncommon in that request. Alternatives considered [Netstock](https://www.capterra.com/p/152724/NETSTOCK/) Reason for choosing StockIQ At the end of the day, StockIQ had the most features for the best value. More importantly, we were absolutely convinced that their support team would be there for us every step of the way - and that's been been proven true and returned additional value in spades.

Supply Planner Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Supply Chain Management " October 4, 2021 5.0 Pros Forecast manager is a great tool to use when planning buys. Cons the weekly independent forecast vs. real sales orders some times double dip. No days of supply for Proj actual available Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies October 7, 2021 Glad the Forecast Manager is a great tool for you. Appreciate your feedback! Andrew C. Category Manager Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ERP Agnostic Tech with top-tier support" December 6, 2019 5.0 Extremely positive product experience. We consistently hit fill rate targets, and when we struggled StockIQ worked along with us to tweak our settings to get where we needed to be. Pros We are on a custom ERP, so most out of the box solutions wouldn’t work. We also have a somewhat complicated ordering system with lots of specific parameters. StockIQ was able to handle all of our needs, even when a few required so slight tweaks. The implementation team was committed to our success and continued to help us optimize our settings, and regularly listens to feedback and adds functionality. Cons Not much not to like. It’s leaps and bounds above our previous system. Any complaints I have are caused by our internal data structure and not StockIQ. Alternatives considered [Netstock](https://www.capterra.com/p/152724/NETSTOCK/) Reason for choosing StockIQ Better pricing, most involved support, complete feature set.

Cons Not so many cons in my opinion, because as long as I use this software I have never had an error or bug find. Alternatives considered [SAP S/4HANA Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/152293/SAP-S-4HANA/) Reason for choosing StockIQ This software is too expensive and a bit difficult to operate. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies August 9, 2021 We are glad to hear that StockIQ helps you perform your job in Production Planning and Inventory Control. Robert G. Director of Logistics and Process Improvement Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Demand Forecasting that works and a great team to support it" July 8, 2019 5.0 Team has been exceptional to work with and had been extremely responsive. Pros Primarily chose the product due to the team behind the software and their responsiveness/willingness to address our needs. Software is highly scale able and user base has companies in similar industries. The team is a pleasure to work with and have the experience to develop highly advanced solutions to complex problems. Cons The batch nature of this type of software implementation (not unique to StockIQ) made internal process changes necessary. The large SKU count that we presented has introduced some performance issues that were unforeseen and had to be addressed early. Alternatives considered [Blue Ridge Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/149310/Blue-Ridge-Global/) Reason for choosing StockIQ Overall value and team responsiveness to developing solutions to meet our unique objectives Review Source Emily K. VP of Sourcing and Compliance Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Great Supply Chain Planning tool for a fast-scaling CPG business" October 4, 2021 5.0 StockIQ has unparalleled customer service and great features in an easy-to-use, intuitive interface. Pros Stock IQ is a great, well-contemplated system for day-to-day demand and supply planning. It offers everything we require out of the box, including forecasting, event modeling, and replenishment planning, with an intuitive and easy interface that makes training our fast-growing team a breeze. We have grown our utilization of the system over time as we have expanded our business and team capabilities. The system was effective when we were only using a handful of models and has grown to be integral as we have expanded our utilization. Additionally we really appreciate the whole team at StockIQ their support is unparalleled and whenever we have a system question or are training a new team member they are always there to help and coach! Cons We recently migrated our ERP to NetSuite and have been able to unlock a lot more out of StockIQ than was previously available. While the system was effective and the whole StockIQ team did an excellent job working with us to get the system operational on our local version of Quickbooks, we have noticed better operation and utilization since migrating to NetSuite. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies October 5, 2021 Thank you Emily, glad to hear after migrating to NetSuite you are able to unlock a lot more out of StockIQ. StockIQ is passionate about EXCEEDING our client's Expectations. Thank you again for your review. Nicholas P. Executive Vice President Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Brought order to the ordering process" September 7, 2021 5.0 StockIQ the software is fantastic. It has taken a 2-3 week order process and consolidated to 1 day. For the standard day to day items, it's nearly point and click with data validation front and center explain all it's decisions. StockIQ the company is also fantastic. They are approachable and hands on. The additional content they provide to their customers is extremely valuable and pertinent to what current climate we operate in. Their support staff is great and speaks your language, trying to resolve issues often within a day. Pros The software takes all the data that I managed and gave it meaning. It provided clear insight that could be shared to make many different business decisions. Forecasting and Ordering were both key components that make life easier for any purchaser. Cons Not a complaint towards the software, but if you do a poor implementation, you will have problems. It will show information that is incomplete/incorrect based on the human decision put it. It is critical to ask the questions up front and make sure you know what you are being asked, otherwise, you will have to spend time later fixing your mistakes after you learned what the purpose of certain fields are. