Controlata — Analytics & Data

What is Controlata?

Controlata is a cloud-based inventory management system designed specifically for manufacturers. It gives you real-time visibility of materials and finished goods, helps you plan production runs, and automates cost calculations. Instead of juggling spreadsheets or outdated systems, you get one source of truth for your entire manufacturing operation.

Who is it for?

It's built for small workshops and growing manufacturers that need to track inventory, plan production, and understand true product costs. It's ideal for businesses that make physical goods—like furniture, electronics, or food products—and need to manage raw materials, sub-assemblies, and finished products. It's not for pure service businesses or retailers that don't manufacture.

Real use cases

Use Controlata to maintain a live bill of materials with labor and overhead costs, so you always know the exact cost per unit. Plan production with confidence—the system checks material availability before you start. You can also manage supplier deliveries and customer orders in one place, generate invoices automatically, and track inventory across multiple storage locations. Shopify integration syncs orders and inventory automatically.

Key benefits

With a 14-day free trial and plans starting at $39/month, you can try it risk-free. The platform delivers enterprise-grade security, 99.9% uptime, and expert support via live chat. Regular updates are driven by customer feedback, so the tool keeps improving with your needs.
