An intuitive and easy-to-use interface that makes life easier

Dealing with a hard-to-use system that offers very little support is a recipe for headaches and a disgruntled team. Luminous is not only easy to use, but we’re also quick to fix any bugs that come up.

A team that knows your journey

Luminous was founded in Utah, USA by ecommerce operators who know the struggles of this market. Our goal is to make the ecommerce journey less painful and more profitable, and we put all of who we are into it. Cin7 is more of a faceless overseas operation. Who would you rather trust?

I'm almost in tears... it's so easy... we used to have 2 different spreadsheets + Cin7 + one other location we manage just to get this same info...

To be honest, I had a great implementaiton experience. The Monday board kept us organized, the daily meetings gave us momentum, the Slack channel was great for communication, and the youtube videos are a helpful reference.

You guys, you're crushing it. You've been awesome to work with. I've never worked with someone as good as you on the software end, and I've implemented lot of softwares for a lot of different companies, It's been my primary job for the last seven years. And you're the best I've worked with.

Suzanne from Bijou Build

I mean, I'm liking everything about the way Luminous— you can tell your developers. I'm very happy with how Luminous is set up and very user friendly. It's very intuitive. It makes sense. And I cannot say the same for most of the other products we've been using lately.

JD from Modica

So one thing, you know, with CIN7, I don’t feel like it was very intuitive… Luminous, unlike other ecommerce ERPs and inventory management systems is so much more intuitive. 
I mean, just, like, really, really easy, which is great. That’s what we’re looking for.
