Common questions

Is StockSimple a good inFlow Inventory alternative?
For small businesses, yes. You get purchase orders, receiving, barcode scanning, stock counts, low-stock alerts and valuation reports for $6.99 to $70 a month instead of enterprise pricing. If you need manufacturing BOMs or deep ERP accounting, inFlow does more.
How do I move my inFlow data to StockSimple?
Export your products from inFlow as CSV or Excel, then upload the file in StockSimple. You see a full preview with duplicate SKUs and errors flagged before anything saves, so nothing imports by surprise. Most catalogues move over in a couple of minutes.
Do I need a hardware barcode scanner?
No. Any phone or tablet camera scans your barcodes straight in the browser, with no app to install. You can also print your own barcode and QR label sheets from your product list.
Do you charge per user?
No. Paid plans include your team with roles and permissions, so adding staff does not raise your bill.
What does the free trial include?
14 days with every feature unlocked, including scanning, stock counts, reports and multi-location. No credit card is needed to start.
