Cin7 Alternatives (2026)
Key takeaway: The best Cin7 alternative depends on what you use Cin7 for. Planning stock for Shopify and Amazon: ReplenishRadar from $99 a month, month to month. Wholesale with a B2B ordering portal on a smaller budget: inFlow from $99 a month billed annually. Manufacturing: Katana, free to 30 SKUs, then a custom annual quote. Barcode-driven warehouse work at volume: Finale from $499 a month. A small catalog already inside Zoho: Zoho Inventory from $29 a month billed annually. Prices checked on each vendor's own page on October 19, 2026.
If you sell on Shopify and Amazon and you mostly used Cin7 to decide what to reorder, switch to ReplenishRadar at $99 a month, month to month. If you run wholesale and need customers to place orders through a B2B portal, inFlow does that from $99 a month billed annually. Makers go to Katana. Warehouses that live on barcode scanners go to Finale. A small catalog already running on Zoho Books goes to Zoho Inventory. I checked every price below on the vendor's own pricing page on October 19, 2026. Cin7 is a capable operations suite. The question this post answers is whether you need a suite at all.
Why people actually leave Cin7
There are two reasons worth taking seriously, and one of them is about the price page rather than the product.
Cin7 Core's Standard plan is $349 a month. It includes 5 users, 6,000 sales orders a year and 2 e-commerce and app integrations, with more of each sold on top. Count your connections. Shopify is one. Amazon is two. QuickBooks or Xero is three. A seller with three connections is past Standard on the integration count alone, whatever their order volume. Pro at $599 a month includes 4 integrations and 10 users. Cin7 notes that the listed prices are for new customers, so if you signed earlier, your own invoice is the number to compare against.
The second reason is fit. Cin7 Core covers purchasing, warehouse management, a B2B portal, EDI, POS and production. If what you open every week is the reorder screen and the rest goes untouched, you are paying suite pricing for a planning job.
Neither reason means Cin7 is bad. They mean the bill is set by the shape of your business, and the shape may have changed since you signed.
The alternatives
| Tool | Best for | Stated price from | Contract | Shopify + Amazon | Locations |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cin7 Core (for reference) | Wholesale, EDI and POS in one system | $349/mo, 5 users, 2 integrations | Not stated on the pricing page | Both, FBA and FBM | Unlimited |
| ReplenishRadar | Reorder and FBA planning for Shopify plus Amazon | $99/mo launch ($119 regular), 2 users | Month to month | Both, builds FBA inbound plans | Unlimited from Standard |
| inFlow | Wholesale with a B2B ordering portal | $99/mo billed annually (1 location), $299/mo for 5 locations, plus $499 onboarding | Month to month at a higher rate ($129 Lite), or annual | Both | 1 to unlimited by plan |
| Katana | Makers who manufacture what they sell | Free to 30 SKUs, then custom quote | Annual on the paid plan | Shopify on Free, more channels on paid | Unlimited |
| Finale Inventory | Barcode-driven warehouse work at volume | $499/mo Essentials, $799/mo Growth | Most customers pick 12, 24 or 36 months | Both, in 40-plus channel connections | 1 to 2 warehouses on Essentials |
| Zoho Inventory | Small catalogs already inside Zoho | Free to 50 orders, then $29/mo billed annually | Annual for the headline price | Both | 2 on Standard, up to 10 on Enterprise |
Prices as published on each vendor's pricing page, checked October 19, 2026. Vendors change these without notice, so read them as the floor on that date, not a quote.
ReplenishRadar, if Cin7 was really your planning tool
I will be direct about what we are and are not. We are not an operations suite. There is no B2B portal, no EDI, no POS and no pick-and-pack app. What we do is the planning job. One forecast per product covers Shopify and Amazon together. It splits the buy between your own warehouse and FBA, and builds the FBA inbound plan through Amazon's API. Purchase orders round to your supplier's minimums and case packs, and lead times come from your closed POs rather than a number someone typed in two years ago.
