Questions people ask before switching
Is there really nothing extra to pay?
No. Standard is $149 a month, or $1,490 a year, for unlimited users, orders, items and warehouses, with manufacturing, batch tracking, the operator app, returns and replenishment all in. Premium ($349) adds AI forecasting, custom reports and WhatsApp support. There are no per-seat fees, usage limits or setup fees, and your price is locked for as long as you subscribe.
How long does migration take?
About ten minutes for most catalogs. Paste a Katana API key or upload Katana Excel or Stocky CSV exports, review the validated preview, and confirm. Premium includes guided migration (we import, you review); Standard customers get free help by email.
Will the Shopify sync touch my stock without asking?
No. The first sync is a preview you confirm. After that, every stock change made by a sync is written to the ledger with its source, and you get an alert if a sync stops.
Can I cancel, and what happens to my data?
Cancel in one click inside the app, with no notice period and no sales call. You can download a full export of everything at any time, before or after cancelling.
Do you work in Arabic?
Yes. The whole interface, including the operator app, is available in Arabic (right-to-left) and English, chosen per user.
I am on Katana's free plan. Why move?
The free plan caps you at 30 SKUs and the next step is $299 a month before add-ons. MRPverse has no SKU cap on the trial or on Standard, and the first 14 days are free with no card.
