How to Decide

ERPAG is a cloud ERP aimed at small-to-medium manufacturers that need inventory, sales, and production planning, and it’s used by inventory‑driven businesses seeking built‑in MRP and BOM tools. The alternatives split into a few clear camps: Fishbowl leans on deep, long‑standing QuickBooks and Xero integrations with AI‑driven purchasing automation; Katana emphasizes a freemium model with strong native e‑commerce connectors and same‑day self‑serve onboarding for smaller manufacturers.

When comparing these options, focus on (1) pricing structure – ERPAG’s flat subscription versus Fishbowl’s quote‑based tiers and Katana’s freemium/Core plan pricing; (2) integration depth – native accounting links (QuickBooks/Xero) and e‑commerce connectors (Shopify, Amazon, HubSpot) differ across the three; (3) multi‑warehouse and real‑time inventory handling – ERPAG and Katana both offer multi‑warehouse tracking, while Fishbowl scales to unlimited warehouses on higher plans; and (4) manufacturing workflow support – ERPAG provides built‑in MRP and BOM, Fishbowl adds separate advanced manufacturing modules, and Katana bundles BOM, work orders, and demand forecasting in its core offering.
