Cohub Inventory Counting

This is the only way we count our retail store. Being able to use multiple devices and work as a team while having the store be actively open to customers is essential. This app tracks all the activity. The built in aggregation feature that automatically totals amounts together if products are scanned separately due to location or timing saves time, sanity and ensures accuracy. An essential app for any product based store.

The customer service has always been friendly, prompt and helpful.

As a team committed to meticulous inventory management using Shopify, we recently integrated the Cohub cycle count plugin with high expectations. Our goal was to streamline our inventory processes and enhance accuracy. However, our initial experience has been less than satisfactory, prompting us to seek immediate assistance to resolve pressing concerns.

Our team of three dedicated members invested three days in a comprehensive cycle count operation. Unfortunately, we are encountering critical issues in the aftermath of this extensive effort. Firstly, the upload process, which is a vital step in syncing the counted inventory with the system, is vexingly slow. We have been waiting for over 24 hours and the upload is still not complete. This lag severely disrupts our workflow and raises concerns about potential data loss and subsequent inaccuracies.

Furthermore, while we are currently conducting a cycle count in another branch, we have discovered that only a fraction of the counted variants are visible on the system. Out of the 740 variants meticulously counted, merely 114 are being displayed. This discrepancy is alarming as it raises doubts about the reliability of the plugin and compromises the integrity of our inventory records.

The aim of implementing Cohub was to achieve precise and reliable inventory tracking. However, these issues have resulted in a standstill of our operations and question the plugin's capability to handle large-scale data efficiently. We urgently require support from Cohub's technical team to address these problems. Our priorities are to speed up the remaining upload, ensure all counted variants are correctly reflected, and to understand why these impediments arose in the first place to avoid future recurrences.

We are hopeful that Cohub's customer service will respond promptly and provide the necessary assistance to rectify these issues. A swift and effective resolution would not only enable us to proceed with our inventory operations but would also restore our confidence in the plugin's functionality.

We plan to revise or remove this review once we receive the support needed and our inventory counts are accurately updated and stabilized within the system. We look forward to a timely and helpful response from the Cohub team.

It looks like the app is not being maintained. No updates since 2022.
The app would not install on a new Samsung Galaxy S23, our standard phone for the business. So it was a waste of time even trying to test the app.
There is NO clear documentation on compatibility, and surprised you have to use a small mobile app, and have no option to use the app through the browser.

I am happy to update the review if there are acceptable responses by the developer.

The app works flawlessly, and addresses the issues we had with other stock taking apps. The function to "0 out uncounted items" is hugely appreciated. Scanning with the phone sometimes has trouble with older or faded barcodes, but it is just as easy to connect a socket scanner to your phone to make things go a bit faster. Preformed inventory at 2 locations with some 8k SKUs and had no problems. Support is responsive.

Looks a good app, and the mobile option is good, but it will be great if you can support continue scanning with a barcode scanner, mobile camera are not always accurate when reading barcode, you should try to enable a simple text input so user can scan barcodes with a scanner.
