About Venditory
Venditory started as a fix for my own businesses. Across the three companies I've owned and the five I've managed, I tried many kinds of software for different business needs, and for some needs I could not find any software at all. So I built what was missing. Now a team with 25 combined years in software development builds it with me. Chris S., founder.
Mission
The industry
Software for small businesses was built one job at a time, by different companies, and you were left to connect the pieces.
Differences
Most small business tools are separate companies with separate records. Venditory is separate apps on one database, so each does its job and all of them agree.
Command, Store, Outbound Sales and Studio each have their own address and their own sign-in screen, and every one reads and writes the same customers, stock and orders.
| Question | Separate tools from separate companies | Separate apps on shared data |
|---|---|---|
| Customer list | One per tool, retyped or exported | One list, shared by every product |
| Stock count | Each tool keeps its own | One count, updated by every sale |
| Sign-in | A login for each company | One sign-in across the four products |
| Buying | Everything or nothing, or many vendors | Only the products you need, add another later |
| Reports across channels | Export and merge by hand | Already together, no export |
