Bee Low Stock Alert & Forecast

Simple to use and great customer support.

A useful and easy-to-use app. I recommend it.

Very useful. Quick to set up. Accurate data. Fast, responsive support.

I am still in the beginning stages of trying out the app. So far, I believe it is what we are looking for. Fairly simple to set up and customer support is easily available via chat.

I've had this app on my store for a while and as a micro-batch skincare brand with quite a few handmade products, I find this app really helpful for monitoring and keeping on top of my stock levels as it alerts me when I need to make more (you can set the stock thresholds to suit your needs). My tech manager set this up for me but I recently had to update it to adjust the products included - I didn't find this process immediately intuitive (as I'm a technophobe) but the support team was very responsive and helped me figure it out very quickly! Highly recommend :)

App does not allow us to do export of our data that we need to apply to our other store. Support is not able or willing to help us do this export and import for us, therefore we need to do everything manually. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry for the frustration and extra manual work this caused. Unfortunately, Shopify uses different variant IDs for each store, and because our app depends on those IDs, settings cannot be transferred automatically between stores. We understand how disappointing this was, especially when you were hoping for a simpler solution. If there had been a reliable way for us to do this for you, we would have gladly helped. We truly appreciate that you used our app for a long time, and we’re sorry we could not provide the outcome you needed in this case.

GREAT APP!

The app is so helpful in keeping track of my inventory remotely. It ensures that I don't get caught off guard and I can set custom alerts that give me exactly the information I need. Super easy and I don't know how I lived without it. Great customer support as well~

Fast friendly help resolved my questions right away.

This app is extremely helpful! It notifies me right away when stock is low, and I love how easy it is to update products directly from the email link. Very efficient and user-friendly. Highly recommend.

Easy app to use and very helpful with the notifications that we receive by email about our stock. Also their support is quick and helpful!

Fast return and very quickly

Great app! We are using it for 5 years. New forecast feature was a great addition.

Kubra was 10/10

wij hebben de app verwijderd maar u heeft toch een jaarbijdrage via shopify aangerekend - graag willen wij dit bedrag terug - wij hebben de app 2 dagen getest en ondervonden problemen met het EURO teken Hello, Could you ping us via live chat so that we can figure it out quickly. Best

Love this app. It made ordering in new stock a breeze, something I can do every morning before my day starts.

Fantastic app. We use it for our everyday stock management and find it super useful!

