👥 Fabrikatör supports growing Shopify stores to efficiently manage inventory processes. On the other hand, Shopify developed Stocky for Shopify Plus users to address the basic needs of their inventory management process. However, it is not very functional according to customer complaints.
📱Fabrikatör stands out with its strong planning features compared to Stocky. Its advanced demand forecasting capabilities, long-term planning, and user-friendly UX help businesses easily plan future stock. Additionally, Fabrikatör fastens the purchasing process with quick POs and automatizes the replenishment process to avoid stock issues.
Stocky, on the other hand, allows users to manage purchase orders, communicate with suppliers, utilize reporting for inventory decisions, and review incoming inventory in Shopify POS. It offers extensive multi-location support but lacks important features such as backorders, goal setting, and barcode scanning(you must do it in the Shopify dashboard).
Both platforms cover essential reporting features, but Fabrikatör includes additional reports such as selling fast & slow, revenue forecast, value in stock, and dead stock. Moreover, Fabrikatör support its customers with integrations like QuickBooks and ShipHero, Stocky does not offer these integrations. There are numerous customer reviews indicating that Stocky currently lacks sufficient features and has various issues, and its rating of 2.8/5 on the Shopify app store proves that.
💸 Fabrikatör offers advanced inventory management features at a starting price of $99/month, which makes inventory management efficiency accessible for small to midsize businesses with smaller teams. Stocky, on the other hand, is free if you are a Shopify Plus user.
