eTurns is a cloud-based inventory management solution that provides organizations with real-time visibility into their remote store-room inventories and the ability to trigger replenishments automatically if the inventory level falls below a pre-determined level. The product allows replenishments through several devices such as sensors, iPhones/Androids, barcode scanners, and RFID’s.
The product offers visibility into inventory status at the point-of-use, and can either work as a standalone system or as an integrated service with an ERP software. The product manages consigned or customer owned inventory, eventually optimizing all in-hand inventory levels and reducing cash in inventory cycle. eTurns enables the creation of real-time charts that measures parameters such as inventory value, turns and stockouts over time ensuring that the inventory workflow is efficient at all times. The software provides red-alerts for parts that are either moving too fast or too slow allowing manager’s to plan their stocks effectively. The product also allows users to control inventory usage by setting a max/min inventory level eliminating unnecessary carrying costs. eTurns also offers other features such as order status with the distributors, inventory categorization, custom reporting, creation of a customizable user interface, and using a common bill of material to manage parts across multiple locations.
eTurns caters to the needs of over 300 small, mid-sized, and large enterprises across industries such as distributors, manufacturers, contractors, and healthcare. Some of its key customers include Gexpro Services, Digikey, SourceOne Technologies, Cupertino Electric, Rexel Canada, Gexpro ED, Anixter, Arbell Electronics, and Electrical Wholesale Supply Co.
Pros
Light weight software, customizable, Very small learning curve, Great customer support, Detailed reporting
Cons
Some modules are only available on the website, or PDA.
Dear Carlos, thank you for your review of TrackStock and how it helped Service America to vastly reduce its cost of service. Having you call out specifically our "Great customer support" is also gratifying as we strive very hard to provide this differentiation. With regard to some modules only being available on the web or the PDA, we made the strategic decision early last year to providing all modules on both Smartphones as these devices seem to be the predominant choice for users. We look forward to your continued input on our capabilities. Thank you.

Gives great visual and control of our warehouse
Pros
The capability to breakdown data into a granular level.
Cons
Software is slow. takes a log time transitioning between pages
Dear Zach. We noticed this slowness too. It is partly driven by our growth. Consequently, we are implementing the following changes: 1) we are quadrupling the size of our database server on AWS, 2) we have switched to Windows SQL server 2017 Enterprise, which will also increase the security of your data, 3) we have moved all of the reporting workload to our Always-on database mirrored server, since all transactions have been instantaneously created there also, and finally 4) we have a Data Base Administrator continuously looking for the slower responding pages to improve response times. We appreciate your input. Please continually provide it on any topic either directly via email to us or through the Contact us page on our Web site.

eTurns has allowed the company to systematically standardize daily sales transactions. The automated EDI process has reduced the labor hours and transaction frequency that would normal be allocated to inventory management of programs. The reporting capabilities allow Gexpro Services to provide additional value adds to our customer by identifying trends and predicting future projects needs. eTurns has a plethora of features and solutions that Gexpro Services as an end user, has yet to fully maximize. My experience with the eTurns has been extremely positive.
Pros
Reporting capabilities
Ability to manage customer owned inventory
Label design feature
Both the pull and order functions remove the internal manual entry process
Cons
The inability to mitigate duplicate scanning across all functions (orders/pulls/requisitions/work orders)
We used eturns to maintain an offshore customers inventory with sight from both sides which worked flawlessly.
Pros
The software was relatively easy to use and provided a user friendly dash board.
Cons
The system needs "updated" better looking interface would be great.
Thank you for your review and input. One of eTurns TrackStock strengths is its configurability without involving developers. As such, TrackStock has a broad array of features targeted to a wide audience. Configuring TrackStock by turning off certain modules, hiding columns of information on any of the transaction grids, using UDFs (User Defined Fields) to further define items and/or transactions to suit your needs, and displaying fewer rather than more transactions all are designed to allow TrackStock to adapt to you, the user, in the most responsive and modern way. We don't believe in "one-size-fits-all" like older applications. The great news is you believe TrackStock is easy to use and has a user friendly Dashboard. Thank you.

Pros
Anixter is a distributor of advanced cabling and we've used eTurns/3 remote stockroom inventory software for over 15 years to help us manage the consigned inventories at our customer accounts. eTurns provides us with a solution that allows us to invoice on consumption, replenish as necessary and use one set of books to reconcile inventory. We are excited to move to eTurns/4 which is a browser-based solution. it is geared to our needs and that's another plus.
Cons
We wish they couldn't sell it to our competitors because it ends up being a good differentiator for us in sales engagements. Due to reasons beyond my control, this used to be the case prior to me joining the team

Our company was using JD Edwards 9.1, and although this ERP did capture usage of materials, it was driven by only manual impute of consumables. With the addition of eTurns, our company was able to provide our 75 technicians with the ability to scan items in and out of our vehicles. This provided our purchasing team with real time, accurate consumption. Furthermore, this allowed us the ability to carry less items on the trucks and lowered our cost of goods carried in doing so. We reduced this average cost on truck from $20K, to $14K, while maintaining the same service levels to our customers. We also gained the ability for automate the managing of our ROP's, and ROQ's. The software managed our replenishment effectively to the point we were able to reduce out procurement staff from 8 reps to 3, moving them into other strategic roles. Our finance team also benefited from the real time reporting modules, allowing them a real time cost analysis of the consumed goods.
