"We've been very happy with Acctivate since integrating with Quickbooks in 2012"

4/5

What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?

We like the inventory management integration, particularly how easy it is to look up products sold by customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?

When entering a new order for a customer, you either need to remember how the customer's name is exactly entered into the system or go to the search. If, as you typed in the customer, autofill options popped up, that would be very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Acctivate works great for our inventory and order processing needs."

5/5

What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?

"Snake Oil, Terrible software - Antiquated."

0.5/5

What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?

Were sold this product, they promised the world, " if it doesn't do it, we will design the database as needed." That was not the case, and this software was to be our flagship to control our sales, service, and inventory. Far from what their sales personnel sold us. We are a communications company that dispatches service technicians and tracks orders and inventory in a warehouse and mobile vehicles. Very little online sales with no retail storefront. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?

Acctivate does not track service calls, dispatch tracking, inventory tracking in vehicles, very convoluted and antiquated. Technical support does not respond to or answer your problems directly. We always informed that's in the next release to keep you on board to pay their yearly fee, which was astronomical. After $12,000.00 to purchase, then five additional modules at $1,500.00 ($7,000.00) because we needed them to get what we were looking for in our company. We lost time, not to mention the monies, with our daily operations with no refund offered and non-committal to their product, then to told the renewal is $6,000.00 a year for the support, we dumped this product and handed it off to legal to resolve.

Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:

Buy something else; this software is built on a 15+-year-old design, it needs to be redesigned to today's standards. Their salespeople are very good at misleading you and promising everything to close the sale. It cost us 22k to learn this lesson. Now we are with Tigerpaw Software and process everything timely and with no issues. Thank you, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
