KATANA has been a great addition to my store. We currently use KATANA for our handmade jewelry ELLA DESIGNS. I used to write all my raw material prices in a notebook and then calculate necklace cost accordingly. I also would manage my orders manually. With KATANA I have been able to have a clear view of what is going on with production, my raw material inventory, my cost even the time dedicated to a creation that impacts my bottom line at the end of the game. KATANA support thank YOU as always. :)

Trying to manage production from two shopify stores was getting very messy using spreadsheets, task apps etc. Switching to Katana has made all the difference with my workflow and productivity. Tracking orders, stock and using materials more efficiently are just a few of the bonuses.

The team at Katana are super responsive to any questions or suggestions making the decision even more right for me.

Well worth giving it a go if you need to take control of your manufacturing. I'm a small one-man production unit so regardless of the size of your company you can see real benefits.
