Customer Testimonials

• We are amazed at the efficiencies that we
  continue to realize by having (Pinpoint).
• The ROI has been huge. After an initial
  learning curve we have been able to double and
  triple our throughput through the DC while
  reducing our headcount. It is truly amazing to
  see this in action.
• Additionally our inventory control and accuracy
  went from 20 errors without Pinpoint to less
  than 1 percent with Pinpoint. And with the use of
  cycle counting we were able to eliminate the need
  for a full inventory count that required some
  loss of business and not to mention the lack of
  confidence with the count process.
• Overall a super win win all the way, maximized
  efficiency, increased throughput, inventory
  accuracy continue to break productivity records
  every day
