About Us

The vision of a smooth running business is what unites the Finale Inventory team.  Coming from a background of well-funded Silicon Valley companies, the founders of Finale Inventory wanted to follow a different path: start small.

The founders started working hands on with small and medium sized businesses to understand their inventory management needs, and to write an inventory management solution that could be tailored to solving their problems.  The first customers were fireworks companies. Why? Because when dealing with explosives you can be put in jail if your inventory records are off. So accurate inventory management is really important.

To a degree, inventory management needs are the same for broad categories of companies, and the body of knowledge about inventory management as a business function is well understood.  But there are nuances. When it comes time to pick or receive orders, do stock takes, deal with kits, handle lot IDs, serial numbers, multiple shipments, returns, barcodes and the litany of fine grained issues, the nitty gritty details really matter, and they are not the same across all companies.

That’s the challenge.  How do you build a SaaS inventory management solution that makes warehousing, purchasing and selling run smoothly for all the nitty gritty details even though those details are different for different companies?  Having grown up from working hands on with small and medium sized companies, to now working with Fortune 500 companies and e-commerce companies shipping a million orders in a month, the Finale team has built a SaaS inventory management system that is precisely adaptable to the finest detail.  Coupled with offering free, world class on-boarding, training and support, the solution helps companies get ever closer to the vision of a smooth running business.
