Sortly customer reviews and testimonials.
We're proud to be an industry-leading solution trusted by thousands of businesses.
"It is really easy to keep track of the items we have in our warehouse. I like how it also keeps track of the history, so it makes it really for us to see a date and time an items level decreased or increased. I also really like how easy it is to use, we were able to easily get multiple people on board to understand how it works."
Celina M.

"I honestly love the fact that I am able to monitor the in and out of each medication and clinical item used. The exporting to excel is nice to use in regards to trending metrics in regards to intake and out."
Ron G.
"Sortly makes hard finds easy finds. Apart from a few things I had in my work shed, I had no idea of what stock I had. Sortly helped me get my electrical gear in order. After inputting my stock into Sortly, I now have $20K of stock I didn't know I had."
Matthew T, Electrical Contractor
"Sortly has allowed us to keep a close eye on our inventory even when it's spread out to different locations and remote workers who depend on having the correct count in order to sale."
Tammy F.
"We need to maintain about 200 items of inventory which need to get ordered and re-ordered weekly. Sortly cuts out the excuses for items not getting monitored and ordered. Very simple and intuitive to use."

"Sortly has revolutionized our inventory tracking... Adding Sortly was one of the greatest things that we’ve done in my department to create efficiency."
Scott M, Morrow-Meadows
"I run an insurance restoration company and we keep about $30,000 in supplies on average. This helps us manage, order, and protect our inventory. We use three people to manage this process and it saves me about 20% of the value each year. "
Jay Van Deusen
"Sortly has made managing our inventory fun! There, I said it. All of our items in one place. Categorized in a way that makes sense to us. With photos so there is no confusion by only having product numbers that no one really knows. We see the value, the quantity, the item type, the variants, etc. all in one place. And, it's mobile! Our inventory used to be a guessing game before Sortly. Now, we always have confidence in what products are in stock."
Heather P.
"Pictures say it all. Every item has a picture so they are very easily identifiable. The ability to use Sortly on all mobile devices is perfect for what we do. It's the best app on the market for inventory. "
