"We chose Katana because it presents our manufacturing business data in the easiest possible way. In our industry, we need good systems that give us a quick overview - and Katana delivers that. Compared to other systems we tried, Katana is the best in terms of user-friendliness and helping us track daily activities."
"We switched to this app to help manage our custom product orders. It is great at helping us track our costs, meet our delivery standards, and connect natively to Shopify - a big bonus that helps us pull for our orders and manage multiple stores and locations easily."
"We chose Katana because it seemed to be the most user-friendly software we tried. And that has proved to be true - it is very easy to use and the customer service is great."
"The whole process — quoting, invoicing, material handling — works together. It’s not just one area where Katana shines. It’s every step."
“With Katana, we were finally able to get a full overview of our manufacturing processes and material inventory. This software not only helped us significantly improve our production planning, but we are now twice as productive, as we save so much time on daily operations."
"On-demand manufacturing allowed us to grow, not just our product offering but to expand to different geographical regions. The Katana Team has always been extremely responsive and helpful, as well as their partner, DataAutomation. Together, we were able to figure out the different workflows to pull in the different information, produce the right amount, order our materials at an adequate amount so we are not over or underspending."
"Katana allowed us to consolidate everything into one platform. We know what our inventory is at the central hub, and it pushes out to every other location."
"With Katana and Shiptheory working together, it’s sometimes hard to remember what our problems used to be."
"We’d require a full-time person doing documentation in Excel to match what is automatically done by Katana."
"We assign serial numbers to sales orders in Katana once they’re completed. We want to see when it was built and to who and when it was shipped since that ties into our support workflow to keep track of warranties."
“Katana allows us visibility, efficiency, and productivity on every order from the time it is received in our system right through to the customers doorstep.”
“Syncing sales orders and production used to be the hardest part of our business. Now it’s the easiest. Besides, the software is surprisingly easy to set up.”
"Since implementing Katana, we’ve grown our product offering, and that wouldn't be possible without it. It has freed up my time so I can focus on designing and creating more products. It also means that I am not working until 11 pm every night."
"Katana software is absolutely amazing. It’s exactly what I needed - honestly it is a complete godsend to a business owner like me. The software is very easy to use and I have all my data in one place. Everyone with a jewelry business should try Katana."
"We knew we needed something more than just a spreadsheet but we didn't like the idea of paying a crazy amount for a huge system that we would not fully use. Katana was simplistic and answered what we needed without a ton of fluff or other elements that we did not need."
