Easy ERP **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 11, 2023 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Very intuitive if you were using Quickbooks before, and the tracking system is excellent. There is also an add-on for the supplement industry that we haven't kimplemented yet but it seems very promising. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Forecast and dashboard are not very advanced. They could be a bit better. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** The tracking of lot number and the graph made from it are perfect for the supplement industry and the pricing is also very good for such product. ### 2. Great data base but needs some minor updates to make more user friendly. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Allison W. | Customer Service Account Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 02, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I like that Acctivate works hand in hand with Quickbooks. The Sync function is beneficial to time management on entering information twice. Also, I like that when you enter a product in inventory, it is easily editable or to make a copy of. The create button is helpful as well because that has all the options and steps you need to be located in one place. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I wouldn't say I like that that system has to be babied a bit. For example, once a product is entered into a PO, it is locked into whatever price you entered into that PO unless you go back into the PO and void it, change it, and re-issue it. Then the cost of the product can be edited. It sometimes makes things hard to edit, and going through that process messes up inventory. Also, I love the sync feature, but sometimes, when stuff carries over, it messes up invoiceing, classes and other essential fields in Quickbooks. I have also noticed that if you take payment in Quickbooks, that does sync into Acctivate to show that the product has been paid for. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** They have stated that they are solving some of the Syncing issues between QBs, which will alleviate a lot of troubles. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hey Allison, Thank you so much for taking time to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience. We take feedback like your very seriously as we are always looking for ways to improve the Acctivate experience. It sounds like there may be a few things in your Acctivate experience which are not typical and I would like to see if we can get to the cause. For example, Payments created in QuickBooks should absolutely sync over to Acctivate, I would like to take some time to see if we can sort out specifically what you are running into so that we can make your Acctivate experience better. If you would like some help with that, feel free to reach out to me directly at matt@alterity.com. ### 3. Very robust software, not easy for small companies to tackle **Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food Production | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The potential in the software is huge. After building out the system, it is extremely powerful. And we are barely scratching the surface of the software. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** As a small company, with no CTO, building the company and implementing the systems, was quite a lift. The implementations specialist was helpful, but it will take a full-time position to train and learn the systems in order to properly implement and execute a manageable system. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are working to implement mobile inventory management. This process has not been as easy as we'd hoped. We had to rush our GoLive timeline by a month, in order to get the system up before our paid Service contract ended. This led to some minor friction with Sales Representatives. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hello, My name is Matt Allen. I am the Customer Success Manager for Acctivate. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience, we take feedback like your very seriously as we are always working to make Acctivate better for our customers. I would like an opportunity to see if we can address your concerns to improve your Acctivate experience. If you have any interest in that, please email me directly at matt@alterity.com. ### 4. Great Value ERP System for My Small Business **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Every interaction with a customer (transactions, activities, emails, phone calls, etc.) is recorded and managed within the software. The software is priced right for what it does, and support fees are reasonable. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** 1. Wish it did statements (showing payments and balances due) by combining data from various invoices and sales orders. 2. Would like a cloud service (SaaS model). 3. Would like to be able to copy individual lines of a quote or sales order, without copying the whole quote or order. 4. Would like global search function that can find anything across all customers or products, including things put in notes or other text fields., **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeps track of all customer and inventory data, in one place. Interfaces fairly well (although there are often issues) with Quickbooks. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience. We read and consider all feedback we receive and use that feedback to improve the overall Acctivate experience. I love the list that you generated of improvements that you would like to see. Many of the things in your list are things our development team is working on now, but I would like to speak in more detail on some ideas of just how you would expect these new functions to work within Acctivate. If you'd like, you can reach me by email directly at matt@alterity.com, we can set some time for a quick call to discuss the things in your list... or anything else that you would like to discuss. ### 5. Highly customizable software with a great team behind it **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wine and Spirits | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Our favorite feature is the highly customizable report system. Their support team regularly creates custom reports to suit our needs if the desired report does not already exist. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The GUI sometimes appears a bit dated, but it works...can't complain too much there. We've also had a bit of an issue integrating customer access to their order history through our website, but it's a work in progress. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Since we began using Acctivate in 2013, they've added a number of features that directly impact our business. The most impactful addition has been the support for multiple currencies within the purchasing section of the software. As importers, we deal in 3-4 currencies regularly and Acctivate makes this a simple task to handle. