Unreliable Shopify Sync

HOW SUMTRACKER RESOLVE THIS
Sumtracker continuously syncs your inventory from all your channels to a single dashboard with no silent disconnects.
Slow Customer Support

HOW SUMTRACKER RESOLVE THIS
Sumtracker provides responsive customer support with faster issue resolution, so you can keep your inventory operations running smoothly.
Complex Features
Cin7 offers many features that seem complex for some SMB merchants. Some merchants complain they are paying for these features even though they never used them. This is based purely on personal interactions we’ve had with SMB merchants.
HOW SUMTRACKER RESOLVE THIS
Sumtracker offers the right set of features that are used by SMBs for inventory management. Some SMBs find this useful.
Side by side — what matters most
Accurate as of June 2026. Both products are actively developed.

Sumtracker costs less. And does more for a SMB merchant.
Cin7 starts at $349/month and that's before you add more users, more integrations, or more orders. Sumtracker starts at $99/month with everything included. Both prices are accurate as of July 2026.
Jewellery Store
Stationery Store
Same Orders. Same Features. Completely Different Bills.
Sumtracker doesn't look at your revenue. Both stores pay based only on orders processed. Because that's the only thing that should matter.
All prices are monthly billing rates. Prediko prices exclude the Raw Materials Forecasting and BOMs add-on which costs extra on every tier.

What Cin7 users are saying
These are verified reviews from Cin7's own Shopify
app listing as in July 2026.
The integration is clunky and filled with bugs. They haven't fixed issues that have been around since I signed up. If you're looking for inventory tracking software that works with Shopify, look elsewhere.
Since being bought out, the cost of our subscription just increases with impunity. You think you're signing up at one price, but you're not. The prices will continue to rise every year.
Stay away. Invested in help in setup but can't get any help from Cin7. Can't even contact support, waiting on replies on tickets. Person initially helping disappears as soon as one subscribes.
It doesn't push changes to a Shopify order across to DEAR. They suggested manually deleting the order and resyncing and that was pushing wrong information. Super annoyed with all the time wasted.
After a week from the first support request, they are still unable to update stock level on Shopify. Stock level is not updated and we have constant overselling that we cannot fulfil.
We pay $149 a month for premium support and they do not respond. We have tickets open for months at a time, every time they just say they need to escalate the problem.
frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between Sumtracker and Cin7?
Cin7 is an enterprise-grade platform built for complex operations but it's expensive, complex to set up, and takes weeks or months to implement. Sumtracker is built for growing ecommerce brands and is easy to set up, and use, that too at a fraction of the cost.
Is Cin7 reliable for Shopify integration?
Cin7's Shopify integration has a well-documented history of sync issues like stock disconnecting silently, orders pulling through blank, and inventory values going out of date. Sumtracker syncs reliably across Shopify and all connected channels.
How does Sumtracker's pricing compare to Cin7?
Cin7 Core starts at $349/month for 5 users. And with Sumtracker you get everything at $99/month with no user limits. That's a saving of $3,000/year on the entry plan alone and Sumtracker's pricing doesn't increase year on year the way Cin7's has since its acquisition.
Does Sumtracker support the same channels as Cin7?
Yes. Both support Shopify, Amazon, Etsy, eBay, and Walmart. Sumtracker is built for Shopify-first businesses, offering a simpler setup and easier multichannel inventory management.