* In summary, I recommend Bee Low Stock Alert & Forecast (Bee LSA) for small stores (like us), and the developer is quite helpful and pleasant. I cannot comment on how this app might work for larger stores, only because that is not my experience. * I teetered between giving 4 or 5 stars for the review. In the end, Merchbees' excellent customer service won me over for giving 5 stars. * Our store sells a combination of new and used products. We usually have 2000-3000 active SKUs. We need alerts for the new products in our store, and for some of the used products we restock. As I write this, we have 19 Bee LSA emailed alerts set up. * I don't have experience with other Low Stock Alert apps, so this is my experience using this one app. * How we use Bee Low Stock Alert: * We use Bee LSA in a simple way for our store. I'll describe how we use it here in case it helps someone else. This may be TMI! * Product Tags: * I have added a product tag for each supplier we use to the products we buy from them. These product tags are all formatted, "Supplier - _____". I created an LSA for each supplier by filtering to include only the product tag, "Supplier - ____" * Collection Filter Alternative. We have a few LSAs that include products in a certain collection instead of including by a product tag. For example, we have a collection for used products we restock. These have no supplier to reorder from. We restock only as we are able to. We have an LSA set up for this collection. * Discontinued. If a product is no longer available or is only special order, then we add a product tag, "No Low Stock Alert." Every LSA I have created is also filtered to exclude products with this product tag. * Using these product tags makes it easy for on-site staff (who order products) to apply product tags to include or exclude products from the emailed LSA reports. * For most suppliers, I have created a weekly report for them. Some suppliers, I created a monthly report for. We have a few I created an "on-demand" report for. * Supplier Metafield Added. * Because this process works along with this app, I will also add that I created a product metafield called "Supplier Info." (Settings > Custom data > Products) It is a multi-line text field we use to capture the supplier name, product number used for reordering, min order qty of a product, etc. For our purposes, the Vendor field is used for the product "brand." Supplier is who we order the products from, which may include a long list of vendors or brands. When a product shows up on a Bee LSA email for a particular supplier, we write the re-order qty on the printed email. We can then go down the list to look up each product and look at the "Supplier Info" field to have what we need to re-order. * Use Purchase Orders. * We create a Shopify Purchase Order for each supplier order. If a product is listed on a PO showing it has been reordered, this affects the Shopify inventory quantity. The Bee LSA emailed report has columns for "inventory quantity" and "incoming inventory." Using POs can keep you from reordering the same product more often then you should. * Challenges. * The menus and interface are ok, but I don't always find the menus and User Interface intuitive to me. Things are in unexpected places or fields are in unexpected orders. I have to look around and try things out a little more than expected. * For example, as of right now: 1. I expect product "sort type" to be right after the "filter and input thresholds." What do you want and how do you want it organized? But sort type is at the end of the "Notification" tab. This does not make logical sense to me. 2. I have "sort type" set for "Product title A-Z." "Inventory Quantity" sort type is another option that might be helpful to others? It is not what I need. I *wish* I could sort by SKU number, but that is not a sort type option. 3. Even better would be the ability to sort by more than 1 field. I'd select 1st by collection, then 2nd by either SKU number or Product Name * (However, If I can't figure something out, I contact the developer. There is a chat feature in the app. Developer is always helpful either by chat or email.) * I have been printing emailed reports (vs staff printing onsite) because they print a lot nicer from my Gmail account than from an email in MS Outlook. Outlook email prints them really weird and nearly unusable. Gmail looks great. We checked all the Outlook print settings, and could not figure out how to make these emails print better. All other Outlook emails print fine. * Positive Upsides. * I appreciate that I can add a default minimum and default maximum inventory quantity for each LSA report to trigger when products will be included on the report. I can also set a different value on each product if I need a higher or lower number for certain products. This feature works great. * Merchbees developer is very responsive and helpful. This is absolutely a HUGE plus!! Today, Kübra was very helpful and pleasant when we online chatted. I think there is a time difference and was pleasantly surprised at the quick chat response. I expected an email back. * Always when I have stumbled or had questions when setting up alerts, the developer has been quick to respond, pleasant, and helpful. I really appreciate this. I have provided a fair amount of feedback in the past when I'm in the middle of things, because I know it can be helpful. Merchbees has asked clarifying questions and implemented some of my suggestions. Yay! * Once our LSA emailed reports were set up and automated as described above, they have worked well consistently. I generally only think about them when I have to set up a new alert for a new supplier, or something has changed with our products. * Merchbees is great to work with!

The app is easy to use, very clear and does exactly what it is supposed to do. With the help of the app, you can easily get a great overview of the products that are in danger of being sold out. The support responds very quickly, is friendly and implements solutions very quickly.

Longtime Low Stock Alert & Forecasting user here. The app keeps getting better with more robust filtering for Low Inventory Alerts. The app is very intuitive and easy-to-use. Support, though rarely required, it outstanding. Mete is incredibly responsive. This is one of the best Shopify apps we have found. If you are looking to automate managing your inventory levels and restocking, be sure to check this app out

Recommended. Really covers all needs within the product stock alerts. Fast and efficient support.

I used this app during our busy season of manufacturing for Q4 to make sure we were keeping up with our orders. This app produced a handy weekly list of items that were low in stock. This weekly report also took into account what wholesale orders we had outstanding. It was vital in prioritizing our production efficiently. I'll be using this app again as we ramp up this spring!

Installed and cofigured the app. Really useful as I can set different threshold quantities for different products, and email alerts work perfectly. Really helps me manage stock inventory.

great app

The free plan will email notifications to a single address once your items go below the threshold you set, which is a very useful offering for a free app. I see no issue paying for more controls once our needs evolve. Great app.

Great app, works brilliantly and love the new design too. Support very fast when needed.

Very helpful and easy to use. Good price point for value.

I've been using this app for a few years now and rely on it for inventory numbers. Saves time and money! While not 100% accurate 100% of the time, it still is a winner!

Very helpful with ordering product

Fantastic support - we have a lot of apps on our store and support is always an issue but excellebnt all round here

Does everything that we need and it's super simple to set up. They've clearly thought through the requirements that most businesses would have and have covered all of them. Great app for low stock alerts even if you have 1000's of products.

Great app that really covers all needs within stock alerts. Helpful support as well.

Great app! Solid Customer service experience, super easy to use and set-up Thanks!

Technical support ( tech person named Mete) was quick, very helpful, clear and direct to the point . He resolved my issue and answered all my questions and beyond. Thank you!

Great app, works well.

This has been an essential app regarding history data analysis! Very user-friendly and easy to navigate. Help is always available and they are very attentive. Thank you!

