It's fairly robust especially when you consider it's free. Nice looking interface and the beverage database is pretty deep. My only complaint is when entering inventory on my phone the app tends to crash frequently and may not have recorded the last few entries so I've been writing it down then entering it on my laptop. Once that's addressed I really can't imagine why you would use any other inventory that you have a monthly subscription for. Nice job guys!

Thank you for the review. We released a new app update today that should fix the crashing you experienced and also greatly improves the interface for entering in inventory. Please give the update a try when you get a chance and let us know any feedback!

I have found a problem which is now a deal breaker for me. I completed my second full inventory, but the "total" for some of the items are way off. I double checked my entries and they are accurate, but the sum of the stocks of the same items in different locations arent correct. On top of that, my inventory value is way off as well. It shows me the total of each location's value with the sum at the bottom, but the sum is more than double what should be correct, and I can't figure out why.

Wonderful user friendly interface. Only one problem, despite the online version works perfectly, on the app version every time we type in the search bar looking for an item the app crashes. Do you guys know what might be the issue? Edit: Fixed in less than 24h, these guys are great!

Thank you for the review, Alessio. This problem has been fixed. If you close the app on your phone and re-open the app, it should not crash when searching. If you ever run into any issues, please don't hesitate to email us at support@getbackbar.com.
