It has saved me so much time! I can monitor my inventory in one place, have alerts set up for when we need more or less product (or any other changes), etc., all from that single dashboard window - it makes life easier than ever before!! There are some limitations with regards to what products/items will show as "active" versus just being tracked by an item number but this hasn't been too problematic thus far. Give them try if they offer free trials like ours did :) We've cut down our ordering times significantly which saves us money per order AND helps keep track better via fewer phone calls & emails about out-of stock items.
