SnapStock vs a Spreadsheet for Inventory
A spreadsheet can hold inventory, but every count means typing rows by hand. SnapStock scans items directly into counts on your phone, then you can export when you need a spreadsheet view.
Comparison table
| Factor | SnapStock | a Spreadsheet |
|---|---|---|
| Data entry | Scan | Type each row |
| Mobile counts | Yes | Awkward on phone |
| Speed | Fast | Slow |
| Errors | Fewer | Typos common |
| Export to spreadsheet | Yes | Already there |
Where SnapStock wins
Scanning into the app is far faster than typing spreadsheet rows during a stocktake, and you can still export to a spreadsheet afterward for analysis.
When a Spreadsheet still makes sense
A spreadsheet is great for analysis, formulas, and sharing. Use SnapStock to capture counts quickly, then export to the spreadsheet for the number-crunching.
