Looking for a Cin7 alternative?

Cin7 is a broad inventory platform that sits in the middle of storefronts, accounting and sales channels. Count My Boxes is the narrower shape: one system where the customer order, the portal and the stock count are the same record, so nothing has to be synced before the numbers are right.

What Cin7 users report

Public reviews of Cin7 describe order-status errors when it syncs with connected apps, and support that is hard to reach when something breaks. Those are the costs of an inventory system that depends on a chain of connections. Count My Boxes is a standalone system: portal and internal orders update stock the moment they are placed, and there is no sync job in between to fall behind. It does not try to be the hub for every other app you run.

How Count My Boxes handles it

Orders and stock in one place

A portal order, a sales order and a stock adjustment all write to the same item record. There is no order-status sync to debug.

Import a CSV, start the same day

Export your items and contacts from Cin7 as spreadsheets, import them, and the catalog is live. No implementation project.

Built-in B2B portal and batch tracking

Each wholesale customer gets a login, their catalog and their prices. Lot numbers, expiry dates and FEFO fulfillment are part of the item record.
