"Items can be moved between different locations / folders" — but, per the same review, a price or description change made in one folder doesn't carry over to the same item filed under another.
— Garan Keeler, Trustpilot review of Sortly, January 2022
That happens when an item is really a separate record per folder instead of one item with a location attached. Keeping two folders' worth of the same item in sync then becomes a manual job — and if someone forgets a folder, the price or count on file is wrong until the next audit catches it.
Each item exists once. Stock is tracked per warehouse against that single record, so the price and description you set apply everywhere it's stocked — no per-location copies to keep in sync.
Update a price, description, or reorder point on an item and it's immediately correct at every warehouse — nothing to remember to repeat in a second folder.
Track lot numbers and expiry dates per batch, sell oldest stock first, and get alerts before stock expires — the same item-level model extends to batch tracking.

Import your catalog once and every item carries one price, one description, and real-time stock across every warehouse you add.
