## InvenTree

Business application

Inventory and parts management with APIs and an extension ecosystem.

### Why we recommend it

We recommend it for a purpose-built inventory product where stock, parts and integrations matter more than a full ERP.

### When to choose it

- Parts catalogues, stock tracking and manufacturing-related inventory.

### What to consider

- Validate your warehouse and accounting boundaries; plugins have their own compatibility and maintenance needs.

### Start with this project

Model representative parts, locations and stock movements before building custom screens.

Technology: Python, Django, React, PostgreSQL / MySQL / MariaDB / SQLite

## Snipe-IT

Business application

An IT asset register for equipment assignments and software licences.

### Why we recommend it

A strong Laravel-based starting point when the key question is who has which company asset.

### When to choose it

- Laptop checkout, employee equipment records and IT asset audits.

### What to consider

- Asset checkout differs from commercial warehouse fulfilment; assess AGPL obligations and integration gaps.

### Start with this project

Test the full issue, return and reassignment lifecycle with a small equipment sample.

## OpenBoxes

Business application

Warehouse and stock-movement software rooted in healthcare supply chains.

### Why we recommend it

Worth evaluating when transfers, receiving and stock visibility are central to your operating model.

### When to choose it

- Multi-warehouse logistics, receiving and supply-chain stock tracking.

### What to consider

- Its specialised domain and Groovy/Grails stack require fit analysis and suitable operating expertise.

### Start with this project

Reproduce one receipt, transfer and dispatch process with your own location structure.

## Grocy

Business application

A lightweight system for household stock, food and consumables.

### Why we recommend it

Useful for small consumption-focused applications where expiry dates and everyday stock handling drive the design.

### When to choose it

- Food inventory, shared supplies and small internal stock tools.

### What to consider

- Do not assume enterprise warehouse features, complex purchasing or financial inventory valuation are included.

### Start with this project

Check product units, expiry handling and consumption flows against your real use case.
