Increff Merchandising Software vs Openship

Increff Merchandising Software is a web-based retail platform for inventory optimization, merchandising and multichannel fulfillment. Its True Demand Forecasting uses self-learning algorithms to account for stockouts, brokenness and liquidation when interpreting demand signals. It forecasts for each store individually, with detail across as many as 17 fashion-attribute levels. The Merchandising Suite covers financial and assortment planning, range architecture, allocation and replenishment, reordering, and markdown optimization.
