In this fast-paced world of moving data and transferrable information, businesses must keep themselves in top performance in order to handle the ever-changing markets that they face. Inventory management software helps businesses do that by keeping track of inventory, stock, cashflow, and in some cases, income and expenses. Inventory management software comes in many different forms and not each program is alike. This article will list a number of inventory management programs so that businesses and individuals alike can choose a software that works for them.

InFlow Inventory
InFlow Inventory allows users to keep track of over 10,000 products from one computer. The software is also compatible with many popular barcode scanners that the user can plug into his/her computer in order to scan items with. The software can keep track of multiple locations, log inventory movement history, measure amounts in various measurements, and can even automatically assemble virtual finished pieces and track them based on the inventory of that piece’s parts. For example, if the program sees that the company has one bicycle frame, one handlebar, one seat, and two wheels, it will automatically track it as one bicycle and still show the quantities of the individual parts.

FishBowl Inventory
FishBowl Inventory allows users to count, track, and manage their inventory while increasing their bottom line. FishBowl is partnered with QuickBooks and is fully integratable with the software. FishBowl allows its customers to track inventory from their cell phones and mobile devices and can show the user exactly where a particular item is, right down to the shelf and bin number. The software includes a 100% money-back guarantee and is available on a free trial basis and free web demo.

Megaventory
Megaventory is a free service that allows users to keep track of their inventory and spending by issuing invoices, purchase orders, and sales orders.
