Users have highlighted the user-friendly interface, robust features, and the ability to barcode scan from multiple devices. The customer support team has been praised for being responsive, helpful, and quick to address any issues or add new features.

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!?!?!?!?!

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; sometimes you can scan 50 items fine, others just 1 or 2. Whether that's because we're scanning using the app on our phones I don't know, but it should either work or not, none of this will it fail/won't it trepidation! Update 11th Nov: Lightning are even more amazing than first thought. Since leaving the first review they have worked to implement a feature that recovers unsaved transfers in the event of a crash (now identified as an error with the Shopify app, not Lightning). Amazing work so 5 stars definitely deserved.

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, this is money totally wasted - I could have done that myself without the app.

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.
