CNET Editors' review
Inventoria is the inventory and stock management component of NCH Software's integrated business suite, though it also works quite well as a standalone inventory and bar code tool. It can track and manage inventoried items for multiple businesses by location, vendor, and other categories. It can generate reports, issue low stock level alerts, order new stock, track purchases and sales, manage customer and supplier contacts, post inventory lists online, compute taxes, sends faxes, and more.
When we installed Inventoria, we were prompted for our business name and other details, but you can skip that step and enter the data later. The program's interface is easy to navigate, with most tasks and functions listed in a left-hand guide panel. We like the ability to customize the toolbar and the file menu bar, especially the quick and easy method of adding our own specific entries to the Categories, Locations, Suppliers, and Customer menus, giving instant access to our most important data. Clicking Web Access let us set up and access a free, password-protected online account for posting inventory data others can access, such as in-stock items or quarterly sales. Inventoria's pop-up dialogs and ample Help menu simplified the process of taking inventory, though of course you first must enter each item. Inventoria supports bar code scanners, which can greatly reduce the time involved in not only entering your stock but also tracking it.
We've tested many inventory management tools ranging in complexity from Not Very to Why Didn't I Hire Someone To Do This? Inventoria is definitely more Mom-and-Pop than CPA-on-a-CPU, yet it seems to lack nothing it needs to do its job.
Editors' note: This is a review of the full version of Inventoria Stock Manager 3.09. The trial version is limited to 14 days.

"The WORST program EVER!"
Version: Inventoria Stock Manager 3.33
Pros
Initially I thought it was simple to use so after uploading my inventory files and spending countless hours working with it I changed my mind
Cons
Do not use this product unless you want INCORRECT reports and trouble figuring out if the data is accurate. If you are trying to find out what products a customer bought, forget about it, you wont find it with this product. I could go on and on but I'm tired of talking about it...this product stinks!
Summary
I can not recommend this product to anyone! Beware...it is not worth the cost!

"program does not work properly tec service sucks"
Version: Inventoria Stock Manager 3.33
Pros
looks like it would be good if it worked
Cons
doesn't work properly. I bought Inventoria and Express invoice to work together. Big mistake Express invoice won't take inventory out of Inventoria like it should when I contacted tec support it took 3 days for them to answer. They asked what version I had (I had already told them) when I answered them it took them 3 more days to answer me this is their answer "You got the correct version but Im unsure why it does not work for you. I will transfer this ticket to our account department to process your refund." I still have not received a refund. Now I have to deal with the credit card I used to try and get reinbursed.
Summary
Don't buy this program

"HORRIBLE Program - DO NOT PURCHASE"
Version: Inventoria Stock Manager 3.33
Pros
At first view it seems relatively simple to use for the average layman. But don't be fooled. It is only the interface that looks easy.
Cons
However if you need to have more then 1 person using it, you then purchase the software for mulit users. Which we did. We however did not buy a support contract, which I thought was a very high price for what we we would receive. If you don't have a support agreement. They take days to get back to you, there is no phone number I can find to call.I tried backing up the data I already entered and it looks to back up but then when you try to restore the backup -it does not back up. Also all reports are in a pdf format so when you convert it to a spreadsheet, it groups all material into 1 line. I could never get the multi user to work, because tech support only gives one line answers and then does not respond back when you have more questions. You have to start the process all over again. The refund policy is very tricky. It says the only way you will get a refund is if tech support can not get the program to work after 14 days. Nothing but problems, I would never recommend this to anyone!
Summary
the technical support is very limited, slow response and wants basically $15 per email for support, online support has 1 line answers, the forum I see other people asking the same questions but no one answers them back.
DO NOT BUY They won't answer or give the money back. Terrible program would not recommend
