with Kladana WMS
Customization + Responsive Support
We tried other ERP tools, but only Kladana let us customize formats and interfaces to fit our workflows. And when we had questions, support was right there — quick replies over messenger, no delays.
Using Kladana, we managed to streamline the manufacturing management in whole: production operations became smoother, raw materials planning & purchasing became much easier. Now, a purchasing manager can look at one screen In Kladana, access sales estimates, figure out how many raw materials need to be bought for different items, and make purchase orders straightaway.
Before Kladana, we were doing everything in Excel. All the stock and production records were maintained in spreadsheets. We weren’t able to arrange timely updates for the information about warehouse stocks: the materials we were receiving, the goods we were shipping.
In Kladana, we found the functionality we were looking for. In combination with affordability, it worked as a decisive factor. Another important area is tracking the amount of yield our company is getting. In this respect Kladana is suitable to our requirements, and we are going to start using the Financials module of the solution.
In Kladana we process sales orders, make sales invoices in pdf, and manage shipments. All bills of materials are stored in the software. All production stages are reflected in Kladana.
We have three warehouses: one for raw materials, one for production, and one for finished goods. We add the purchased materials to Inventory in Kladana, and the raw materials are transferred to production. In production, they are processed in a production order. Then the finished goods appear in another warehouse. Thus, 1,500 bottles are moved from one warehouse to another in a couple of clicks.

FAQs on Warehouse Management Software for Small Businesses
General Questions
It’s affordable, easy to set up, and doesn’t require a big IT team. A good WMS helps small businesses keep track of inventory, avoid stockouts, speed up picking and shipping, and reduce costly mistakes. Many systems come with simple dashboards, barcode scanning, and reorder alerts to make warehouse operations smooth — even if you’re managing just one warehouse or a small team.
The best warehouse management software (WMS) depends on your business size, budget, and needs. For small businesses, look for a WMS that is:
- Affordable: Many systems start around $50—$100 per month, or even offer free plans with basic features.
- Easy to set up and use: You shouldn’t need a full IT team. A good WMS will have clear dashboards, simple navigation, and helpful guides or tutorials.
- Equipped with core features: Make sure it covers real‑time inventory tracking, barcode scanning, reorder points, and basic warehouse operations like receiving, picking, packing, and shipping.
- Scalable: As your business grows, your WMS should handle more SKUs, multiple warehouses, and higher order volumes.
- Integrated: It should connect easily with your e‑commerce platforms (like WooCommerce or Shopify) and accounting software to keep sales, inventory, and finances in sync.
For examples of leading WMS options for small businesses — including free and cloud‑based tools — check out our complete guide to warehouse management software.
Prices for small business WMS vary. Many cloud‑based systems start at around $50—$100 per month. Some offer yearly plans from $60—$500 depending on features, user count, and warehouses. Basic versions might be free, which is great for small teams just starting out. Costs usually rise with more advanced functions like detailed analytics, integrations, or multi‑location tracking.
The four main types of WMS are:
- Standalone WMS: Focuses only on warehouse tasks like inventory, picking, and shipping.
- Integrated WMS: Connects directly with ERP or accounting systems to sync warehouse with finance and sales.
- Cloud‑based WMS: Runs online, accessible from anywhere, easy to scale, with automatic updates.
- Hybrid WMS: Mixes local (on‑premise) and cloud systems, giving flexibility for security or specialized setups.
SCM (Supply Chain Management) handles the whole flow of goods — from suppliers to manufacturing to delivery. It covers planning, sourcing, production, logistics, and even returns. A WMS (Warehouse Management System) is focused just on what happens inside your warehouse — managing stock locations, order picking, packing, and shipments. Think of WMS as one part of the bigger SCM picture.
An ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system manages your entire business in one platform — including sales, purchasing, production, accounting, and inventory. A WMS specializes in warehouse operations only — it tracks inventory, manages picking and packing, and organizes shipments. Many ERPs (like Kladana) have built‑in WMS modules, so you can handle everything from production to warehouse to invoicing in one app.

Key features include real‑time inventory tracking, barcode scanning, multi‑location support, automated reorder points, order management (picking, packing, shipping), and clear reports or dashboards to spot slow or fast‑moving stock.
The six key operations in warehouse management include:
- Receiving: Checking in new deliveries.
- Put‑away: Storing goods in the right bins or shelves.
- Picking: Collecting items to fulfill orders.
- Packing: Preparing orders for shipment.
- Shipping: Dispatching goods to customers.
- Returns: Handling returned items back into inventory.
Look at order accuracy rates, average inventory turnover, picking and shipping times, days goods stay in stock, and the frequency of stockouts or excess stock. These help you see how efficient and cost‑effective your warehouse is.
Yes. Whether you have one small warehouse or several locations for raw materials, production, finished goods, or retail, Kladana lets you track stock separately in each place. You can also manage subcontractor or third‑party locations.
