What is Cin7?
Cin7 is cloud-based inventory management software designed for product-based businesses. It creates a central place to manage stock, orders, suppliers, warehouses, and sales channels, helping everyone work from the same accurate information.
Instead of updating several systems by hand, your team can connect key parts of the operation and automate routine processes. Cin7 supports integrations with hundreds of platforms, including popular ecommerce, marketplace, accounting, shipping, and third-party logistics tools. That means orders and stock movements can flow through the business with less duplication and less manual re-entry.
Why choose Cin7?
See your stock in real time
Get a clearer view of stock across locations and sales channels. With up-to-date information in one place, you can spot shortages sooner, avoid unnecessary overstocking and give customers more reliable information about availability.
Bring every sales channel together
Manage orders from ecommerce, marketplaces, retail, and wholesale channels without losing sight of the bigger picture. Cin7 keeps stock information connected as orders arrive, helping you deliver a consistent experience wherever your customers buy from you.
Cut down on manual admin
Automation can take care of repetitive tasks such as updating stock levels, routing orders and triggering reordering processes. Your team spends less time copying data between systems and more time focusing on customers, growth, and the work that needs a human touch.
Make smarter purchasing decisions
Use sales history, stock data and demand insights to plan purchasing with more confidence. Better visibility helps you decide what to order, when to order it, and where stock needs to be, helping you keep the right stock on hand and respond faster when demand changes.
