How it sells itself

Countwise takes your stocktakes from the shelf to Shopify. Start a count for a location, of every product or one vendor, type or tag, and scan: a USB or Bluetooth scanner, the Shopify app's camera, or typed SKUs. Several people count at once and every scan is saved as it happens. See what is over and under, then apply it to your inventory in one go.

Selling electronics, tools or equipment means customers ask about warranties, returns and recalls by serial number. Serialwise records the serial of every unit: scan or type it when you pack the order, or fill it from serials received into stock. Each serial is saved on the Shopify order, ready for packing slips. Search any serial to see its order, sale date and warranty end.

Key points
  • Scan with a USB or Bluetooth scanner, your phone's camera, or by SKU
  • Several people count at once; every scan is saved and can be undone
  • Count a whole location or one vendor, product type or tag
  • See what is over and under before anything changes
  • Scan, type or fill a serial for every unit when you pack an order
  • Serials saved on the Shopify order and printable on packing slips
  • Serial lookup with order, sale date and warranty end date
  • Receive serials into stock; new deliveries update Shopify stock

How Shoplist compares apps

Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
