Beta Program & Free Access

IEMSuite is in active BETA. All features are completely free while we build the best inventory management platform together.

Active Beta

IEMSuite is in public BETA

The system is in active development. We are shipping new features weekly and refining existing ones based on your feedback. In return for your patience and bug reports, every feature is completely free until we graduate to general availability.

What Beta Means for You

"BETA" means the product is real and working, but not yet at the polish level we consider production-ready. You may encounter:

  • Minor UI glitches - layout issues, missing loading states, inconsistent styling
  • Edge-case bugs - unusual workflows may hit unexpected errors
  • Feature gaps - some documented features are still being refined
  • Occasional slow responses - sync jobs and large data queries are still being optimized

What you will NOT encounter:

  • Data loss - your inventory, orders, and production records are safe. We use PostgreSQL with daily backups.
  • Security issues - authentication, multi-tenancy, and data isolation are production-grade.
  • Broken core workflows - the fundamental loops (receive → produce → ship) work reliably.

How to Make the Most of the Beta

1

Set up your real data

Don't test with dummy data. Import your actual products, locations, and suppliers. Real usage surfaces real issues faster.

2

Connect Shopify early

If you use Shopify, connect it in your first session. The Shopify integration is one of the most important systems - more data means more stable sync.

3

Invite your team

Add your warehouse staff, production managers, and QC inspectors. Multi-user workflows reveal issues that solo testing misses.

4

Use it for real operations

The best beta testers are those running real business operations through the system. This is how we find and fix real issues.

5

Report anything that feels wrong

You don't need a reproducible bug. If something feels off, slow, confusing, or broken - tell us. Every report improves the product.

Reporting Bugs & Feedback

Three ways to reach us:

Bug Reports

Use the feedback button in the app, or email us at [email protected]. Include what you were doing, what you expected, and what happened instead.

Feature Requests

Email us at [email protected]. Tell us what workflow is missing and why it matters to your business. We prioritize features by real-world impact.

General Feedback

Use the Contact page at iemsuite.com/contact. We read every message and respond within 24 hours on business days.

What Happens When Beta Ends

When we graduate from BETA to general availability, billing will be introduced. Here is exactly what that transition looks like:

Beta → GA Transition Timeline

Announcement

You receive an email announcing the transition and plan pricing, well before anything changes.

Heads-up period

Prices become visible on iemsuite.com and a banner reminds you to review plans. Billing is still off - nothing is charged.

Transition day

Billing becomes active. You select a plan and enter payment details. No data is lost regardless of plan choice.

Your data is safe regardless of plan selection. Even if you downgrade to a lower plan at GA, all your historical records (transactions, orders, QC inspections) are preserved. Only the ability to create new records in locked-feature modules changes.

Stay Informed

To receive beta updates, transition notices, and new feature announcements:

  • Make sure your account email is current (Settings → Profile)
  • Check iemsuite.com/blog for weekly update posts
  • Follow @iemsuite on social media for real-time announcements
The beta period has no fixed end date. We will announce the transition to GA at least 30 days in advance. There is no rush - enjoy the free access.
