Zoho Inventory

Zoho Inventory is the stock and order management module from the Zoho suite. It handles the catalog, composite items, serial and batch numbers, customer and supplier orders, replenishment, dropshipping, backorders, and shipping with label printing and parcel tracking. The official site shows pricing in dollars. A free plan covers 50 orders per month, 1 user, and 2 locations. On annual billing, Standard costs $29/month (500 orders, 2 users, 2 locations), Professional $79/month (3,000 orders, 4 locations), Premium $129/month (7,500 orders, 6 locations), and Enterprise $249/month (15,000 orders, 7 users, 10 locations). Add-ons include $7.50/month per extra user, $7.50 per 500-order tier, and $10 per additional location.

The site and interface are available in French, making the tool accessible to a small team without English speakers. Named integrations cover Shopify, WooCommerce, Zoho Commerce, and Etsy on sales, Zoho Books, Xero, and QuickBooks Online on accounting, and UPS, FedEx, DHL, USPS, Aramex, and Canada Post on transport. A documented developer API and webhooks allow custom integrations, and the tool naturally hooks into the rest of the Zoho suite (CRM, invoicing). The limitations are clear and structural: the monthly order ceiling is the true pricing lever, and an e-merchant exceeding it pays either a higher tier or $7.50 per 500-order tier. French carriers like Colissimo, Chronopost, or Mondial Relay are not native connectors, and document templates need rework to fit French practices.