Geweldige dienst en kan aanbevelen voor alle ondernemers.

This app works perfectly and the support is great.

Great app, simple and user friendly. I would absolutely recommend it.

Great app and customer service. Highly recommended!

Zuverlässiger Alarm, einfache Einrichtung.

Great app! I appreciate receiving the weekly emails that let me know which products are low in stock so I can plan accordingly.

Amazing product and customer service! thank you

They were a super helpful and very quick to respond to my request. They listen the issue and solved it for me very quickly! I highly recommend them.

So far so good! Very helpful to get updates in my inbox weekly about low stock.

Merchbees helps our stock forecasting how much of our different SKU's, that needs to be packed and shipped to the fulfillment center. I highly recommend this app. The support is awesome as well :)

This is a must have app! Let's be honest .. It's painful keeping tabs on your stock in the same or different locations and figuring out when you need to place another order to make sure that you don't run out. Well, this app solves it in a few clicks. It will give you daily stock alerts, low stock alerts, stock forecasts and more. It's definitely worth it. Do yourself a favour and get this app. Oh .. and the support is brilliant !

Great app, support is just amazing. This app helped us organize our inventory......................

This app has saved my day and the days moving forward, we have been doing inventory management with excel with headaches and looked into complicated inventory solutions that would cost us over $1000/mth. Support was instant and they helped me get setup right away. Highly recommended.

Fantastic support, easy to set up, full of features and friendly pricing. A no-doubt app if you want to monitor everything online

This app is great when you want a simple option to have a check on the inventory levels of a store. With huge number of products in the store, its not possible to keep track about out of stock items. This app makes it so easy to manage that by sending you an email with list of all such products so that you do not have to manually check it for all, helping you avoid losing customers unawares. Great App! I would also like to thank the support team. Very quick and helpful.

Quick response and very helpful answer from Kübra. Thank you! I am looking forward to using this app.

Great product so far and the team is quick to respond whenever we need them - recommend the app!

The experience using the app is Amazing. we can now put threshold and inventory incoming to all our products. we can also export it smoothly. Support is also superb, You can always set a meeting with them. Good job Merchbees!

Excellent app which helps me save time monitoring stock and reorder, and stellar support team that was very helpful. Can definitely recommend this app to anyone!

Great support, and a really handy app!! My web designer set it all up for me, then when I wanted to alter something I had no idea where to begin. MerchBees support was great, and helped me make my changes in a few minutes

So far So good - I had a problem and it was immediately sorted out - I did not understand something on the reporting and once explained everyhting seems to work fine

The app works very well. Love the customization. I would recommend this app.

Great app, very useful for inventory keeping. I had an issue with SMTP and Mete helped me with it really quickly.

5 out of 5, so far a great app! Once it tracks incoming inventory with the low stock alert calculation this will be perfect!

Great and easy to use app with various settings/options - and if possible, even more great support team! Some minor further development still needed for the 'Forecast and Stock Analysis' -reports. 5 stars and 9/10 points! Thank you guys!

It's really easy to use and a life saver especially if you have a huge inventory. Also the support team is awesome!

Really useful. It flags lows stock items per my criteria. Helps me keep track of what items I need to manufacture again.

The very best you will find that supports multiple physical location at a fraction of the cost of all the other apps with multiple location.

It's a pretty good app. It works exactly the way you expect it to work and it is super easy to set up with tons of customization options to meet your needs. The automatic email feature is amazing although it's unfortunate that the email cannot include a PDF and only a CSV file :( Overall 10/10

OTTIMA APPLICAZIONE DAVVERO IN GAMBA, CONSIGLIATISSIMO A TUTTI, BRAVISSIMI..SONO MOLTO VELOCI E TOP! DAVVERO UNA APP DA INSERIRE, COMPLIMENTI!!!!

Nice simple app, and great support (thanks Mete!). It's a lifesaver when moving stock from one location to another :)

Very useful app for us. Easy to handle and many ways to adjust to our needs. Important for us is the possibility to trigger the out-of-stock mails as well as the soon-out-of-stock mails with different conditions for the different categories. We recommend!

Excellent support so far. Have active development list you can add to for additional requirements/customisations.

Very good App, helps me maintain correct stock levels with ease. Instant stock alerts, CSV file and reporting on the App dashboard all works in co ordination to manage inventory effectively.

I can not recommend this app highly enough, it simply ticked the box we needed for our mass stock, and a simple alert was born for all of them. The support team is another element too! Some of the best, prompt and live support I have ever encountered.

