It's what every artisan needs

Once I understood that it takes time and effort to start using (and then keep using) Craftybase, it became much easier to run my business. I actually let Craftybase run ME. The customer service is top-notch (although I do wish they didn't run on UK time) and I'd be lost without it.
Pros
I love this software because the developers understand how a small manufacturing business works. They don't load you down with confusing features - just what you need when you need it. It has helped me get completely organized with raw materials, track all production, determine pricing and just basically keep everything straight. If you're a maker and you're not using it, you need to be.
Cons
I sometimes feel the software tries to be all things to all people. I really don't see why the accounting aspects are necessary and feel they are sometimes lacking.

Great for knitters
Reviewed on 2023/07/09
Pros
I sell knit products, and it’s been fantastic at tracking everything I make and sell as well as the yarn I buy.
Cons
I wish there was a way for the recipe to be updated from the manufactures. Right now, figuring out how much yarn I use per product is a manual process, and it’s one of the most important parts of my price estimates.

Pros
It works. It’s robust, perhaps more so than I need. I’m a Gen-Xer, so I don’t mind the old-school UI
Cons

Overall Great App
Reviewed on 2023/03/31
Pros
Good value, good customer service, gets the job done! As long as I keep manufactures and supply purchases up to date, my inventory is accurate and the program helps me not run out of materials, or over-purchase.
Cons
I still find it challenging to nearly impossible bundle products for promotional items or gift sets, even with being in their Facebook group and hearing tips from other users. It isn't intuitive in the program to bundle items together. Rather, other users share how they make it work.

They are responsive, fix problems when they arise, they are excellent at walking you through what it is you need to do to achieve your task. It's been a life saver for me since I still have a day job and takes some of the nitty gritty record keeping off my hands through automations.
Pros
It's online and supports multiple sales channels. It pulls items out of my inventory and has been a life/marriage saver at tax time (I'm a sole proprietorship) and it's ease of use for tallying annual reports is fabulous. I do handcrafts so QuickBooks really is not designed for this industry.
Cons
The tech support is great and they work really quickly to get back to you in short time. In an ideal world, it would be 24/7, but their response time is great.