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hello, Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience. We consider feedback like this to be extremely valuable in helping us to make Acctivate better and better. I know that we're constantly working on the user interface better, if you have any specific suggestions on improvements that you think we could make, I would be elated to hear them. You can reach me directly at matt@alterity.com. ### 6. Acctivate Inventory Software almost has it all **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jackie N. | Accounting/Bookkeeper, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I like that you can have multiple warehouses for inventory management. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I do not like that there are multiple steps to achieve a simple goal; for instance, there should not be three parts to entering a vendor invoice, I also do not like that each PO is it's own invoice, there needs to be a solution for multiple PO's on the same customer invoice. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** There are many problems with bulk invoicing. Still waiting for the solution. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hey Jackie, Thank you for taking time out to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience. We hold feedback in very high regard as it is a primary resource we use to make improvements to the overall Acctivate experience, so again, thank you. I know that improvements to PO processing are high on the list of things our development team is working on now. We've received a lot of feedback on what expectations Acctivate users have for how this can be improved and we've already started working towards implementing those improvements in future versions of Acctivate. If you have any specific suggestions or would like to discuss your expectations in more detail, I would love to hear everything you have to say. You can reach me directly at matt@alterity.com, we can set some time for a quick phone call to discuss. ### 7. Detailed system for inventory management solution **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Cosmetics | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 24, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The features of Average Cost rolling as inventory is increased as well as decremented makes costing simple. I appreciate that some customizations are available and the team is really friendly to work with when refining the software for your specific use. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** A few features are not as intuitive or streamlined as would be ideal. For instance, it would be helpful to print directly from the transaction list instead of having to access reports and enter the specific transaction number which had to be found elsewhere first. Some customizations cannot be achieved, though this is minor as there are a robust amount of available options. I have found that it's reasonable to have at least a few workarounds in any software to have it truly fit your needs. I do wish inventory cycle counts could be edited as you may have a typo and need to correct; the ability to make a new adjustment does exist, but it skews the visual history of the cycle counts. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Tracking costs on a rolling value as the system is decremented and new purchases are made of raw materials is extremely beneficial for manufacturing. We have successfully implemented the software for our purchasing side and are beginning to progress to the finished goods and sales side. From our testing and usage so far, this has streamlined much of our work allowing us to eliminate complicated spreadsheets for tracking raw materials especially. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hi friend, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! I am always eager to hear feedback from our Customers; and am happy to hear that Costing and other Acctivate features Acctivate are working well for your business. I am also very excited to tell you that we have plans, in upcoming versions of Acctivate, which specifically address some of the features that you mentioned in your review! We are always looking to make improvements to Acctivate and feedback like this really helps us to make those improvements. ### 8. About 15 years as a user and still very happy **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Hershel B. | Technical lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 08, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The flexibility of Acctivate has enabled us to customize every aspect to our precise needs. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Having a hard time coming up with anything here.. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Instant access to both inventory details and customer details. Order entry is easy and customers benefit from an easy process on a single phone call. We are a wholesale-only business **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hey Hershel, Thanks so much for taking time to leave us feedback. We all look at these reviews and consider them so that we can make Acctivte the best possible experience for our customers. If you think of anything that you dislike or that you would like to see from Acctivate in the future, don't hesitate to reach out to me directly at matt@alterity.com ### 9. Works with their customer until the problem is resolved. Any followup items are taken care of timely **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jackie D. | Customer Service Administrator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** When you speak with some one they are very patient and helpful. Able to understand your needs even when it is hard to explain **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Cant call and speak to someone the same day; always have to create a ticket. some issue need sameday service **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** the knowledge base information if very helpful and easy to understand **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hey Jackie, Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback on your Acctivate experience. We take feedback very seriously as we are always striving to make the Acctivate experience the best it can be. I understand how certain circumstances are urgent and waiting until the next day for support isn't always ideal. I know that our Support team does generally work on a first come, first served basis; However, I also know that they do their best to prioritize urgent issues as well. One of my roles as the Customer Success Manager is to help bridge the gap for urgent issues like this. Moving forward, if you've already reached out to our support team on an urgent issue and have yet to her back, let me know and I will work to make sure our Support team knows the urgency of your issue so that it can be prioritized. