Cin7 Core

Buyer beware!

We've been using Cin7 (formerly DEAR Systems) since 2022.

Since being bought out, the cost of our subscription just increases with impunity. You think you're signing up at one price, but you're not. And the prices will continue to rise every year.

I've been using Shopify since 2012, and no other third-party app has acted in this manner.

Not to mention, since using DEAR/Cin 7, our team has had to spend hundreds upon hundreds of hours troubleshooting issues and opening support requests to fix features advertised that simply did not work as intended.

A poor overall experience and bad business practices from this company.

App is ok and does the essential functions of inventory management. Has lots of integrations. Its quite expensive though for an SME with a lot of tools that aren't necessary and the interface can be a little complex to work with. Support also need a bit of pushing to get to the heart of issues and responses can be poor at times. Reporting module needs some work.

The onboarding help has been great. We migrated from Orderhive and Atulya went above and beyond to reduce the pain from migrating. She was very patient and helpful getting us up and running. We're still getting up to speed as Core has different functionality. In some cases more robust than Orderhive however there are some things in Orderhive , like one central place of truth for product information (eg prices) that pushes to all 3rd parties.
