this app is great. what would be greaterer would be finding out that there is a 100 line item limit to csv population of transfers another way than by happenstance troubleshooting an inventory issue. where's the documentation!?!?!?!?!

Great app - Exactly what i was looking for. Their customer support team is wonderful & very helpful
— GroceryGo
Generally this app is amazing and helps us manage inventory in and out exactly how we need it to; total game-changer in speed and accuracy of operation. The one thing that lets it down is that when scanning items, sometimes the app will just close itself down and you lose everything you've done so far. The way around it is to save a draft periodically, but there's no pattern to the crash; someti...

Yes, it's very useful and convenience.

Lifesaving app. We use it to keep track of our returns and the functionality is great. We are able to barcode scan from multiple mobile or ipads and keep the count in one file, ready for a list to transfer back to our main warehouse. The customer support is outstanding, regular improvements and very responsive.

Managing our store's extensive inventory was made incredibly simple with the Lightning Inventory app. With hundreds of SKUs across various locations, this app's user-friendly interface and robust features streamlined our process greatly. Tracking, updating, and organizing products feels like a breeze now, and the reduction in errors and stock discrepancies has been remarkable. The Lightning Invent...

Super Service and Super Product. Doing Inventory transfers in Shopify is a nightmare as it does not have a native csv option to do bulk transfers. This app does just that. Makes life so much easier. Phil was a great help. In short Kudos to the team for creating wonderful piece of tech. Keep up the good work.

Extremely useful, and the dev team was very helpful and quick to respond and add new features! Great for inventory adjustments and transfers via barcodes
— LacedUp
This is the app we have been searching for the longest time! It has solved a huge amount of inventory issues for us and has saved us a hours of time. Not only is it a easy to use app, the support team has been quick to help us resolve any issues. Thank you, Phil for your help. I will be recommending this app to others.

Amazing app and team! I've been using Lighting Inventory for about a month now and we do all changes of inventory through it (adding stuff or removing stuff). I love the simple yet very functional interface and the dedicated team! Just stop looking for other inventory apps, this is the one!

I have been using this app for sometime now. Recently we had a technical issue and after reaching out we had no reply, this lead me to leave a negative review. This negative review promoted Phil to reach out to me. Turns out they had a technical issue with their messaging system (we all have them from time to time). After listening to our issue the team set about to fix the error which was achieve...

I wish this did the one simple thing I needed it to: move all of my inventory at one location to another with one click. But it doesn't. I still had to choose every item (over 200 of them) manually, add them to a list and then manually click through every one to bring its number to zero at the first location, having also adjusted the inventory numbers individually at the second location. For me, t...
