StockIQ

HTML5 user-friendly interface. Highly configurable WITHOUT customization. Customization still an option. Fantastic training. SQL database backbone for easy integration.

One of the benefits of StockIQ, is that it keeps on evolving, adding more functionality. As a company they are agile, meaning they are listening to their customer base and continually improving StockIQ. Compared to other Demand planning tools I have worked with, this is tool is way more user friendly, has an intuitive interface, and makes it ease to measure and improve key metrics.

The interface on this software is quite simplistic and is very easy for someone new to jump in and understand/navigate. Run times for this software compared to our previous system are also much faster and much more analytical based so you are able to do a deep dive analysis on most everything should you need to. In addition, our inventory levels have become much more effective and in line since the implementation of the software.

The platform's functionality expands across our full supply chain for multiple users across different sectors of our business. The platform offers additional tools to help in other departments, they are more than just forecasting. Here are some great features that separate Stock IQ from it's competitors. 1- The team at StockIQ is a big part of the success for us. As a partner, they are always available to support question and engaged in supporting ways to enhance the data from the system. During the past year they setup forums, discussions, and posted best practices to managing forecasting at a time when it was necessary for all of us. 2-Customization- Being able to tie in Product Hierarchy in several levels allows for customized views for different users and maintain data integrity. 3- Executive Summary page- allows users to gain quick insight and digest what's happening in the business again with filtered views for individuals the ability to focus on. 4- Inventory Analysis - the Stratification section provides a transparent cross-section of information surrounding Product Performance as it relates to On Hand Inventory. 5- Firm and Planned tool- organize your forecast needs for both short term and long term by hierarchy, great for sales Goals and Budgeting projections. 6- Pivot tables- being able to drive into data and saving the views is of great benefit. 7- Alerts- there are lots of alerts on the platform that can be managed by the users responsibilities.

StockIQ is very user friendly and easy to train new employees on. The integration with our ERP system was seamless. The features most useful to us are forecast manager (visualization is helpful), alerts (to ensure we're staying on top of where changes are needed), inventory balancing (we have multiple warehouse locations), and firm and planned (to forecast to our suppliers).
