I have used SOS for 4-5 years now and as I use it for inventory or sales or reports, I find that it is very straight forward. However, sometimes I need some help. When this happens I have reached out to the team at SOS and the responses have been great. Very informative and helpful.

Our company uses the mobile app version of SOS in addition to the desktop version. I inadvertently was locked out of the mobile version. Jeremy with SOS support responded within seconds of me hitting send to submit my support ticket and had me up and going in no time! I am appreciative of the expeditious response time!

SOS Inventory's most compelling feature is its tight integration with QuickBooks Online. Quickbooks Online is not an afterthought for us. Our software is built specifically for QuickBooks Online from the ground up. We’ve built our software to save you time and money by reducing duplicate data entry. Saving your staff that time goes right to your bottom line.
Without a suitable substitution for the sales order feature, QuickBooks Online users make do by creating an estimate as a non-posting transaction with the intention of converting it to an invoice later. Sales orders reflect product and service sales and can be combined on one invoice. An estimate is just a proposal and will not add to the inventory count. (The desktop version does allow users to convert estimates to sales orders by clicking create a sales order from the top of the estimate).
Receive materials, ship orders, and transfer stock between locations without extra systems or workarounds.
If you build products from components, you need to see what’s happening at every stage. With SOS inventory, you can monitor progress through production and keep raw and finished inventory in sync.
Your team moves faster when everything is in one place. Generate pick tickets and packing slips in just a few clicks and handle partial shipments without the confusion.