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know about your Acctivate experience. ### 10. Great Inventory Software **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Katarina L. | Accounting Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 12, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Acctivate's customer service is great. The software is easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. We use the inventory tracking software, and sync to our QB account which works well. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I wish there was some additional customization options regarding the Customer portal. I do think that the documentation on the Acctivate website could be easier to navigate when trying to find answers to questions that have come up. But again, just sending in a query to their support is usually a very fast turn around. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our previous inventory tracking was far too limited. This allows us to keep close track of all of our products across our different warehouses which is great, and the landed cost function is also well designed. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hi Katarina, I'm happy to hear that Acctivate is serving your business well with enhanced inventory tracking and our direct integration with QuickBooks. We are always grateful to receive feedback on what we are doing well as well as what our opportunities are. Thank you very much for taking the time to let us know. Your transparent feedback regarding the Customer Portal and our documentation is valuable as we strive to provide comprehensive help resources. Unfortunately, the Customer Portal is part of an application which we use as our CRM and to manage tickets so we have no direct control over changes to that Portal. That said, we do have a good relationship with the application company and would be happy to pass along any specific feedback for changes you would like to see. We recently developed and launched a new documentation site after receiving feedback similar to yours. You can find our documentation site at https://docs.acctivate.com/docs/Welcome.html. We are always looking to improve our documentation. If you have any additional feedback in regard to the new site, we would again be grateful to hear it. Kind Regards, Matt Allen Acctivate Customer Success Manager ### 11. Decowraps Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Miguel S. | Development Leader, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 02, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The ease of use of the application. It is a simple to understand technological solution for the end user. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Lack of auditing of the changes that are made **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** All solutions help our company in its day-to-day work. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hey Miguel, Thanks for taking time to leave us feedback on your Acctivate experience. We are always working towards making Acctivate the best possible experience for our users and feedback like this is a huge part of that, so again, thank you. We've received a lot of feedback from different companies and industries about their expectations in terms of adding audits to changes made within Acctivate. If at all possible, I would like to set some time to discuss the specific on what auditing you would like to see within Acctivate. You can reach me directly at matt@alterity.com to set some time where we can discuss in more detail. ### 12. Cumbersome **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Import and Export | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 30, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The timeline / transactions / history features are very helpful for cross-reference purchase orders, products and customers. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** It is very cumbersome and not intuitive or user-friendly. The training does not help much with the implementation, because in our case, there are many very specific factors to our industry that are not considered at the beginning, and we've had to find alternative solutions to problems that may not apply to other types of businesses. Also, most likely, you will need customized reports and still not be able to get all the info you need. The program is not very visual, in terms of what fields must be filled out on every screen/tab, and displaying too much information on one screen. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** Make sure the system is compatible with your business and industry. Also, the software would be more helpful if you have your own warehouse to manage, but not if you are using a 3PL. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Nothing so far, compared to the previous system we had. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Thank you for sharing your feedback. I value your input and will pass this along to our product team. I would like to schedule a call with you to better understand some of these shortcomings, and determine what we can do to help enhance your experience with Acctivate. Looking forward to speaking with you further, Matt Allen Acctivate Customer Success Manager matt@alterity.com ### 13. New to Acctivate **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Devices | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 12, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** It is easy to use for the most part and works with Quickbooks. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Some of the procedures do not seem intuitive. Everything seems so manual. It does not have much automation and requires me to remember much of what is happening. Also, much information must be updated in QuickBooks, not in Acctivate. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** It tracks lot numbers of our products. