What options are available is also dependant on how complex your needs are.

* Do you need to accept returns or exchanges?
* Does inventory status need to be reflected on your site in real time?
* Are all of your stock units complete or do you have subassemblies that need to be put together into final goods?
* Do you need for your inventory management software to warn you when certain thresholds are passed?
* Do you want your inventory management system to automatically generate purchase orders to vendors to restock?
* Do you need your inventory management system closely tied into your accounting system?

The more "yes" answers you have, the more you can expect to spend...
