Simpentory vs inFlow Inventory
inFlow is a well-established small-business inventory system that leans toward order management and light manufacturing — barcoding, sales orders, B2B showrooms. It targets the same "we outgrew spreadsheets" buyer Simpentory does, with a broader and correspondingly more complex product.

Which one fits your operation
When Simpentory is the better fit
- You want one price that does not move when you add a person or an item.
- Your stock lives in areas you would name yourself — a walk-in, Truck 3, a back stock room — and you want counts organized that way.
- You want the whole product on day one instead of discovering which tier holds the feature you assumed was included.
When inFlow Inventory is the better fit
- You need barcode scanning with a phone camera as the primary way you count.
- You take sales orders and want inventory, orders, and a B2B customer portal in one system.
- You do light manufacturing or assembly and need bills of materials.
