## Reviews

### "Powerful Forecasting with a Learning Curve and a Few Integration Quirks" — 4.0/5

> **Frank** | *March 21, 2026* | Business Supplies & Equipment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Inventory Planner offers highly granular forecasting tools that let you tailor algorithms, seasonality settings, stockout corrections, wholesale‑exclusion logic, and even per‑warehouse lead times at the product level, which makes it extremely powerful once you dial in the right parameters. Its integration with Brightpearl is flexible enough to support complex workflows—such as excluding intercompany transfers between different legal entities from forecasting—so the data stays clean, and once everything is configured, creating purchase orders in Inventory Planner and pushing them to Brightpearl becomes a smooth, reliable process.
> 
> **Cons**: When we initially used Inventory Planner for assemblies—a secondary feature—it had a couple of limitations with the Brightpearl integration: assemblies always picked component inventory using FIFO with no way to override location choice, and there was no simple way to break down an assembly without manual adjustments. Outside of assemblies, the platform’s depth does come with a learning curve, and while support eventually resolved a reproducible UI bug we reported, they only prioritized it after escalation.
> 
> We originally adopted Inventory Planner to fill Brightpearl’s lack of native assemblies before transitioning to its true strength in forecasting, and that’s where the software has proven its value. The platform rewards the time spent fine‑tuning lead times, days of stock, and forecasting models, and our implementation consultant was excellent in guiding us through the process. It also accommodated our more complex setup where transfers between two legal entities required both a purchase order and a corresponding sales order to flow between systems, and Inventory Planner provided the controls needed to ensure those orders were excluded from demand forecasting so they didn’t distort actual sales trends. Once configured, Inventory Planner effectively replaced Brightpearl’s limited forecasting tools and became our primary workflow for building purchase orders before pushing them into Brightpearl.

### "IP experience" — 4.0/5

> **mariano** | *December 8, 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We can centralize all our channel information within a single tool.
It also allows us to easily input replenishment needs for our products.
> 
> **Cons**: Limited flexibility in customs reports, which may make it harder to adapt to specific market or regulatory requirements.

Reports may not be easily understandable for employees who don't use the tool on a daily basis, potentially causing confusion or requiring extra training.
> 
> I consider it a very useful tool if you need to centralize multiple sales channels and warehouses. We also use this tool to forecast the annual production plan and the monthly replenishment we need.

### "Inventory Planner - Good Software" — 4.0/5

> **Luke** | *June 26, 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Overall product is very good for our business needs. We did have initial teething problems, which were quickly rectified by the team to ensure the forecast works better for us. Additionally, my account managers \[sensitive content hidden\] have only ever been helpful, and have guided me along the way with anything I was unsure on.
> 
> **Cons**: Missing some aspects to provide better forecasting (e.g, ignoring periods where an item is in the sale thus falsely inflating R.O.S, or ability to deduct smaller PI's from a larger one).
> 
> Good. I have used this software for a year now, and have just renewed our contract, due to the product working well for our business needs.

### "Inventory Planner" — 5.0/5

> **Marion** | *December 15, 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is great to see all the sales forecast in one place. We are continually learning how inventory planner works and continually optimising it
> 
> **Cons**: The planning board could be bigger and sometimes you need to go to several different screens to find out the information.
> 
> Overall a good experience. Online help is very good and generally you can resolve issues very quickly.

### "Consistently proven to be a powerful tool for demand forecasting" — 5.0/5

> **Mariusz** | *July 23, 2025* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1. Custom Integration Flexibility:
Supports external data feeds via Google Sheets, allowing custom workflows beyond built-in connectors.

2. Scalable Replenishment Planning:
Effectively manages complex demand forecasting across thousands of SKUs and multiple suppliers, reducing overstock and saving time.
> 
> **Cons**: Custom Feed Performance:
While the ability to use Google Sheets for custom data feeds is valuable, the sync process can be slow for large datasets. A direct database integration feed would offer better performance and scalability.
> 
> We’ve been using Inventory Planner for over a year, and it has consistently proven to be a powerful tool for demand forecasting and stock replenishment. It handles complex multi-supplier environments with ease—we manage over 3,000 SKUs across 20+ suppliers—and its predictive models have notably increased our ordering precision. A key advantage is the ability to import external data via Google Sheets, enabling us to implement custom logic and accommodate edge-case workflows that fall outside the scope of built-in connectors. The reporting capabilities are comprehensive, with flexible filters and export functions that facilitate in-depth analysis. Since adopting the platform, we’ve streamlined our procurement processes and significantly reduced excess inventory.
