"With Sortly, we have been able to quickly and efficiently add our inventory. We love that notifications can be sent to individuals when inventory is running low on a particular item."
Robin R.
"Our experience with Sortly has been overwhelmingly positive. As our business grows, so does our use of Sortly. We love having an up-to-date and easy-to-use inventory control system that helps us keep costs down. Sortly clearly takes user feedback very seriously. We have seen many of our suggested changes implemented since we started using the program."
Blake B.
"Sortly has helped my company save a lot of time when it comes to inventory management and being able to see with a few clicks what we do or don't have available."
Travis Z.
"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.
"The ability to define our own unit of measurement is so nice. It's incredible because [our measurements] can be very vague; if it's a box of boxes, it's very complicated. With Sortly, we can specify exactly what it is."
Marcon
"Overall, I'm extremely happy with the software. Its created efficiency within my business and has saved me a lot of money on part runs for items that we already had in inventory. I would highly recommend this software."

"Sortly [has been] a game changer. I am really happy with the product. It's very easy for me to do stock takes and give access to my clients to their respective bins.
