## Reviews

### "Excellent value" — 5.0/5

> **Russell** | *August 27, 2025* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer support - tech support is highly responsive to any issues we have since our migration to SaaS.  They let me know what the issues are.  Even if it's on their end.  Not all companies do that.
> 
> **Cons**: Like most cloud apps, you are dependent on your Internet connection.  Not a lot any app provider can do about that.
> 
> Our experience has been excellent.  Sometimes dealing with software vendors is almost like dealing with used car dealers.  We got none of that with CoreIMS.  The sales team and programmers were upfront with pricing and hours on their estimates of customizations that were required to meet our needs.

### "Great System for Small to Medium Sized Operations" — 5.0/5

> **Andrew** | *August 21, 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The structure and useability of the interface makes CoreIMS an approachable and robust option for our inventory management. Accessing and adjusting parameters is both comprehensive and intuitive, making it easy to categorize and prioritize stocks and orders efficiently. The help section and supporting documents are a useful resource, and the mobile app integration has proven to be very convenient when moving around the facility.
> 
> **Cons**: The learning curve is considerable but not overwhelming by any means, and integration with a handheld scanner is occasionally challenging. All issues have been resolved promptly by the CoreIMS support team, which makes a big difference when attempting to use a function for the first time.
> 
> CoreIMS has proven to be a effective solution for our inventory management system. While it is not the easiest program to initially familiarize with, it quickly becomes more capable and efficient as the user learns how to utilize all the software’s features.

### "Core ISM Review" — 5.0/5

> **Douglas** | *February 18, 2026* | Warehousing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The CoreIMS feature of core is that it was custom built for our warehouse system. &#10;The Customer support is also very good and responsive.&#10;The end product is easy for our forklift drivers and warehouse men to use.
> 
> **Cons**: I probably disliked troubleshooting issues the most but on the same token once solved they were most rewarding
> 
> Very Good - During and after the sale\!\!\! Working with \[sensitive content hidden\] and the programming crew was easy. We have been a customer since 2011.

### "Core IMS Warehouse Management System" — 3.0/5

> **Seth** | *April 4, 2017*
> 
> Core is a decent entry level WMS, but lacks a lot of key features and frequently has technical issues.  Decent value for the price for a small warehouse.

-----

### "Upgrade Core" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *August 25, 2025* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was a new version of Core for us, so the transition was smoother than going to a completely new system.
> 
> **Cons**: The newer version has some added steps compared to the older version. It's harder to navigate. More chance of missing something.
> 
> The IT staff was a tremendous help during the transition. Very patient and always available to answer numerous questions..
