  • Access begins with a demo request or a trial rather than a self serve signup

Finale Inventory

  • The entry plan starts at $499 a month, which is a high floor for a small operation
  • Both published prices are starting figures rather than fixed rates
  • The mobile barcode warehouse module requires the $799 Growth plan
  • Order volume and user limits are stated for the platform overall rather than per plan, so what a given tier actually allows is not published
  • Enterprise pricing is on request