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies September 27, 2021 Thank you for your review Nicholas! Glad to hear StockIQ's Forecasting and Ordering modules are key components to making your life easier as a purchaser. Kurt C. Product & Fulfillment Coordinator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "PlatinumCode Review" October 5, 2018 5.0 Very good! Their team is overly responsive and super down to earth - very friendly, intelligent, and don't let anything stand in the way of finding a solution for whatever comes up. We were used to working with IT companies in the past who were charging us for every request and this company has not ever done that - have even enabled features we've requested as part of their routine system upgrade at no charge to us, very impressive! Pros Without question it's the ability to take the tremendous amount of manual review of stock activity and have a system evaluating your levels of demand virtually real-time and giving you suggestions that you can depend on without having to second-guess. This saves us a tremendous amount of time and also ofcourse reduces the amount of inventory on hand. Cons We have a hub/spoke relationship with our own central location here re-supplying the spokes which are 3PL warehouses around the country. We've had a few issues with understanding the demand coming from these "spokes" - just definitely a learning curve to understand how the system is interpreting the data. Review Source Karl O. Production Manger Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "This is an awesome inventory management platform!" August 20, 2018 5.0 Seriously streamlined our inventory management. Took us from a wide array of Excel spreadsheets and manual lookups to an electronic way to simply print out necessary PO's and Assemblies. I definitely would recommend this to anyone warehousing or manufacturing goods. Pros This software will automatically recommend reorder/manufacturing quantities based off of actual usage, lead time and your level of service you put on the item. I can prevent stock-outs on all your sku's at the same time prevent you from overstocking and tying up cash flow. This system will literally replace an employee by digitizing your inventory analysis. Awesome software. Cons This software is so great it is hard to come up with any Cons. The only thing I would say is that it is somewhat difficult to learn all the functions of it, however with StockIQ's excellent customer service and training they will help you thru all this.... Review Source LC Lisa C. Purchasing Agent Music Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "All in one Decision Maker" July 2, 2019 5.0 Pros I love that this software gives you lots of information at your fingertips. I'm a new user but the data is easy to validate against my ERP by using the lists they provide in your dashboard. It's so easy to see the health of your inventory at a glance. The columns available in the reporting and ordering sections provide enough information so that you don't have to go back to your ERP to look up details, which I've had to do with other forecasting programs. Support is always there and they really understand your needs. Cons One feature I've experienced in other softwares that wasn't available here is the ability to pull data from an external spreadsheet into the forecasting program. It seems we often run out of fields in our ERP so we had to do a little re-working in order to provide Stock IQ with this data. Reason for choosing StockIQ ease of use, availability of data and reporting. Review Source SE Salam E. Senior Planner Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "StockIQ Review" December 10, 2020 5.0 Overall the most enjoyable MRP software to use. Wonderful support team always willing to help resolve issues and answer questions with fast response time. Pros The visual interface is very user friendly. Reports are customizable for each user and there are many features to assist in forecasting/purchasing. Cons No major complaints. Can be difficult to implement some of our niche business practices if not in line with industry standards. Review Source DD Doug D. VP Purchasing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Tailored Inventory Management & Forecasting Software" October 2, 2018 5.0 Reduced overall inventory in year 1 by 18% - sales in the same period were up 13% ($50,000,000 growth in sales, $12,000,000 reduction in inventory). That speaks volumes. Pros Responsiveness to user feedback and suggested improvements Full suite of features from demand planning and forecasting to purchasing to reporting/analysis Managing by exception - alert system works very well Viewing sales and forecasts at various levels of product heirarchy from category to family to SKU Cons That we didn't find it and get it implemented sooner! Review Source GP Gabriela P. Senior Inventory Analyst Consumer Electronics Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Positive experience " December 14, 2020 5.0 Pros Easy to use, great interface with many things you need all in one place. Very reliable with little issues. Generates useful reports. Cons There is always place for improvement and their team is always helpful if we need any adjustments to be done. Review Source CS Courtney S. Manager of Supply Chain Textiles Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent software from an excellent company" October 3, 2018 5.0 We are moving to StockIQ to replace about 50-55 spreadsheets that we are manually completing each day/week/month. The amount of efficiency we are gaining as well as the amazing forecasting functionality is immeasurable in value. I have been very impressed with our development team and the overall experience. Pros 1\. Ease of use 2. Level of detailed information 3. EVERYTHING can be extracted to Excel 4. Functionality 5. Forecasting Capabilities Cons So far there isn't anything we don't like about this software. Review Source RS Richard S. Demand Planner Consumer Electronics Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "StockIQ for optimal Demand and Supply Planning" July 25, 2023 5.0 My experience with StockIQ has been an extremely positive. Since integrating StockIQ into our business we have seen numerous improvements in inventory, demand and supply metrics. StockIQ interface and functionality makes it