inFlow

  • User interface feels outdated and difficult for new users to navigate
  • Customization options are limited with flaky screen customization functionality
  • Poor performance with large or complex inventories
  • Limited supply chain management features; focuses primarily on retail side
  • Basic plan has limited reporting options requiring upgrades for more reports
  • QuickBooks integration reported as problematic by users
  • BOM costing does not automatically update when raw part costs change
  • Audit trail limited to name and date, becoming insufficient as companies grow
