What Shopify merchants say

Reviews from the Shopify App Store, quoted as written.

★★★★★

We have no prior knowledge and the app makes its extremely easy to navigate the complex world of EANS, GTINS etc. Support is also 5 star.

I needed urgently to create GTIN code to our older stock (600 SKU), which would else be a nightmare, since GS1 has changed its layout of the bulk upload files. This App saved me 2 days of work! So I do recommend it

Who we are

Brian McKinley founded Left Foot Software in 2008 to give small and mid-size footwear and accessory companies the same operational clarity larger brands have, without the cost and complexity of traditional ERP.

Our team has helped brands grow from first samples to established names in department stores and boutiques.

Today we work with brands, 3PLs and Shopify merchants. We act as the glue between your operations and the industry-standard tools you already use.

  • Decades of collective experience in footwear and apparel operations
  • Pricing that scales with growing brands, not enterprise ERP budgets
  • Inventory and production tracking on the devices you already use
  • Financial reporting integrated with QuickBooks
  • EDI, ecommerce, POS and 3PL connections in one platform
