The report card
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.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | $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. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A free trial with sample data; the page does not say whether a card is needed. No free plan. |
| Features | C | Guided 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. |
| Ease of use | C | You set up devices, locations and flows, and often an ERP link. No store rating is on record. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web plus Android, with QuickBooks, Xero, Odoo, Shopify and SAP links. No iOS app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
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 it 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
Good to know
Good for
- Warehouses moving from paper lists to scanning on Android devices
- Teams that want to price by handheld rather than by person
- Businesses with an ERP they want to keep and extend
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.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
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.
