Inventory, manufacturing, and warehouse management for growing businesses.
Fishbowl is an inventory management and manufacturing platform built for small and mid-sized businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets or basic accounting-only stock tracking. It handles multi-location inventory, barcode scanning, order management, purchasing, and warehouse operations, with manufacturing features like bills of materials, work orders, and production tracking.
A large part of Fishbowl's appeal is its deep integration with QuickBooks (and Xero), letting businesses keep their accounting while gaining serious inventory and warehouse capability. It ships in two lines: Fishbowl Drive, a cloud-based offering aimed at warehouse and inventory control, and Fishbowl Advanced, the on-premise system for manufacturing and distribution. Newer releases add AI-driven insights (Fishbowl AI Insights with Athena) for demand and inventory forecasting.
