repleno app: item detail with stock and replenishment

Choosing the right software for stock tracking and warehousing is not easy. Which features do you need? What fits you and your day to day? And which features are covered in which of a vendor's plans? Let's take a look at how repleno stacks up as an alternative to sevdesk inventory management.

Which one fits when?

repleno gets your warehouse ready for operational work together with you. sevdesk has no such offer.

repleno

repleno fits you better than sevdesk inventory management when hands-on warehouse work comes first and you need warehouse features that go beyond plain stock tracking at the PC.

sevdesk

sevdesk is enough when stock is only seen as part of accounting and you need no further features for hands-on warehouse work.

Who gets my warehouse ready for operational work?

Recording stock is the easy part. The hard part is getting the warehouse ready for operational work in the first place: structure, bins, goods receipt, material capture and returns as a process, a team that follows along. At sevdesk nobody can help you with that. The Inventory add-on is where you keep your stock. Nothing more. At repleno you can request exactly this service. The founder helps you, on site if you want, anywhere in Germany. Whether advising, hands-on in the operational rollout, or just for your first steps with repleno.

What does repleno cost compared to sevdesk?

The costs differ because the billing models are fundamentally different. sevdesk charges the plan's base fee plus the Inventar add-on for one user. Every additional user costs extra and raises the total. repleno, by contrast, charges by the number of actively managed items, no matter how many users work in the warehouse.

Common questions about sevdesk inventory management and repleno

sevdesk and repleno can run in parallel. sevdesk stays responsible for invoicing, accounting, DATEV export and advance VAT returns, while repleno takes over the day-to-day inventory management. You do not replace sevdesk, only its Inventar add-on when needed.