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hello there, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on your Acctivate experience. We take each review very seriously as we are always striving to provide the best Acctivate experience possible. I'm happy to hear that Lot tracking is helping you manage your inventory, I know that's a major strength of Acctivate so it's good to hear that it's working well for you. I realize that having to add/update certain datatypes in QuickBooks can be inconvenient, but I will say that the list of things which must be created/updated in QuickBooks continues to grow smaller and smaller as new versions of Acctivate are released. I would love to hear more detail on what procedures you would like to see more automation from so that I can communicate those potential enhancements with my Development team. If you would like to discuss that in more detail, don't hesitate to send me an email at matt@alterity.com. Thanks again for taking the time to provide feedback on your Acctivate experience. ### 14. acctivate! the best ERP hands down **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Alex L. | business development manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2018 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Ease of use, customization, ability to set different roles for different users. I love how the customer service team is constantly improving their processes, and now I can submit a support request directly from acctivate website. I get an email sent to me confirming it was created, and I can reply to that email to further communicate with the support team. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** updates tend to fix issues but cause existing-working things to stop working. However, i do understand that this type of stuff happens across all industries. Fix 1 thing, break the other. There will always be fires to put out as we continue to change, edit, and improve our processes and flow. The least amount of custom coding you can work with the better as this type of data is the ones most likely encountering issues with updates. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** If you are currently shopping for a new ERP system, i highly suggest you go for it ! Use Mendelson consulting for the implementation; they made the transition smooth and painless. They were local to us here in South Florida, however, they work all over the country across a broad range of clients in different industries. If you have a problem, i am sure Mendelson will come up with a solution! **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** We used to manage and count inventory by hand, many many years ago. However, since migrating over to acctivate, all these manually counts are now done from the comfort of a desk looking at accticate. Manual counts have decreased in size however they are still important as you must audit and correct your inventory from time to time. Acctivate allows us to pull reports on products, customers, or POs in seconds. **Official Response from Erica Avila:** > We greatly appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear about the benefits gained across your business. We strive to deliver software updates to provide fixes and enhancements and if there is a specific issue you have experienced after an update, please reach out to our support team with the details. They are here to help and can be reached Monday – Friday at 817-870-1311 or online by submitting a support request at https://help.acctivate.com/requests/. Thanks again for taking the time to share how Acctivate is working in your business. Best, Erica Avila ### 15. Acctivate is easy to use and has great customer service!! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Acctivate has everything we need to run our business. We can view inventory, process orders and payments, and set up our shipping all from one convenient location. It is very easy to use and the customer support is **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I don't have any real complaints about Acctivate, sometimes reports take a little longer to process, but I think that's more of an issue on our end. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** I would highly recommend Acctivate to any business! **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Acctivate helps track inventory, manage orders, process payments, integrates with our selling partners and generally saves us a lot of time and work when completing our orders. **Official Response from Matt Allen:** > Hi Friend, I'm happy Acctivate is providing you and your business with better inventory tracking, Payment management and Shipping processes; and that you're satisfied with the service/support from our team. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! Kind Regards, Matt Allen Acctivate Customer Success Manager ### 16. Best software and support team for small business **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Terry O. | Technical Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** What I like best is the relationship I have with the programmers and support staff at Alterity. I like that I can reach out to the staff and get a response in a day or have a quick call to explain any issue. As for the software, I really love how it conforms to our business rules and immediately transcribes units of measurement from orders into our production. I especially like how we can utilize many sources from suppliers with their different names for each component. I'm very grateful that the product serves as a backbone to our ISO and NFS certification processes, and the best part, it's very affordable. Best value of all the ERP systems I've evaluated. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Not nit-picky personality doesn't always serve well with dislikes, but there are some basic (IMO) things I'd like to see in future builds - such as a modification to the Crystal Report Viewer that allows naming files automatically from report fields. I'd like to see a way to enter QC data into the workflow process, and I'd like to hide some collums in the Assembly screens that are not needed for batch makers. Other than that, the flexibility of the system far outshines the few minor things. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** We used Excel to run the company for 20 years, but the complexity and redundancy of the workflow were choking any productivity we had. Our office manager was always jumping between Quickbooks, Excel, Outlook, Word, FedEx, UPS, TrueCommerce , Shipping Companies Online, and Adobe Acrobat. Nothing integrated, and the copying between apps was driving her crazy. Now she's got everything from one app that integrates with everything nicely. ### 17. Great Software backed by Helpful Team **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan J. | Executive Vice President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Tracking serialized inventory is a breeze. The Landed Cost function helps to track freight cost per item. The seamless integration with QB made it an easy choice for us. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Not a lot we need that Acctivate doesn't do. Some reporting is a little lacking. Exporting some reports to Excel could be better. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** Great software backed by a great company. Customer service is top notch. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping track of Sales Order, especially in today's world of supply chain disruptions. The Order Manager helps our whole company stay organized. ### 18. Could not have done better! