> **Logan** | *14 July 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I loved that it has a option for free for us small business owners trying to get started. Not many companies do that in this kind of business. It was extremely simple to setup
> 
> **Cons**: I honestly cannot seem to think of one thing negative that i experienced during my time while using it to count my stock
> 
> Super simple to setup for someone who has no knowledge on these kind of apps. When it says free trial there was no where for me to even have to put card info in.

> **Kim** | *14 May 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The personal aspect of the customer support\!  No automated system, you actually get to speak to someone, and those issues are addressed immediately.  This product has been a huge asset to our e-commerce businesses, and our multiple supporting warehouses.  THANK YOU\!
> 
> **Cons**: We have had a synce issue with real time counts on our spreadsheet.   We still have to manually export the data for accuracy, but once it is manually exported, it is accurate.
> 
> NO COMPLAINTS\!  We have actually used them for other projects in our business.  Great group.

### "Loving the little assistant I have" — 5.0/5

> **Kanika** | *02 December 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is what GearChain offers me: a crystal, clear view into my supply chain. How I feel is that there is a personal assistant tracking every step of my products' journeys. No need to wonder where things got stuck or when they would arrive. Also, this whole blockchain thing makes me so sure about my data being secure and sound, like a digital fortress protecting my interior and home decor business.
> 
> **Cons**: GearChain's blockchain tech can sometimes feel a bit complex, like trying to understand a new language. But, once you get the hang of it, it's incredibly powerful. It's like learning a secret code that gives you a competitive edge.
