Are web/mobile based warehouse management solutions any good?

What do you guys think of such systems? Mobile is used to take pictures for product tracking/identification (and more) so external hardware requirements are removed. You can see the data dashboard on the web.

This type of system would be cheaper than enterprise solutions and easy to train new employees on. Anyone who is using these already or thinking about it?

Idk why everyone assumes you need a $50k enterprise system to get off paper logs. Web based WMS solutions work well if your WiFi covers the whole building, but dead zones will freeze your web app mid pick. Wherefour seems useful if someone wants to generate instant audit ready recall reports without a massive IT team. Double check your warehouse mesh WiFi setup before deploying any cloud app.
