Sortly customer reviews and testimonials.
We're proud to be an industry-leading solution trusted by thousands of businesses.
"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.
"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.
"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
"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
"We have been able to maintain a much tighter control on our inventory. Great product!"

"Sortly has added hours and confidence to my life! As a sole proprietor with an overwhelming amount of inventory, that comes and goes in the blink of an eye, I needed a system that could keep up. Sortly excels at keeping it all organized. I am very happy with it!"
Sortly Customer
"I love this app. I have a cookie business and it helps me to see and keep track of my cutters and stencils that I use constantly. "
P.S.
"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.
"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. "
Dusty S.
"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.
