Best for a warehouse scanning app for Android handhelds
Cleverence Inventory runs on Android phones and rugged scanners and handles receiving, put-away, picking and counts, with a web view of stock. It is priced per device from $58 a month, there is no iOS app, and ready-made ERP links are on a quoted plan.
Who Cleverence is for
- Fits if your pickers carry Android phones or rugged handhelds
- Works for small warehouses that want scanning without an ERP to start
Who Cleverence is not for
- Skip it if your team uses iPhones, as there is no iOS app
- Pricey if you add handhelds, since every device needs its own $58 or $69 a month licence
- Watch out: it does not pick the earliest-expiry lot, the picker chooses
- Watch out: ready-made ERP and WMS links need the Enterprise plan, priced on request
Why Cleverence gets a 2.2
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for money$58 a month per device sits between this category's $49 cheaper quarter and $91 middle price, and every handheld needs its own licence. The on-premise version is $850 per device once.
- CFree plan and trialA free trial with sample data; the page does not say whether a card is needed. No free plan.
- CFeaturesGuided flows, a phone camera or rugged scanner, offline use, lots and serials. It does not pick the earliest-expiry lot by itself, and ERP links are on Enterprise.
- CEase of useYou set up devices, locations and flows, and often an ERP link. No store rating is on record.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb plus Android, with QuickBooks, Xero, Odoo, Shopify and SAP links. No iOS app.

Keep Cleverence, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Cleverence you could make: inventory. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $696 a year.
What you could make
- Inventory: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Scanning barcodes with a phone camera or a scanner.
- A real app for Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Enterprise and Xero among them.
What this rests on. Cleverence’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Cleverence?
Cleverence Inventory is a scanning app for Android phones and rugged handhelds paired with a web app that shows stock by location. It handles receiving, put-away, picking, shipping and counting, and can run on its own or be connected to an ERP. The vendor also sells related products for stores, factories, deliveries, assets and labels.
Worth knowing
- There is no iOS app; scanning needs an Android phone, tablet or handheld.
- Pricing is per device, so every handheld in use needs its own license.
- It does not pick the earliest-expiry lot automatically; the picker chooses the lot.
- Ready-made ERP and WMS integrations are on the Enterprise plan, which is priced on request.
Key features
- Guided warehouse flows
- Receiving, put-away, picking, shipping, transfers, stocktaking, returns and write-offs on a handheld.
- Phone camera or rugged scanner
- Runs on Android phones and tablets using the camera, or on professional Android scanners from makers such as Zebra, Honeywell and Datalogic.
- Offline handheld app
- The handheld app works offline and syncs when back online; the web app needs a connection.
- Locations, lots and serials
- Stock by warehouse and storage location, with bin locations and batch, lot and serial tracking on Advanced.
- Starts without an ERP
- Import an item list from a spreadsheet; the team can connect QuickBooks, Odoo, Shopify, SAP and other systems later.
- Cloud or your own servers
- Run it in the vendor's cloud with no installation, or install it on your own servers.
