Zoho Inventory vs Craftybase
Small-batch DTC manufacturers need inventory software that handles both raw materials and finished goods, without requiring an operations manager to run it.
Zoho Inventory is a capable generic option, but it is built for resellers and retail businesses, not for makers who manufacture their own products. It lacks recipe costing, component-level BOM tracking, and the COGS calculations that small manufacturers need.
Craftybase is purpose-built for small manufacturers. It includes only the features that matter for this workflow: multi-level BOMs, batch manufacturing, lot tracking, and COGS reporting. No steep learning curve, no paying for warehouse management features you will never use.
Craftybase connects to Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Amazon so orders sync automatically and inventory adjusts without manual entry. You get material tracking, COGS per product, purchase order creation, and production scheduling in one place.
For small DTC manufacturers, Craftybase covers the full cycle: raw material purchase to finished product to fulfilled order. Lot and batch tracking, multi-location stock management, and weighted-average COGS calculations are all included on every plan. No add-ons required.
Ambitious small-batch manufacturers scale with Craftybase.
Track every material, every batch, and every order with software built for small manufacturers, not retrofitted from enterprise tools.
