I have a love-hate relationship with this app. The basic functions of being able to make and send POs, and see/sync inventories and invoices is great. The forecasting is so-so, and doesn't always display the data you need to see. Integration is also a PITA if you have a complicated store with multiple warehouses, and 3rd party fulfillment...I turned the 3P warehouses off in the settings, why are you still importing their inventory and variants?
Customer service is also lacking. You CAN'T call them. There isn't a number. So you're stuck sending chat messages, waiting for a response, then playing chat tag for days. I've also gotten incorrect information, with them not knowing they had some functionality that I found by clicking around, and being misinformed about how some apps integrate.
This app does save me time, but if I had the time to find another similar app, I'd jump ship.
Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review, it's a shame to see a love-hate relationship with our software, but your feedback is appreciated and it is always useful to hear genuine experiences from customers.
We are limited by what we can do regarding the setup of products from an external system, however I understand that we have provided guidance on how to align IP with that system so that the issue can be overcome. In addition to this I will make sure that we reach out to you and check that you have everything you need in relation to that matter.
Finally in relation to your feedback about forecasting, it would be great to get more information about the data sources you would like to see, we will ask about this when we reach out to you.
Kindest regards,
Ade

Jansen did a great job walking through a workflow issue of ours in real time to help resolve my issue. Not only was the explanation thorough, he's been extremely helpful following up and providing step by step directions for us to use as a resource internally.
Every time I've reached out to their support team, they are timely, courteous, and resourceful.

Inventory Planner is good for stock forecasting and it's good to have a function to integration Amazon and manage the Amazon FBA PO in one app.
Hi there,

It certainly sounds like you are seeing the benefits of the software and it's many integrations! In your case Amazon.
Thanks again,

Inventory Planner is not robust enough for our needs and has a lot of bugs. Customer support is lacking after the initial training period. Once the initial training period is over the people who were helping resolve the issues just refer you to the standard support option. This app requires a lot of manual work to see the accurate results, and you need to be using the platform for over one year for accurate information as they can't factor stockouts from Shopify or Shiphero. One example of manual work that is needed to see accurate results is reviewing data for seasonal products vs new fasting selling items. We are a clothing brand so our default method is seasonal, but the app doesn't have the ability to use a different method for products that haven't been in our catalog for a full season without a lot of manual overrides.
Just signed up for this, excited to see how it all works!

When first getting to know the platfrom, it does seem like its a lot. But, once you know what you are looking at, all of that information starts coming together.
The only issue I have had so far was a variant/product issue where variats were loading as their own product rather than under the same product. I reached out to Customer Service and Jansen was the one who responded. We must have worked on this issue for 6+ months together, along with his engineering team. They did not give up until the issue was resolved. There was always constent communication between Jansen, the engineering team, and myself during the process.
If any other issues arrise I will be going to Jansen for assistance. I have been assisted by other customer service representatives before but since Jansen has more in-depth knowledge about our Inventory Planner, that I will contact Jansen for any further issues or questions.

We use this app daily, it makes predicting what inventory we need to order much easier and saves a lot of time. It's a swiss army knife of inventory functions. The support is excellent, Jansen and Kate have been fantastic.
