Antevon and the alternatives
Prices, features and company facts checked 21 Oct 2026. Content updated 22 Oct 2026.
A beauty brand can get its stock forecast five ways. You build it yourself, your team runs software, you hire a person, a firm builds it with you, or a team runs it for you. Below are 107 options, each with its own page that says when it is the better choice.
Who does the work
We place each option by what its own website says it is. Pick what you need below, then open a name for the full comparison.

What the published prices come to
Type in your size. Each figure uses a company’s own published list price, on the date shown.
The starting figures are a typical brand we work with. Change them to yours. Nothing you type leaves this page, and every figure below is an estimate.

How the figures are worked out
Each figure is an estimate. It uses the plan a company publishes for your size, at its list price on the date shown. A monthly price is multiplied by 12, a price per 30 days by 365 and divided by 30, and a yearly price stays as it is. A price per user is multiplied by the people who need a login. Required fees are added. Prices are shown as the company publishes them, without VAT unless its page says otherwise. Each currency has its own chart, and we do not convert between currencies.
A software price covers the software only. Your team still runs the forecast. A service price covers the work the company describes on its page.
The calculator uses a price only when the company publishes which plan fits which size. These options publish no price, or prices without that rule, so they are not in the charts: Assisty, Bisham Consulting, Brightpearl by Sage, Cin7, EazyStock, Eightx, EyeOn, Flieber, flinder, Flow Partners, Flowpath, Genie, Intuendi, Inventory Ahead, Inventory Planner by Sage, Katana, Lokad, Moselle, Netstock, Paul Trudgian, Prediko, Singuli, SKU Science, SKUtrak, Slimstock / Slim4, SoStocked, StockTrim, Streamline (GMDH), Supply Chain Consulting Group (SCCG), Trym Consulting, Unleashed, AGR, Anamind, Arkieva, Avercast, Circana / Liquid Data Go, Columbus Consulting, Enchange, ERPNext, FD Capital, Fishbowl, Forecast Pro, frePPLe, Graphene Partners, Hatmill, Highspring, inFlow Inventory, Iris Finance, John Galt Solutions / Atlas, Linnworks, Mintel, Mobile Reality, Odoo, Optiply, Oracle NetSuite, OrderWise, Ordoro, Plex DemandCaster, Propeller Industries, RestockPro, Sage 200, SAP Business One, SCALA Consulting, StockIQ, The Boutique Consultancy, The CFO Centre, The CPG CFO, Toolio, ToolsGroup, Veeqo, Vividly, Zoho Inventory, Anaplan, Blue Yonder, Bluecrux, Board, Crew Finance, EFESO Management Consultants, Escalon Services, Euromonitor Passport, FourCentric, Kantar Marketplace, Kinaxis Maestro, Logility, NielsenIQ Byzzer, o9 Solutions, OMP / Unison Planning, Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Planning, RELEX Solutions, SAP Integrated Business Planning, Solventure, SPINS, Statista, Synergic Technologies, WrightCFO. Each one’s page lists every price it publishes.
How we compare
Antevon writes these pages. Each fact about another company comes from that company’s public pages: we keep the page address, its exact words and the date we read it. Antevon’s own facts follow the same rule.
We recheck prices every week, and features and company facts every month. A recheck that finds no change moves only the check date. A change updates the page and its “Content updated” date.
Got something wrong? Contact us at corrections@antevon.com. We reply within 5 working days.
The “who it suits” filter is our own judgement of fit for a UK or EU beauty brand selling £0.5M to £25M a year, not a rating of any company.
