Review
DEAR Inventory is a great general platform for any company that sells products in the marketplace and wants to control its inventory properly and workflows about an inventory business.
Also from an accounting point of view, it is a complete end-to-end solution as it ensures that the company's accounting is 100% correct.
Advantages
The features that make DEAR Inventory a unique software are the integrations around stock control and sales workflows with Woo Commerce and Shopify, it has full bi-directional integration with Xero and QBooks Online.
And customers love the fact that they can do Vendor Deposits and Customer Deposits, tracking them correctly within the accounting system, as well as being able to do multi-level material builds for manufacturing customers and then sell through multiple sales channels.
Points against
The downside to DEAR Inventory is that the platform reports take a little while to set up and make sure you get the reports you want from the system.
