Quartzy plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Academia | $50/month | 5 | Entry tier |
| Industry | $250/month | 5 | +$200/month, 4 more features |
| Enterprise | On request | 5 | Priced on request |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring Quartzy in for an academic lab of three postdocs replacing a shared freezer spreadsheet that nobody updates after a reagent runs out, a small biotech that wants requests approved by a lab manager before any money is committed, a principal investigator tracking consumable spend against separate grant codes for reporting, a growing company standardising ordering across two lab sites so duplicate reagent purchases stop. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Quartzy are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Inventory
Too few inventory tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Quartzy badges page.
Before you pay for Quartzy
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between $50/month and On request, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Quartzy against the tools that do have one before committing.
Quartzy runs on web, ios, android, and is published by Quartzy of Hayward, California, United States. The full record is on the Quartzy review, and the rest of the category is under best inventory tools.
