“Small Manufacturing MRP”
Pros
The inventory management software is great considering its price
Cons
I wish Katana had better compatibility with other programs, especially Extensive which we use for most of our other plugins. It would also be great if there was a way to track cutting programs.

“Katana for a small manufacturer”
Pros
Managing products and variants is made easy with Katana. Since our products have numerous variants, it's convenient to handle them all at once. Our previous MRP system required us to create a unique BOM for each variant, which was time consuming
Cons
There are a few improvements I'd like to see in Katana. Firstly, the ability to set a minimum order quantity. Secondly, the option to reject or separate second-quality parts in a manufacturing lot. It would also be helpful to have an easy way to view the product list without breaking it down into variants. Additionally, it would be great to have the ability to show only certain BOM items on the shop floor app, as consumables like glue and tape don't need to be displayed.
