This software helps you manage your Amazon inventory, and is especially useful, if you have stock in multiple warehouses, and fulfill both AFN and MFN. It also combines data from your Shopify, Amazon and WooCommerce in one view. Setup and onboarding are quite complicated, so you may need someone from their team to guide you through.
They have automated demand forecasting, which is a great feature. If you sell grocery items, it will track expiration dates for you. Overall nice software, and free trial does not require a credit card.

Shows you how many units you have in stock. It also lets you create FBA shipments without going to Seller Central. Nicely connects all channels, so you can see overall situation of stock in all places – at your own warehouse, at Amazon warehouse, in transit, also at eBay, Walmart and more.
It forecasts how many units you need to order, using most recent sales rate, without looking at the seasonality. But this is ok, as most sellers like to see forecasts based on most recent sales. (Shopkeeper does seasonal forecasting, and that gets too complicated sometimes.)
