Netstock Reviews

Forecasting, purchase order creation, data quality checks, enquiry screen, lead time calculation, safety stock calculation

I also like that I could add vendors at my pace - so I started small and increased as my confidences and knowledge increased

Inability to move from one item to the next (with like an arrow) function. Not being able to add days to the policy overrides. Vendor report cards would also be nice. More learning modules after the on boarding would be nice.

The ease of the exports is great. We use much of the Netstock info in combination with our regular ERP to create early buy presentations.

I really wish the TTM month sales data could be viewed at item level when exporting a particular Warehouses data in excel. Currently, the only way I know how to view TTM month sales data is click on each individual item and view it on the item's tile.

Netstock provides a customer friendly lay-out, delivers a great job on forecasting, taking all kinds of factors into account, like seasonality.
It also has a dynamic daily safety stock calculation.
Furthermore, our assortment is analysed in the Classification Matrix, which offers a clinical possibility to de-range products that don't contribute that well to velocity and margin.

In our situation it's not possible to have a correction in place regarding out-of-stock positions (I'm not sure if this is Netstock related or the way Netstock has been implemented for us).

Being able to manage buying and keep stock of the right things. We don't overbuy things we don't need anymore!

Some complicated things to learn up front. The need to get other members of the company on the same page.

Makes our daily ordering easier than what is previously was

Our back end team is based in a different time zone, making it difficult when the reporting doesn't refresh overnight

Netstock is easy to use so basic users can get the infor they needs quickly, while having enough depth for more advanced users to dive deeper in the data.

There is little customization possible and the support documentation can be basic at times.

My favorite tool on Netstock is the BOM. This helps me see where the part goes and what part has the greatest demand. I also like seeing the recommended order amounts and the model stock holdings.

I dislike that it doesn't take blank orders into effect.

Overall, layout is great, I can see everything on dashboard at once for easy inventory management. Many very helpful features.

Not completely customizable like I wanted it to be.

Best demand planning software that I've used to date.

Some of the users have voiced their preferences for live updates

its help me stay in stock and not over stocked

Reports
Need more detailed reports in a simple format

Easy to use and dashboards are created to make this easier even more

I would say price is the only issue. It could be slighlty cheaper

Its very easy to deploy and use with very little downtime or risk.

There isn't much flexibility without extra costs.

The ease of access with in-app walk-throughs of the various functions. It made learning and mastering its uses very intuitive.

UI on the homepage is a bit crowded but you get used to it quickly.

The dashboard is a great first glance to see what should be prioritized!The online support for the platform is next level!Great educational software to build confidence and understanding of the platform!

That we don't have the IT team here to support the integration into our other platforms

Setup process was very quick and easy and the onboarding period was very helpful Creates a robust demand/supply process without need for spreadsheetsSaves lots of timeSupport staff are excellent, quick to respond and always find good solutions to different situations that arise

Some more advance features seen in other software not present

Easy access and a very good training program.

The integration passed as smoothly as possible. No issues

Ease of useClear forecasting functionalityEasy to amend forecasts and tailor to suit own needs

The search function needs to be able to find items without being so accurate

The layout of the dashboard gives an immediate snapshot of all points of interest for inventory management i.e Value of stock on hand, excess stock, out of stocks

Initial exposure was a bit overwhelming with all the information presented but that is nothing some training couldn't fix

I love the ability to forecasting and set up safety stock numbers. The ability of leaving comments under each item

Can't see the customer name only a code number.
