for the small to medium warehouse
The Benefits...

SageData is based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada


As small businesses grow to become medium businesses, the stockroom becomes a small warehouse, and the need for a system to track receipts, put-away, pick and ship becomes apparant. Whippet is a WMS (Warehouse Management System) that can fit for a smaller warehouse, and grow with the business to manage larger operations.

Although Whippet WMS fits well with smaller operations, it brings the benefits of the power and technology of larger system, to enable operations to be conducted easily, quickly, and accurately.
