Inventory Planner by Sage

We've been using Inventory Planner for over a year now, and it’s become an essential part of how we manage our purchasing and inventory across multiple sales channels. The platform gives us clear visibility into what to reorder, when to reorder, and how much to buy; all based on accurate forecasting and real-time sales data.

Highly recommend Inventory Planner to any growing e-commerce business that wants to take control of stock and purchasing decisions.

Terrible, terrible experience. Something broke with the connection at the end of September 2025 and it has basically rendered IP useless to us. The data is not syncing and we are not able to use it even though we JUST paid for an entire year ($4k).

Customer service is slow to respond and we're now demanding a full refund after 21+ days of "attempting to resolve this with our engineers."

Even their parent company, Sage, knows nothing about them. Tried calling Sage and cx was clueless as to who IP was.

If you choose to use them, I recommend proceeding with high caution and low expectations.

I’ve had an excellent experience working with Inventory Planner, and I’d like to highlight the outstanding support provided by their team member, Yi Chan. He has been consistently professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient throughout our interactions.

Chan took the time to understand our business needs in detail and guided us through every step with clarity and efficiency. His ability to explain complex functions in a simple, practical way has made a huge difference in our workflow. Thanks to his help, we’ve been able to optimise our inventory processes and feel much more confident using the platform.

Overall, I’m very impressed with both the product and the level of customer support. Chan’s dedication and expertise truly set a high standard.

Highly recommended.

DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS. This company has outrageous terms and conditions and will try to trap you when their product doesn't work the way they promise it does. Don't believe me read the other bad reviews. The software is great if it works, but sometimes it doesn't integrate with your other systems and Brightpearl or Sage or whoever this company is just throws you to the wolves and takes your money

They will try to blame any third party that is part of your integration they can to get out of refunding you if the product does not perform as expected. I wish I had known what a hassle it would be to deal with this company. 2 months in and still nothing works and they want to fight me every step of the way to just cancel the implementation since the software is not working with quickbooks desktop. They basically expect you to convince intuit to make their plugin work.

There is another app called Prediko on the App Store that I had before signing up for Inventory Planner. I thought inventory planner would offer more features but it is basically the same thing just way more expensive and way more time consuming to implement. I wish I would have just stuck with Prediko instead of switching to Inventory Planner.

I had a very bad experience with their customer service. I needed help reinstalling the app and was ready to pay for the monthly subscription, but I was told that my company was too small for their service. They explained that they had changed their “business model” and are now focusing only on much larger companies. I was advised to contact them again once I reach more than 1 million dollars in annual revenue, and only then they would be happy to help. It was really disappointing to have the door shut in my face like that. They should clearly state these conditions on the App Store so smaller businesses don’t waste their time.

Lavender was a great help when I didn't understand why csvs were connected

Stuck Paying for a Product We Can’t Use

We’ve been with Inventory Planner since before Sage acquired them—back when the platform was lean, reliable, and backed by great customer support. After the acquisition, our subscription cost was increased threefold.

In early 2025, after renewing our annual subscription, we transitioned to a 3PL that Inventory Planner had no integration with. Despite reaching out promptly to explain the situation and explore solutions, support offered nothing viable. As a result, we could no longer use the software.

We requested a refund for the remainder of the contract, but they refused. We’re now stuck having paid for eight months of a product we can’t use.

Support acknowledged the issue but hid behind policy instead of making any good-faith effort to help. If your business values fairness, transparency, and customer service, we strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Great support

We just started using Inventory Planner and are learning the ins and outs of the product. The support team is amazing and are very clear in answering any questions or concerns that we have. Jansen, Hector, Ade and Lavender have been extremely helpful and are very knowledgable about the software program. We know Inventory Planner is going to be a tremendous help in analyzing our inventory. Thank you again!

The support team is incredibly helpful. We have worked with them on several occasions and they are always quick to respond and address any issues we are facing. Highly recommend!