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jennifer R. | Co-Owner/Accounting, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 28, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Extremely user-friendly. the program is so east to manuvere **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Nothing as of yet, however - we are not using it at its full capacity. We are currently running just the purchasing side. It is working extremely well for us **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** accuracy of inventory. Moving away from the spreadsheets **Official Response from Erica Avila:** > Jennifer, It is great to hear about the success you and your company are having with Acctivate now in place. We are here to help support you all in your continued success. ### 19. Acctivate is really easy to use and user friendly. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Cameron L. | Warehouse Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I find that the workflow statuses of the orders help out quite a bit. You can customize them as you need, and when you go through the process the orders get placed where they need to go. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The scanner capabilities of Acctivate are where we are running into issues. I am not sure if we are expecting too much from the scanners, but knowing how to be able to do everything on the mobile level would be nicer. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** We benefit mainly from the inventory management side of things. From start to finish, Acctivate helps us get our orders in, tells us what we have and don't have, and lets us get products out the door. ### 20. Acctivate Review for manufacturing to end delivery and service company **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sarah M. | Managing Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Information is easily accessible for a main distributing company. Crystal reports allows for a company to manage information needed for daily operations. Support is communicative and there is a wide database for knowledge articles and training webinars. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** There are some issues with updates and Microsoft errors for data processing with larger sized companies and multiple levels of components or calculations needed. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** The track and trace helps with lot identifying and being able to help with food related product traceability. Business activities helps track metrics related to all sorts of labor and overhead related tasks. ### 21. Logistics Coordinator **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** It is a useful way to manage our inventory, and we look forward to adding barcode scanners to our system soon. The current method is outdated, so barcode scanners should make us more efficient. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** It sorts the items for the pick ticket, but doesn't sort them after the items are picked. Then I have to look for each item out of order to enter the lot code. I emailed about this, but they have yet to add the feature. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are managing a business that receives and moves lots of inventory. We need this software to keep track of all of our ingredients, merch, products/goods, in order to meet our customers needs. **Official Response from Erica Avila:** > Thank you for sharing your feedback. It is great to hear that you all will be utilizing mobile barcoding across your operations. As for the pick tickets, they're designed to sort by bin locations based on the optimal route to pick from the locations.

Excellent Inventory Control Software **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jaqueline A. | Business Office Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Acctivate has been a tremendous help in keeping our inventory in check, allowing the office and warehouse to have the same information at all times. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** We have to synch with QuickBooks, which the majority of the time goes smoothly. The few times we have issues, the report shows what needs to be corrected. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** Hands down, Acctivate was the best choice to maintain our inventory. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Receiving the products and maintaining an accurate inventory account has been a breeze since we started using the software. ### 23. Acctivate integrates nicely with Quick books. Keeps track of inventory so much better. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeff S. | General Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Great solutions for Lot # & tracking landed costs of inventory. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** As Acctivate & Quick Books are 2 separate systems, people need to be trained on both systems. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping track of product coming in from overseas is much simpler. We can see quantities that are on the water in product inquiry & can inform our customer immediately when we will get restocking in the warehouse ### 24. Great **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David E. | O, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Quick, fast, reliable. Easy to train employees to use **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I would like to see some additional built-in reports and see part number auto-fill when entering in a sales order or purchase order as you type. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** We have been using it for 12 years, and it keeps getting better with each release!

However, we have worked out an alternate solution. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Most important has been finding a solution to capture our marketplace orders (ebay, amazon, walmart, etc) and import them into acctivate. Again, a direct integration would be helpful but your customer service has worked hard to find a solution. ### 26. Reliable and Efficient - Scaled Perfectly for What We Need **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Amber H. | Owner/Administrator, Food & Beverages, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2017 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Acctivate has been our software of choice for over 10 years now.

For instance, when you click the magnifying glass to look up on either customer, sales orders, products, etc., I would like to be able to customize what appears on that grid. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps us see our "dead stock" and make a plan to get rid of it. In the past, we didn't even know we had it! ### 29. ACCTivate makes it easy to manage our inventory. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Liz G. | Director of Sales and Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** They make it easy to manage our inventory.

