Maurice - Assistant Manager at Flyjin

Maurice, Assistant Manager @ Flyjin

“Before using WISK, we had hesitations due to past unsuccessful experiences with other systems. We often reverted to pen and paper, which required transferring data to Excel, making the process very time-consuming. We started scanning everything, doing the inventory, it went super well, so I was very pleasantly surprised.”

Massimo - General Manager at Lucille's

Massimo, General Manager @ Lucille’s

“It took a lot less time to get everyone on board. They were all open for it because it's an app. They could use their phone. You know, at the touch of our phones, we have everything available. We just scan the item, we go through it all in a sequence, so it's very well organized, everything's well counted, and I think it just really facilitates the time efficiency of everything.”

Loyd - Owner at L'infame Tittle Tattle and La Gargamelle in Montreal

Loyd, Owner @ L’infâme Tittle Tattle and La Gargamelle in Montreal

Before WISK, honestly, inventory was kind of a drag. We had this huge Excel sheet, we have over a hundred products in here, so it's kind of hard to just do inventories. It used to take us about one or two hours every week. Twice a week actually, it was not very accurate with our Excel sheet, but now it takes us like 20 minutes and we're done. And I was kind of surprised it was so user-friendly.
