## Clear Spider Reviews
  ### 1. A difficult Inventory System

**Reviewed by:** Robert S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 24, 2024

Clear Spider simplifies inventory management, with its user interface and comprehensive range of features. Its time tracking and reporting capabilities does not allow me to monitor stock levels and make informed decisions to optimize my supply chain.

Clear Spider falls short in terms of user friendliness and customization options. The interface is overwhelming and complex making navigation and understanding difficulties. The system lacks flexibility in tailoring it to business needs, which limits our ability to fully optimize workflows and processes.

For our telecomm business Clear Spider lacks to monitor the problems associated with inventory management. Their software is not abled for tracking of stock levels streamlines our ordering process and helps us avoid stockouts.

Clear Spider has made managing our inventory difficult for my business. The real time visibility and inaccuracy of the data it provides are cumbersome. The interface is less user friendly.

The non customizable features are disadvantageous. Whenever we need assistance the customer support team is not always there promptly. The limited customization options in Clear Spider is frustrating.

It hampers our ability to tailor the software to our needs and affects our progress. Moreover the user interface isn't very intuitive leading to confusion and a steep learning curve for users. The responsiveness of customer support needs to  be improved.

  ### 8. ModusLLC

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David  D. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 06, 2020

**What do you like best about Clear Spider?**

Very easy GUI and has a lot of capabilities.  Our team needs to learn how to do use more effectively.  The Clear Spider team provides great support, examples, and guidance.  I use the tool daily to assess how it is being used and managed across all of our markets.  We are just scratching the surface of ClearSpider.

**What do you dislike about Clear Spider?**

Nothing really.  It has a lot of features and the team working with us, Max & Jyotsna, are very helpful.

**What problems is Clear Spider solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are tracking serialized assets to specific construction sites.  This saves a lot of time when we are required to reconcile our inventory with our customers.

  ### 9. Clear Spider for Inventory Managment

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rick L. | President, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2019

**What do you like best about Clear Spider?**

Clear Spider is a very flexible system, which allows customization of pretty much anything. 

**What do you dislike about Clear Spider?**

It seems like several of the connections we make with our customers could and should be standardized to be mostly the same, so that we don't have to do a custom integration each and every time.  It would be much faster and less complex if there were simply an API guide we could hand to our customer and ask them to match up to.

**What problems is Clear Spider solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We didn't know anything about processing books on an on-demand basis when we started and Clearspider helped us develop a method for doing so years ago.  We were an early adopter of POD production, allowing us to gain clients in a market with limited options at the time.

  ### 10. Inventory manager with cloud access and process management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Janosch R. | Mr., Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2019

**What do you like best about Clear Spider?**

Process management with filling tab bars, regarding the process of the sales process. To processing the inventory manager we have the possibility to fill the missing products and the sales by barcode scan - this is possible also from a mobile device.

**What do you dislike about Clear Spider?**

The cloud based access gives access to several user groups - unfortunately for abroad access they are often asking for a new registration check with a call and/or mail verification. This could make you the problem to have additional costs for the access to the internet or roaming costs.

**Recommendations to others considering Clear Spider:**

Recommend to use the cloud-based access not abroad just in the same country and from the same device - if mobile.

**What problems is Clear Spider solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The inventory management with full access to the sales calendar - good design with filling tab bars in different colours (regarding the status of the process).

  ### 11. Great inventory tracking system for clinical research startup

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mehdi Hashmat H. | Investigational Product Manager, Research, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2019

**What do you like best about Clear Spider?**

The capability to track items as micro and macro levels. It also provides a clear and easy to use interface for my coworkers in ordering the correct supplies. The logic for how Clearspider works is easy to understand.

**What do you dislike about Clear Spider?**

I do wish finalized orders could be edited and the edited/updated results would be reflected in an audit trail with the other. There is also a lot to learn about Clearspider. I wish there was a guide to how to use all of its feature in various training seminars related o that specific industry.

**What problems is Clear Spider solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Clearspider is our centralized inventory management system and is an asset to keeping us organized. We are able to achieve and resource our team in other places now that Clearspider is managing our supply inventory.