Finally!! An easy to use app that can filter at the variant level and provide suggested numbers for restocking that can be individually adjusted and updated, AND also sends a csv for import into our reordering and inventory transfer platform. Thank you thank you thank you

Great customer service. Very happy with it so far. Great customer service. Very happy with it so far

Insalled, set up and tested a dozen notifications in less than 10 mins and had a question that needed support which was also answered in that time too! Very impressive and exactly what I need to make it easier to keep tabs on inventory and ordering now the global supply chain is more stretched than ever. Highly recommended.

Very easy to give a quick 5 stars to this app. Installed, and set up an alert in 15 mins. Got in touch with support with a question. Was answered immediately who then set up a useful short call to understand our user case better. I then installed their inventory value apply which gave me an immediate snapshot into my inventory. Excellent tools. Highly recommened.

Great app, it had exactly all the functionality I was looking for. Besides that, the customer support is amazing. My problem was solved within minutes. Best app for stock alerts available.

This app has saved me so much time. then I added another MerchBees app and was confused. the team jumped on a screenshare call with me and guided me through the process. Amazing Products with an Amazing support staff! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Thanks for your wonderful work ! This app is so good ! No problem now with the stock in our differents buisiness.

This app is fantastic for what we need! Support very helpful and friendly. I'm very happy with this app!

This app is the best!!!!! We have been dealing with low stock / out of stock issues for years! Now with Merchbees I get notifications separately for every time an item is sold out. Also, it has different filters that you can use to modify your notifications, So I will say Merchbees you guys killed it!!! Thank youuuuu

I am using the app to see what product variants are low in stock and to receive an email alert notifying me when they are low. I had a question about why a some sku's were not showing the inventory quantity currently and used the chat box and in less then 1 min they had cleared up my concerns. Quick and responsive, easy to work with. Love this app!

We found the app to be very useful in keeping up with our inventory levels well before running out of stock. The interface is very easy to use.

I am using this app for the last 2 years which allow me to control my Inventory. Absolutely a must have app when running low on inventory. I can now post low number of units to sell (customer buy more when they see that only a few left) and I know with this app it will always remind me to add more units one I have 1 left. Work great on High ticket price products. Canada-Greenhouse-Kits.ca Thanks

This app is SO fast and easy to set up with advanced triggers. I have it set up to send an instant email when any variant is sold out ... excluding discontinued items. Having the product tag exclusion is so helpful, because then my email/inbox won't get cluttered with a bunch of emails for products we aren't planning to restock. (Plus, my production manager often does not know what styles are discontinued, so now he isn't getting a bunch of irrelevant emails) Thank you!!

Our store is not connected tot he warehouse. I use this app to ensure I am on top of inventory levels, it has prevented us from selling out of stock items.

Is the perfect solution for our store and customer service is amazing! It is easy to use and customizable.

We use this app to help us keep up with demand for our website, we very much enjoy the ease and flexibility this app provides us with.

This app is a must for monitoring stock levels, the app does exactly what you need and topped off with their amazingly quick customer support its a no brainer. 5 Star Quality.

とても使いやすいです。他にも似たようなアプリはいくつかありますが、在庫が減ったら即時通知を出せるアプリとしては一番良いアプリだと思います。料金プランは他のアプリと似ているので、このアプリに大きな問題がない限りこのアプリを使い続けます。

Excellent App. This is the second store that I have used it on. Reliably helps us keep a tab on a very large inventory. I especially appreciate the ability to get an email at an inventory number that we choose, whether that is 1, or 2 or whatever. In this store, we have a distributed work force and receiving email notifications in more than one location is also very helpful.

this app is super helpful to keep track of inventory and when to re-order! I can't imagine my shop without it!

Very simple and easy to use and support was fast and helpful when needed. Our replenishment process has become quite easier and more accurate.

We have a lot of sku's and Merchbees Low Stock Alert really helps in giving a heads up when stock is low. I like how we can adjust the alerts based on the qty we'd like to get notified for.

This App is great for anybody who wants to keep a track on stock levels. You can set different limits for different products and can choose what days you want to be notified.

Does exactly what I need it to do and when it didn't, support was very helpful in making it do what I wanted. Recommended!

This is a great streamline app that helps us to keep us up to date and alerts us when we hit below a specific level of products. One of the big plusses is that it can be integrated straight into Slack where we get daily notifications straight into our dashboard. Its perfect for our needs. Their customer service is also excellent when ever you need to ask them a question. Thank you Merchbees Low Stock.

Developer tried to help but the app is unable to support large amounts of skus. A+ for the attempt to help though