Does what you need it to do but could definitely be more user friendly and more streamline. **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kyle G. | Warehouse Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The color of dots indicating what the order status is and the layout of the tabs at the top of the screen. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** I dislike how when you print an order or a pick ticket the system just moves the order wherever it wants to. Also, as far as locations go. Whenever I receive inventory in it just kinda throws the product in whichever location it wants to if that location is saved. No matter if you enter a new location, it always defaults ba to that, causing negative quantities. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Printing and managing orders in a timely fashion. ### 31. We've been very happy with Acctivate since integrating with Quickbooks in 2012 **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tom C. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2021 **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. **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. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Much better inventory control. ### 32. Decent Inventory Software **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jessica S. | Logistics Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2022 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** What I like best about Acctivate is how easy the software is to learn and use. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** What I like least about Acctivate is that it struggles a bit with complete manufacturing. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Problems I've been able to solve with Acctivate relate to Purchasing.

Snake Oil, Terrible software - Antiquated. **Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Robert H. | Vice President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2021 **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 an communications company the dispatches service technicians and tracks order and inventory in a warehouse and mobile vehicles. Very little online sales with no retail store front. **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-commital 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, **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** Sales through Service calls, Inventory tracking, Mobile inventory, Project Management, Working with Quickbooks. ### 35.

Not only offers complete inventory management but also has add-on applications like business activity management that truly enable a full MRP system. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** CRM functions could be more robust.

In addition, the integration into the existing network has been very easy - scanners are recognized immediately and product information can be added in a few steps. ### 49. 32-Bit only Windows Office 365 Support Only Acctivate Workaround is a Significant Security RISK **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wholesale | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 12, 2020 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The Software cost is reasonable. The on-boarding process is very well supported. The Server and workstation software install is trivial as the on-boarding support person fills in most of the blanks. The knowledge base is large and answers most questions. Support is excellent. The support for QuickBooks is great but see my dislikes if you plan on using this software. I don't think Acctivate understands much about State and Federal Compliance Regulation and they should since this is a business financials driven application. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** If you are using Office 365 (the 64-Bit version) it is not supported, email does not work (in App) to send invoices from the Acctivate App to your customers. The Acctivate suggested Workaround is to install an SMTP Relay. This is a SERIOUS SECURITY VULNERABILITY, if you setup an SMTP Relay you will be sending customer account information in a clear text email which anyone can read, so invoices with account numbers can also be read BY ANYONE. I sent a very long worded email to an acctivate rep about this on April 7th and have received no response, today is April 12th. https://hub.acctivate.com/articles/sending-email-with-office-365 is the Link from the acctivate Knowledge Base on their Website support page which discuses the 64-Bit workaround. The only way to fix this issue is to build an SMTP Relay and add an SSL/TSL certificate which will cost ~$400.00 for 5 years. If you install the certificate it likely wont fix the issue unless you also configure an IIS server, so you need a web server to fix an email issue. Additionally, Acctivate does not even hint at installing a security certificate in their support guide. The current version of Acctivate is 11.0 SP1 which was just released and is only a 32-Bit application, so if you have a large organization that will be using this Application your going to run out of memory on your host server at the 4GB ceiling, 32-Bit apps have a 4GB memory limit no matter how much memory your server has installed. Microsoft deprecated Office-365 32-Bit in September 2018. Not Supporting 64-Bit Office is an issue, suggesting a workaround that does not meet current State and Federal Compliance Regulations is an even bigger issue. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** Make sure you are using a 32-Bit Version of Outlook. