Computer Repair Inventory Software

[amktechsolutions]

I've heard alot of good things about RepairShopr, I'm about to get back into the computer repair business this summer so I'm heavily considering it.

Just my 2 cents, since the OP was mentioning "Inventory software" - the inventory aspects of RepairShopr have changed a lot in the last year.

The inventory is now fully serialized for maintain stock products - and you can optionally track "serial numbers" too.

This means - beyond tracking "counts" like QuickBooks or some other basic inventory systems - RepairShopr has a robust inventory system that will track the life of a single instance of a product forever. From the Purchase Order it came in on, the cost, the date, the vendor - that data is stored and a label can be printed from the Purchase Order that carries that data with it.

Once this item is sold, if it ever comes back you can find the invoice - and find the detailed history of that instance.

Lots of shops use this to track bad batches, and to be able to RMA a generic product back to the correct vendor.

Maybe you buy Kingston ram from amazon, and Ingram - and they look identical physically. With the serialized inventory when you do a return/RMA on that line item - it knows which vendor it came from and you can see it easily.

This is the closest thing to an ERP-type inventory system without being in an ERP - quite sure it's the strongest inventory system you can find "in a ticketing system".

I know none of this matters much to many small shops - in my repair shop I never tracked this closely - but it does matter to the hundreds of people that kept giving feedback saying we needed to improve the inventory!

QuickBooks

Although it isnt geared specifically towards computer repair business, Quickbooks Pro has worked well for us. We keep track of inventory, clients, vendors, etc.

For those QuickBooks Online users there is "Delayed Charges". It's not really a work order but can be used as such. Let's you keep track of time, materials, etc. all tied together for future billing.

Looking for computer repair inventory software where I can keep track of work orders/parts etc.

I have already found a couple companies and was wonder what everyone else is using?

I know this is an old thread, but im interested in knowing what software you ended up using. Also, I had the same issue. I like to keep track of everything and just couldn't find an answer. After years of building out an ms access database, worked awesome but the only thing was, it was on my home network and connecting with a VPN just wasn't working well. I tried SugarCRM, SuiteCRM, FusionInvoice, and getting ready to try InvoicePlane. The last two are free and you can self host them. I have to say, FusionInvoice is awesome. Its mostly designed for invoicing but you can add your inventory in the expenses section then bill them to an invoice. Its really pretty minimal but it really works nice, very clean and very customizable....

InvoicePlane

I used that for about 3 years with no issues. Its still accessible today for my "cant get rid of them" residential clients. Though now I use QuickBooks.
