Inventory accuracy
Component-level accuracy across bundled SKUs
Less time spent on reconciliation
Sumtracker has so many more capabilities than any other inventory program I have tried. I love the robustness of creating bundles and how seamlessly it has worked throughout my system. It's just so much more feature-rich than anything else I've found.

As the business expanded, managing inventory became increasingly complex. The team needed to keep inventory accurate across multiple sales channels, suppliers, and purchasing workflows.
Before finding Sumtracker, WMS&Co. tested four different inventory management tools — none offered the functionality they needed.
The Challenge WMS&Co. Faced
After evaluating four different inventory platforms, WMS&Co. still struggled with core inventory operations:
Bundle Management Limitations: Previous tools couldn't handle bundle creation and tracking without inaccuracies.
Inventory Accuracy Gaps: Weak tools for stock adjustments and reconciliation meant unreliable inventory records.
Functionality vs. Simplicity Tradeoff: Systems were either easy to use but lacked advanced features, or offered complexity without operational value.
Time-Intensive Reconciliation: Stock reconciliation sessions took ~2 hours each, with 8–10 hours per week spent across multiple systems and manual processes.
How Sumtracker Helped WMS&Co.
After testing multiple inventory tools, WMS&Co. found what they needed in Sumtracker:
Bundle Management: Reliable bundle creation and tracking with accurate component-level inventory updates, achieving 99% component-level accuracy across all bundled SKUs.
Stock Adjustment and Reconciliation: Dedicated workflows for adjustments and reconciliation, cutting session time from ~2 hours to 15–30 minutes. This contributed to 80% less time spent on reconciliation overall.
Centralized Purchasing: Purchase orders, supplier management, and stock control unified within a single platform.
Feature-Rich Platform: Delivered capabilities the team hadn't found elsewhere, replacing multiple inventory tools with one system.
