Features
Get Xero for manufacturing companies to stay on track and in the black
Katana offers excellent inventory optimization and simple Xero integration, bringing more automation to your production process and organization of your manufacturing inventory and raw materials. Without being made by Xero, it serves as Xero manufacturing software thanks to the smart native integration between both platforms.
With Katana and Xero everything is linked and together in one place. You can type descriptions in and it works really well with an Excel card system and I find it much easier to use – rather than remembering product codes.”

We’re really utilizing all features Katana offers. It has been a great experience. The staff is excellent — anytime I have a question, I use the chat or Knowledge base, and the team has been an immense help during the implementation and integration of all our products.”

I used to spend around 15 minutes per individual order on admin work, and I would be doing it all – preparing the packing lists, labels, and shipping. Now I do not need to touch any of that. Instead, I can put this time into designing new products and developing the business.”
Thomas Judge
Owner at GJ Motorsports
The reason why we were very sold on Katana was the how-to and guide videos and walkthrough videos were pretty straightforward. It was simple and we were able to connect to all our online stores and had everything we needed.”