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** This has solved incoming and outgoing inventory availability and wholesaler inventory availability review very well. Acctivate integrates great with quickbooks and only really has one flaw that I can find. Acctivate is not a 64-Bit application which causes some feature failures. It also has memory issues due to its 32-Bit code base. Most Software vendors are not going to invest in 64-Bit code upgrades unless customers force them to do it. They'll wait till they are forced to do so by the Server/Client OS 32-Bit compatibility requirements, which are coming fast. If they wait too long you'll be stuck in a compatibility loop. You wont be able to upgrade a server because the application your business depends on is not 64-Bit compliant. Additionally, 32-Bit software is more vulnerable to security exploits. This is a financial based software, Cyber Security is not negotiable with this in mind. ### 50. Good inventory management software **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Building Materials | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 15, 2019 **What do you like best about Acctivate Inventory Software?** Inventory control all in one place, ordering, receiving, invoicing, and being able to see the inventory in real time. Additionally, it syncs with QuickBooks. Furthermore, such support could be quickly and easily received from a competent support team. I really like that a lot of information can be stored and accessed in reports in widgets and through quick searches. **What do you dislike about Acctivate Inventory Software?** The callback times for support have increased. It will often freeze in continuous cycles and the program will shut down. I wish this had a function to synchronize data between QB in the background and thus also be able to fix synchronization items without calling support. **Recommendations to others considering Acctivate Inventory Software:** The system seems to be more oriented towards a store-based company that also has online sales. **What problems is Acctivate Inventory Software solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use it to link Quickbooks and manage all the inventory. Before Acctivate, we didn't have a system at all, which was a nightmare. It helped us get organized and manage them. ## Acctivate Inventory Software Discussions - [How are features packaged?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/add-on-features) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Which industries does Acctivate support?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/industries-served-8f4b36db-abca-4bf1-9e28-2821dd33b087) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [How is the accounting aspect of a business managed with Acctivate?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/accounting-integration) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [View Acctivate Inventory Software pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/acctivate-inventory-software/reviews?b-trends&b-trends&b-trends&b-trends=§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-16+12%3A52%3A05+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=8522e0ce-6839-42c6-9b08-c3aa4f1f4e82&secure%5Btoken%5D=eac43d00f1803350178a493d2101d315a1fa02b00858e668d0a46a363d3a6f3a&format=llm_user) ## Acctivate Inventory Software Features **Accounting ** - Chart of Accounts - AP Automation - AR Automation - Journal Entries - Tags & Dimensions - Cash Management - Payment Batches - Payments Scheduling - Payment Settlements - Payment Methods **Multichannel inventory management** - Warehouse Inventory Transfer - Multichannel Inventory Syncing - Multi-Warehouse Routing **Warehouse Definition** - Locations - Visualization - Warehouse Slotting **Barcode support** - Symbologies - Serialization - Standard formatting - Printing - Integrations **Order Entry** - Entry - Register - Notifications **Distributor Operations - Beverage Distribution** - Inventory Management - Order Processing - Product Information Management - Route Planning - Compliance Tracking **Agentic AI - Accounting & Finance** - Autonomous Task Execution **Inventory** - Inventory Tracking - Inventory Costing - Product Master - Inventory Forecasting - Integrations **Logistics** - Cross Docking - Receiving - Pick & Pack **Design** - Label formats - WYSIWYG editor - Color editor - Graphics import - 1D and 2D barcodes **Order Tracking** - Shipping - Tracking - Backorder **Sales Tools - Beverage Distribution** - CRM - Billing and Invoicing - Sales Reporting & Analytics **Warehousing** - Locations - Multi-Warehouse - Third-Party **Inventory Management** - Inventory Tracking - Inventory Costing - Product Master - Inventory Forecasting - Integrations **Analytics** - Error Tracking - Procurement analytics **Inventory Management** - Stock Levels - Flow Of Goods - Reserving Goods **Platform Capabilities - Beverage Distribution** - Mobile Access - Platform Integrations **Purchasing** - Demand - Purchase Orders - In Transit - Receiving **Inventory Management** - Customer Portal - Cycle Counting **Customer Management** - Order Status - Information Access - Email Notifications **Sales & Marketing** - Customer Master - ATP - Order History - Returns - Credit Limits - Pricing & Discounts **Subscription Management** - Payment Data - Payment Gateway - Billing - Automatic Payments **Assembly** - BOM - Kitting - Disassembly **Agentic AI - Order Management** - Adaptive Learning - Natural Language Interaction **Logistics ** - Picking & Packing - Packaging - Shipping - Routing - Tracking **HR** - Payroll - Workforce Management - Time & Attendance **Generative AI** - AI Text Generation - AI Text Summarization **Inventory Management Platform Features** - Centralized Inventory Database - Inventory Level Dashboards - Stock History Reporting - Low Stock Notifications - Bundles, Kits, & Variants - Asset Tracking - Inventory Forecasting - eCommerce Integrations - Accounting Integrations - Data Exporting / Importing **Agentic AI - Distribution ERP** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning ## Top Acctivate Inventory Software Alternatives - [Fishbowl Inventory](https://www.g2.com/products/fishbowl-inventory/reviews) - 4.0/5.0 (267 reviews) - [Descartes Finale Inventory](https://www.g2.com/products/descartes-finale-inventory/reviews) - 4.8/5.0 (40 reviews) - [EZO](https://www.g2.com/products/ezo/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (387 reviews)
