Which one is for you

Pick Webgility if

  • Fits if you sell online and keep your books in QuickBooks or Xero
  • Works for sellers who want orders and payouts posted without retyping

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if you want a stand-alone stock system: it works through your accounting file
  • Tight if you run 3 or more channels: Pro and Advanced allow 2, Complete allows 3
  • Pricey if you grow past your order limit: $10 a month per extra 500 orders
  • Watch out: Enterprise and Intuit tabs show higher prices, such as $199 for 1,000 orders

Pick Zoho Inventory if

  • Fits if you sell on Amazon, eBay, Etsy or Shopify and want stock kept in sync
  • Works for businesses already on Zoho Books or Zoho CRM

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you need barcodes or stock counts, which start on Premium at $79 a month
  • Not for you if you make products from raw materials, as there are composite items but no production planning
  • Skip it if you run several Shopify stores and want Standard's price, as it connects just one
  • Tight if you stay free, as it stops at 50 orders a month, 1 user and 1 location
  • Pricey if you grow past a plan, as each extra user or 500 orders is $7.50 a month and each location $10

How we grade them

2.0GPAWebgilityFair3.4GPAZoho InventoryVery good
Value for money
C$69 a month billed annually for 300 orders, between the category's cheaper quarter and its $135 middle.
AStandard covers a shop plus an online store at $29 a month billed yearly ($39 monthly): 500 orders a month, 3 users, 2 locations and 1 Shopify store. That's well under what this category usually charges, though barcodes and stock counts need Premium at $79.
Free plan and trial
DA "Try for free" button is shown, but the trial's length and terms are not stated on the pages read.
CFree for 50 orders a month, 1 user and 1 location, with composite items, dropshipping and one Shopify store. Fine for a side hustle, but a shop and an online store will pass 50 orders a month quickly, and there are no barcodes.
Features
COrder and payout sync, stock and price sync, low-stock alerts, purchase orders and reconciliation. It works through QuickBooks or Xero rather than on its own.
BMarketplace and store sync, several warehouses with bins, sales and purchase orders, backorders, dropshipping, shipping labels, and barcodes with serial and batch tracking. That's the whole job, though barcodes, stock counts and batches start on Premium.
Ease of use
CNo store rating on record. You connect your accounting file and each store, so it is a C.
A4.75 from 1,029 App Store ratings, just into the top band. It also works with Zoho Books and Zoho CRM if you already use them.
Platforms and integrations
BWeb only, but with QuickBooks Online and Desktop, Xero, Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and eBay.
AWeb, Windows, iPhone and Android, with Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, Zoho Books, QuickBooks Online, Xero and carriers like UPS, USPS and FedEx. That's the full spread.

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
