Zoho Inventory vs Craftybase

Why choose Craftybase over Zoho Inventory inventory software?

When it comes to inventory management software, small-but-ambitious DTC manufacturers need a solution that can be utilized both now and in the future.

While Zoho Inventory inventory software is a great generic option, it's not designed with the specific challenges of small DTC sellers in mind - and that's why Craftybase is such an attractive alternative to Zoho Inventory.

Craftybase has honed the set of features small manufacturers need to achieve scale - and because you are getting a solution that is tailored to your specific needs, you don’t need to pay for features you won't use. On the other hand, Zoho Inventory inventory software can be overwhelming for small DTC manufacturers, as it includes many features and functions that aren't necessarily relevant to their business. This can lead to a steep learning curve, which can be fine for larger enterprises but a costly time-sink for small businesses. As Craftybase has been specifically designed with small-but-ambitious manufacturers in mind. It offers a more streamlined interface and includes only the features that are most essential for small manufacturers - making onboarding and staff training a relative walk in the park.

Craftybase offers a range of features to help you manage your inventory and production scheduling effectively, including inventory tracking and forecasting, cost and profit analysis, automated purchase order creation and budgeting tools.

Overall, Craftybase is a much better alternative to Zoho Inventory inventory software for small DTC manufacturers. It provides comprehensive features, real-time insights, multiple location management, production scheduling, lot and batch tracking, and integrations with major ecommerce platforms - all of which are essential for managing an efficient supply chain from raw material to sale.

Ambitious small-batch manufacturers scale with Craftybase.

Streamline your end-to-end manufacturing process and gain real-time visibility into your inventory with our powerful alternative to Zoho Inventory.
