- Tough to maintain Excel spreadsheet to keep track of inventories.
- Team member changes frequently and takes time to teach newbies.

Tana is born from an university chemistry lab, where 1 team of 50 students located on 3 separate rooms. 
Thousands of chemicals and tons of equipments were consumed every day and night, some chemicals took more than a week to get delivered from supplier, which was a huge pain for managers to get inventories under control. Fighting with Excel spreadsheet wasn't enough for such a case. So we built Tana, an intuitive app for collaborative management.

### 3/5 — Alphabetize

*2019-01-14*

App should auto alphabetize the items as they’re entered, but it doesn’t. 

For this reason alone I will no longer be using the app.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for using Tana! The alphabetical sort feature will be available in future update. Thank you again for your feedback!