Standard is $99 a month on launch pricing, $119 regular, for 2 stores, 2,000 SKUs, 2 users and 1,000 sales line items a month. Growth is $199 launch, $249 regular, for 5 stores, 20,000 SKUs, 5 users and 5,000 line items. Neither plan counts integrations, and you can cancel any month. Setup is OAuth into Shopify and Seller Central, then a backfill, and the trial is 14 days with no sales call. If your Cin7 bill is $599 because of a third integration, this is the comparison to run. The full ReplenishRadar vs Cin7 comparison goes feature by feature.
inFlow, if you run wholesale and need the portal
This is the closest like-for-like move for a wholesale business, and it keeps a customer-facing ordering portal at a lower floor than Cin7. inFlow calls the portal Showroom. On the Lite and Core plans it is a $39 a month add-on, and Shopify and Amazon connections are listed on every plan. Lite is $99 a month billed annually ($129 month to month) but covers 1 location and 2 team members. Most Cin7 leavers will land on Core, which is $299 a month billed annually or $379 month to month, for 5 locations and 5 people. Add the required $499 one-time onboarding. inFlow also sells extra integrations as add-ons, so count your connections here the same way you did for Cin7. The month-to-month option matters if a contract renewal is what pushed you here.
Katana, if you make what you sell
Katana is manufacturing software first: bills of materials, production orders, raw material stock. If you used Cin7's production features, Katana is the move that keeps them. The free plan covers 30 SKUs, which is enough to test. The paid Advantage plan is a custom quote on an annual contract with guided implementation, so budget time for a sales conversation. Katana no longer publishes a fixed monthly price for it.
Finale Inventory, if your warehouse runs on scanners
Finale is warehouse software. Essentials starts at $499 a month for one or two warehouses, and the mobile barcode module comes with Growth at $799 a month. Finale says most customers choose 12, 24 or 36-month terms. Nobody moves from Cin7 to Finale to save money. You move because pick, pack and receiving by scanner is the daily work and you want a tool built around it, with Amazon and Shopify among its 40-plus channel connections.
Zoho Inventory, if you are small and already on Zoho
Zoho Inventory's Standard plan is $29 a month billed annually for 500 orders a month, 3 users and 2 locations. Premium is $79 for 3,000 orders and 4 locations. It connects to Shopify and Amazon, and it fits neatly if Zoho Books already runs your accounting. Above 15,000 orders a month or 10 locations you outgrow its Enterprise plan at $249, and that is the point to look elsewhere.
What the switch is worth
Illustrative assumptions: a Shopify and Amazon seller on Cin7 Pro because Shopify, Amazon and QuickBooks make three integrations, with about 1,500 sales lines a month and 4 people who need a login. That volume puts them on ReplenishRadar Growth at launch pricing. Implementation fees are left out on both sides.
| Line | Cin7 Core Pro | ReplenishRadar Growth |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly | $599 | $199 |
| Twelve months | $7,188 | $2,388 |
| Difference per year | $4,800 |
Forty-eight hundred dollars a year is real money, but price alone is the wrong reason to move. The right test is a list. Write down every Cin7 screen your team opened last month. If the list includes the B2B portal, EDI or POS, you need a suite, and inFlow or staying put is the honest answer. If the list is reorder suggestions, purchase orders and stock levels, you are paying for a building when you use one room.
Before you cancel anything, export your closed purchase orders as a CSV. That history is how any new tool learns your real supplier lead times. Starting without it means typing guesses into the field that sets your reorder points.
How to pick in one minute
Start with the portal, because it splits the table in two. Wholesale customers ordering online means inFlow, or Cin7 itself. Production means Katana. Scanners in a busy warehouse means Finale. Under 500 orders a month on Zoho Books means Zoho. Everyone left is a Shopify and Amazon seller whose real job is deciding what to buy and what to send to FBA, and that is the job we built ReplenishRadar for. Try it free for 14 days and compare its first reorder list against what Cin7 told you last week.
