Sortly customer reviews and testimonials.

"Mobile access allows us to input changes in the warehouse, rather than write it all down and input it later. This saves not only time but paper as well."
Cassandra R.
"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.
"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 been essential in our establishment. It has given us the ability to quickly visualize the large facilities we work in with the help of folders and subfolders. We can review all inventory folders and subfolders, which equates to the entire building and the dozens of ooms within it. Once we clear out, we can check Sortly to see all equipment within that building and remove that equipment."
Donnie B.
"This is by far the best Inventory Management Software that I've used. Not only is it simple but it's also powerfully customizable to set options just the way you desire. "

"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