efficient to deal with our 50'000+ SKU count. StockIQ as a company is a very accommodating and easy company to work with. Pros One of the benefits of StockIQ, is that it keeps on evolving, adding more functionality. As a company they are agile, meaning they are listening to their customer base and continually improving StockIQ. Compared to other Demand planning tools I have worked with, this is tool is way more user friendly, has an intuitive interface, and makes it ease to measure and improve key metrics. Cons The StockIQ support is efficient and detailed in there response, however the only minor concern is that we are in a different time zone, which means support can be delayed. It would be good if they can add more width to their support hours. Review Source DT Damien T. Operations Director Wholesale Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Stock IQ Forecasting Solution" February 25, 2021 5.0 Stock IQ is a great software and their team engages actively to understand how your business operates. You aren't buying software, you adding a partner who is working with you to reach your goals. They are a trusted partner of ours. Pros The platform's functionality expands across our full supply chain for multiple users across different sectors of our business. The platform offers additional tools to help in other departments, they are more than just forecasting. Here are some great features that separate Stock IQ from it's competitors. 1- The team at StockIQ is a big part of the success for us. As a partner, they are always available to support question and engaged in supporting ways to enhance the data from the system. During the past year they setup forums, discussions, and posted best practices to managing forecasting at a time when it was necessary for all of us. 2-Customization- Being able to tie in Product Hierarchy in several levels allows for customized views for different users and maintain data integrity. 3- Executive Summary page- allows users to gain quick insight and digest what's happening in the business again with filtered views for individuals the ability to focus on. 4- Inventory Analysis - the Stratification section provides a transparent cross-section of information surrounding Product Performance as it relates to On Hand Inventory. 5- Firm and Planned tool- organize your forecast needs for both short term and long term by hierarchy, great for sales Goals and Budgeting projections. 6- Pivot tables- being able to drive into data and saving the views is of great benefit. 7- Alerts- there are lots of alerts on the platform that can be managed by the users responsibilities. Cons There is a great deal of data to users in Stock IQ that will benefit other departments with in your business. Collaborate within your organization and allow them to be part of the implementation process. Stock IQ is very supportive in adapting the platform based on new requirements. We are reorganizing our data structure to make this tool even more powerful for the whole organization and not just "Forecasting". Review Source MG Maegan G. Purchasing and Demand Analyst Chemicals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "StockIQ Purchasing and Demand Analyst Review" February 10, 2022 5.0 Our overall experience with StockIQ has been positive. It has helped us reduce our forecast error, optimize our purchasing processes and daily tasks! Pros StockIQ is very user friendly and easy to train new employees on. The integration with our ERP system was seamless. The features most useful to us are forecast manager (visualization is helpful), alerts (to ensure we're staying on top of where changes are needed), inventory balancing (we have multiple warehouse locations), and firm and planned (to forecast to our suppliers). Cons For the most part, StockIQ is sufficient for our daily tasks. One area that could potentially be improved is building containers. We have strict purchasing rules given from some of our suppliers, so if we could build those in to the container building process it would be helpful. Review Source MS Michael S. Sr. Director of Supply Chain Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent System and Team!" July 19, 2023 4.0 This is the 2nd company where I've implemented SIQ. The customer support is truly exceptional. Pros The Demand Planning and Replenishment/MRP planning are the tools most used by my team. Being able to run historical forecast accuracy reporting allows for a quick gathering of data to help inform future forecasting. Having MRP drive demand signals for finished goods and raw materials has greatly increased the ability to have appropriate material where and when we need it. Cons SIQ does not allow a pull of future orders that match the layout of historical orders and forecast data. It would also be nice to create custom reporting that can be created/pulled on a set schedule and emailed...example would be every morning SIQ pulls all inventory and expiry dates and sends to me and my team. This would be a huge time saver and would free up my team to spend time in other areas. Reason for choosing StockIQ SIQ took my team out of the dark ages of excel, easy choice! Review Source SW Sean W. Supply Planner Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Stock IQ makes planning easy" July 26, 2023 5.0 Overall experience with Stock IQ is positive, the team are super helpful and friendly and are always up for hearing new ideas of how the tool could be utilised. The team's help to customise the tools to meet our company needs has been really beneficial. Pros Stock IQ is a powerful business tool for Demand & Supply Planning, and Inventory Management. Forecasting at different forecast groups which then get aggregated into one large forecast is a useful function that makes planning for different sales channels easier. This aggregated forecast then gets used in the purchasing module of the tool where its really easy to calibrate, adjust, and calculate orders to the supplier. Furthermore the tool is quite customisable and the Stock IQ team are always up for trying to understand different ways we could use the tool and implement features. Cons There's not much to not like about Stock IQ. The only function that I wish could be used better is the capacity planning module as having capacity agreements with suppliers sometimes causes our ordering to need to be tweaked more than usual. Review Source DF Dan