Great app, one of our favs and something we have been using for years now! Much better way to manage costings for our business vs the standard shopify field.

Simply Cost is amazing. It has built-in "catches" and helpful tips that have enabled us to utilize so many of its wonderful features that I do not have time to take tutorials for. I am a small business and a one-person show so the tips help me see SC's capabilities. I inherited a bad system from previous manager and Shopify and Simply Cost have helped us find simple solutions to complex problems and with this dynamic duo, I have been able to get all inventory discrepancies lower and lower every year for the last 5 years. Simply Cost is our go-to for monthly inventory reports and for tracking profits as well as looking at sales data for improving ordering process, etc. And lastly, but of great importance, the customer service I have received from Simply Cost (talking to you too, Sam!!!) has been beyond stellar! In one inquiry, they resolved an issue of a "ghost in the machine" that I had been dealing with for 4 years that Shopify help had been unable to resolve and Sam at Simply Cost was able to fix from their end. Professional, responsive, and gave me a detailed explanation of how the system works on their end so I could easily understand and know that it was not something I was doing. Amazing!! Highly recommend Simply Cost without hesitation!

We have been using SimplyCost ‑ Profit Tracking for a number of years. We find it especially useful when we're doing our end of year inventory.

We have been using Simply Cost for 6 years now and still use it monthly for extensive reports that aren’t as accessible or comprehensive via Shopify. 10/10 recommend.

We use this app to track profitability on the days we send email promotions with a discounted product. Since in this app we can see not only sales, but actual profit on that day, it helps us compare our various promotions to see which ones are the most profitable (rather than just bring the most overall revenue). The app works great, and when I recently had an issue with some reporting getting messed up (not SimplyCost's fault, but it was affecting the reports there) they fixed it for me immediately. Highly recommended.
