For a simple and efficient inventory process, we do work without external service providers and rely on the full power of seventhings.

We provide you with a large selection of possible inventory labels and the matching scanners. We advise you and decide together whether simple PET labels are sufficient or whether you want to use the full power of innovation with smart RFID labels.

Reason 4 - A solution that can be exactly what you need it to be

The inventory manager from seventhings adapts to your individual needs. The software is freely configurable and you can easily define fields, columns and much more yourself.

Reason 5 - Manage your inventories in a resource-efficient and ESG-compliant way thanks to sustainable inventory management

Thanks to our new product innovation, the Circularity Hub, you can now create even more environmental value with your digital inventory management.
Easily increase your company's resource efficiency and ESG compliance by giving your inventory a second life when you no longer need it.

Sell inventory to employees, donate it to charities and organisations, or give damaged items to refurbishers who can return them to the cycle. 
This saves you money and reduces CO₂ emissions. You meet the current challenges posed by climate change and the associated scarcity of resources, and comply with ESG policy guidelines.

With our API, your team can carry out an efficient and reliable inventory. Link existing software in the company with the seventhings inventory manager or use our ready-made interfaces to connect common systems such as SAP, DATEV, Oracle, Infor, Microsoft, Excel and many more. This way, your team can carry out an efficient and reliable inventory without much effort.
