It made us possible to manage purchase and sales orders from a single framework to such an extent that it's packed with order tracking tools, invoice management tools, inventory controls tools and so on.

Very easy to use and set up. My staff who have little experience with inventory management was able to figure out the system without much difficulty. We have an ISP business here in Belize that has been a manual entry of inventory for over 18 years.
