“We have fully integrated with Katana, Shopify and Quickbooks for the entirety of our manufacturing process and have been using it for about 6 months now. This software is amazing and the features keep coming.”
"Katana's bill of materials (BOM) is a tremendous help in our manufacturing process and overall production management. Integrations with Shopify and Xero also play a big role in business management, helping us streamline our operations from sales orders to ready-made goods. We can now manage both B2B and B2C orders with greater ease."
“Katana has helped us fully integrate our online sales with the manufacturing site. With real-time updates on raw material and product stock we can proactively prioritize our inventory usage and give quick feedback to customers. This way Katana support delivering our watches on time and at the right location securing customer satisfaction.”
“Simply the most powerful software built for coffee roastery owners. My everyday operations and roast production scheduling haven’t been as organized as they are now. Cheers to Katana.”
"We needed a system that could help us assign and schedule tasks, as well as see how long the life of a product is in terms of how long it takes to make, label, and shrink wrap. We needed this information by the item itself and a way to multiply it long-term so when taking on larger projects, we know if we need more help and can directly see the cost of materials and operations. We also wanted a better overview of our inventory, and Katana had all of that."
"We were having issues accounting for bundled products as well as tracking labor costs in realtime. I have enjoyed that Katana has these capabilities and we no longer have to count thousands of products each week! "
"With Katana, we can more effectively see and follow inventory levels, and have recipes and bills of materials (BOMs) for our manufactured products that let us follow the manufacturing status throughout the whole production cycle."
"Not everyone has an account on your Shop Floor App, I’ve given it to only two people so far. It works well to have 2 Shop Floor Apps and 2 tablets, and then people can choose from the tablet whether they are in the kitchen or in the packaging. I’m a big Excel lover, so I find the Shop Floor App very useful – at the end of the workday, I like to export the tasks and operations from the Make screen and see what has been done during the day.”
"Our inventory management was such a wreck before Katana! We are hitting it hard with high efficiency because we are no longer running out of items and have all vendor and contact information embedded with the materials."
"Katana provides us with all the necessary features for manufacturing order management. Furthermore, we can track inventory usage and incorporate our sales order tracking into Katana."
“There aren’t many softwares built with crafters and makers in mind. But Katana MRP sure is the one. Thanks to Katana I’ve been able to get rid of the stress of being unorganized and behind with delivery deadlines.”
"Our B2B customers used to wait probably 6 to 8 weeks for an order. Because of the improvements we’ve made and the visibility of everything, we've been able to reduce that down to 10 days."
"Katana has been an asset to our inventory management and production planning. We were using QuickBooks desktop to manage all inventory before, now Katana streamlines our production planning, making it more efficient."
“We don’t miss spreadsheets one bit after finding Katana. It feels good to be on top of your inventory. Both raw and made products.”
"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."
