Inventory Management for Small to Medium-sized Business
There are a million reasons why small business owners choose to ignore inventory management best practices. For example, time is usually a limiting factor. Another owner might cite the expensive nature of software built to do the task. While yet another manager might say that their sheet of paper and pen are adequate to get the job done.
All of these are legitimate reasons; however, you could make the argument that they are just excuses. With Stockpile, the free online inventory management system from Canvus Apps, you'll begin to see time savings day one. Take the time to enter in your current stock counts/items and you'll never have to do mass data entry again. The same thing goes for the cost naysayers. We built Stockpile in such a way that we can deliver the package as a service which is free to use. Now is good inventory management too costly? We think not;-)
The whole reason behind CanvusApps is to create a set of tools that make operating a samll business easier. Stockpile, our first endeavor into this market, is a simple and easy-to-use inventory management system that more than sufficient for small or medium sized businesses. If there's something that's missing from the application, just say the word and we'll do our best to accommodate your needs. For example, we've heard that you would like more granular tracking of each inventory item. With that in mind, we'll be releasing user defined fields (or tags) at the end of Q4 2012. Use it, tell us how to improve it and we'll make inventory management headaches a thing of the past.
