I find StockIQ typically quick and responsive, with an intuitive platform that makes it easy to use. The forecast manager is a great quick resource, providing a one-stop shop for all relevant data on specific SKUs. I also appreciate the executive dashboard, which offers a great high-level overview of supplier network performance and inventory health. The initial setup of StockIQ was relatively straightforward, and the onboarding team was attentive and stayed on top of things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SKU classification in StockIQ is far too broad, and there aren't enough SKU classes that can be created. Having A-D only creates very broad categories and classes that don't scale well with large product mixes. There is a need to have more than four classes that can be applied to SKUs.

I use StockIQ for demand planning at a CPG company. I appreciate its statistical forecasting capabilities and how it automatically keeps our data up to date by integrating with Netsuite. I like how we can view customer forecasts in a way that makes sense to us. What really stands out is the close relationship with our representative from StockIQ, and that the company actually listens to our requests and makes changes to the software based on that.

The biggest issue we have is time-phased forecasting. We have a large network that changes semi-frequently and being able to forecast customers at a different facility in the future would be very helpful. It doesn't have that feature yet so building that would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We began implementing SIQ in 2020 to replace the manual, Excel-based forecasting we had been using previously. The SIQ team handled the integration with our ERP system (EPICOR). Since adopting SIQ, our team has gained much greater insight into stock levels, stock movement, forecasts, and more. The alert features are also very useful, as they allow us to focus on exceptions rather than trying to keep an eye on every product. The SIQ team is incredibly knowledgeable and has provided excellent training. They are also continually evolving the software, so it’s always exciting to see new features and explore how we can use them. Their support team is also excellent, and if we do have issues with data or refreshing, they are always there to help diagnose and solve the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our data wasn’t in the best condition, so implementation took longer than we expected. Especially early on (as with any software like this), you really have to pay close attention to the outputs it’s producing. We had a few wildly wrong order suggestions, which came down to our poor data rather than SIQs system, so it’s important to have your team in place to spot issues quickly and address the underlying data. If there are data issues or refresh issues, it can sometimes be a little hard to diagnose the issue within SIQ - having said that, whenever we have had issues, the support team have been great with resolving it.

The release notes and guides are very useful with each release, but the training videos in the Help centre aren’t always updated to reflect the changes that come in. It would be great to see this fleshed out a bit more and kept up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a very wide breadth within the UX/UI. There's so much you can do. I like this as it fits our needs, but could also likely fit a company that has drastically different business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

On the flip side, sometimes it does feel a little too convoluted. Like maybe it could be dialed in a bit and every feature could be really pumped up and refined. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Forecasting is the best part. It reads demand patterns better than I could on my own, so I trust the reorder suggestions and I'm not constantly checking a spreadsheet anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly not much. The setup took a bit of time up front to get the data dialed in, but once it was running it hasn't given me real problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

System features, integration, and visibility. I definitely feel like there's a positive ROI from the team's efficiency. The StockIQ Support team is really quick to respond to our issues/questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The daily refresh sometimes clouds our visibility for same-day transactions. The refresh time is 45+ mins and takes too long. If it was sometimes crazy like 5-10 mins, we would consider more frequent refresh.

There's very minor UI features that could be improved. But they're minor. For example, I can't use my mouse's middle scrolller to pane left-right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

StockIQ has very thorough functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no real downside to StockIQ. I do wish there was a more traditional and thorough user manual available for reference rather than just FAQ's and video tutorials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the forecast manager. The ability to use different algorithms to see best fit and being able to add anecdotal data using events has been extremely useful in making my forecast more accurate within lead time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were more ways of analysis where I can review our manual forecasts against SIQ's statistical and other forecasts. This is achieved using the grid and exporting to excel, but some analysis is still lacking. For example, being able to see forecast error for manual forecasts imported into SIQ.

I have been using Stock IQ so far for its Demand Planning & Forecasting capabilities. Some of the things I have noticed are its statistical modeling, and ML has picked up on trends, seasonality, and unusual events very well. We are still in the midst of re-creating our hierarchy in the tool, but there is a lot of flexibility, and support has been great. The performance has been very fast and I don't experience any lag when refreshing the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are having some trouble developing our hierarchy for our business/industry, so I wish Stock IQ could provide better examples as options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like StockIQ's offerings at the price point that it is listed. It has a lot of detailed user functionality for long-term planning for both demand and supply and tactical exception management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there could be more improvements made around the SIOP module for better visualization and reporting. The capacity module also needs some work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