F. President Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "StockIQ to the rescue to replace insufficient planning functionality in new ERP" December 8, 2021 5.0 The software is very intuitive which made for a rapid adoption with the planners. The planning team was up and running in short order and is planning with confidence. The user interface provides flexibility in that I can view SKU’s in aggregate or individually, which helps to analyze the flow of movement. The team at StockIQ is quick to respond to any service requests. Pros The reason we chose StockIQ is there responsive team, a supply chain planning software that is intuitive and provides all that my planners need to get their job done. I contacted StockIQ a week after going live on a new ERP. The information our planning department required to launch Purchase and Transfer orders was not available. Planners were not getting the information required to conduct daily purchases and transfers to branch facilities. The planning team was struggling to plan timely replenishments and meet the high volume of replenishments to our hub and satellite facilities due to the lack of information. The team at StockIQ fast tracked a start date and completed an implementation in three weeks. Cons We implemented the software over four years ago and can't think of any cons at this time. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies December 14, 2021 Thank you for the review Dan. It is nice to hear StockIQ was so responsive when needed, sounds like they have lived up to their statement "We are your partner, not just a vendor." Wow, three weeks to implement and train, I am impressed. VR Verified Reviewer Merchandising (Sales/Inventory) Analyst Wholesale Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "StockIQ Review" October 2, 2018 4.0 Pros The interface on this software is quite simplistic and is very easy for someone new to jump in and understand/navigate. Run times for this software compared to our previous system are also much faster and much more analytical based so you are able to do a deep dive analysis on most everything should you need to. In addition, our inventory levels have become much more effective and in line since the implementation of the software. Cons I feel like there is so much to learn about StockIQ and the training we received was not as indepth as we would have liked. Though tutorial videos are now getting posted online, there are probably some features we are not taking advantage of only for the sole fact we may not even know they exist. Because of this, it would be nice if a Handbook or StockIQ Bible was created that went into each nut and bolt of the system. I feel like this would also limit the number of emails that are sent out to the Support Group inquiring about features and system configurations. In addition, and though this has gotten better, the ability to easily upload within the interface is a huge miss in my opinion. For a company who uses StockIQ and has hundreds of stocked models, not having the ability to upload certain things puts more manual work on us to get the results we need. Review Source BS Bret S. Director of Inventory Planning Consumer Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "StockIQ - making forecasting make sense!" June 17, 2019 5.0 Our experience with StockIQ has been tremendous. We have an opportunity to influence some enhancements and add-ons and the response time from their support team is outstanding. Our planners can now spend more time assessing odd demands and make better forecasting decisions rather than hours creating them in spreadsheets. Visually, the graphs have been wonderful in creating dialogue between our inventory planning team and the sales team. Pros The user interface is great and the usability is easy. System downtime is basically non-existent and the customer support is top notch. The development team at StockIQ listens to and values the feedback they get from users and often implement suggested changes...sometimes quite rapidly. StockIQ is a great planning software for companies of all sizes and the implementation was quick and painless. Cons Not much to say from a negative standpoint. Refresh time is a little longer than we'd like, but not excessive. Reason for choosing StockIQ Good people, better value, and ability to connect and have some say in what options and abilities the software contained. StockIQ isn't locked into an "out of the box" type system. Review Source MS Michelle S. Inventory Analyst Oil & Energy Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Exceptional product to efficiently optimize you inventory requirements." March 14, 2022 5.0 I have been very pleased with SIQ. The product is fairly intuitive to use and the team provides exceptional support on those occasions where I encountered an issue. Additionally the resource library has a ton of information to help you become a power user in short order. Pros Ease of use and terrific customer support. Cons I have not encountered any major issues with this product ... in the 8 months that I have been using SIQ it has been smooth sailing. Review Source Response from StockIQ Technologies April 12, 2022 Michelle, thank you for the feedback and review of StockIQ and our customer services team! We value your input on how we are performing. Best regards, Jeffrey RC Rhonda C. Director of Purch & Tech Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "StockIQ - A Great Partner" March 11, 2021 5.0 Overall, our experience with StockIQ has been fantastic. We implemented in just a few weeks; since then Stock IQ has identified, recommend and implement changes to our hierarchy and settings which has improved our forecasts considerably. Their support is awesome. Pros The biggest Pro of StockIQ is their team; they are honest and they stand behind their product. It's rather refreshing. As for features, the product is intuitive and easy to navigate. A (new for me) favorite feature is ability to look at forecasts at various levels of the hierarchy, make major adjustments at any level with just a few clicks, and review and modify from there without having to spend hours adjusting individual forecasts. This has become an essential task due to the extreme swing in demand caused by the pandemic. Cons There really aren't any Cons. We run a pretty complicated machine here and StockIQ has worked with us to address our challenges. Reason for choosing StockIQ The people.
