Why Hykmah's Ecosystem Matters
The Multi-Product Advantage
Most inventory systems solve one problem. When your business needs job management, B2B ordering, or subscription billing, you're shopping for another vendor - another monthly bill, another login, and manual work to keep everything in sync.
Cin7 offers a B2B portal as a paid add-on on top of their base subscription. Job management requires a separate vendor entirely.
Hykmah is different:
When you subscribe to Stockwise, you're not just getting inventory management. You can add Operon (job management), Orderlink (B2B ordering), or other products to the same subscription — no extra product fees, no new vendor, no re-entering data between systems.
Real-World Example: 5-Person Team
Option 1: Hykmah Professional
Stockwise (3 users included) + Operon (unlimited users): $80 AUD/month
($50 base + 2 extra Stockwise users at $15/mo each)
Total: $80 AUD/month
- One subscription, one login
- No duplicate data entry between systems
Estimated Saving: $540/month+ ($6,480/year+)
Option 2: Multiple Vendors
Cin7 Standard: ~$541 AUD/month
B2B Portal Add-on: Contact sales
ServiceM8 (job management): $79 AUD/month
Estimated Total: $620+ AUD/month
- Re-keying data between systems
- Two vendor relationships to manage

Annual savings range from $5,892 at 6,000 orders/year to $14,376 at 25,000 orders/year. Stockwise Professional ($50 AUD/month) handles 12,000 transactions per year versus Cin7 Standard ($541 AUD/month converted from $349 USD) which limits you to 6,000 orders per year. That's 2× the order capacity at 91% lower cost.
No. Stockwise uses transaction-based monthly limits (1,000 to 10,000 per month depending on tier) rather than annual order caps. Cin7 limits orders to 6,000, 24,000, or 120,000 per year by tier, requiring tier upgrades when you exceed limits. This makes Stockwise pricing more flexible and predictable for growing businesses.
The B2B portal (Orderlink) is included in Stockwise Professional tier at $50/month with no additional product fees. Cin7 offers their B2B portal as a separate paid add-on on top of the base subscription. This represents additional savings of approximately $1,188-2,388 per year compared to Cin7's B2B add-on pricing.
Yes. All Stockwise pricing is in Australian Dollars (AUD) with no currency fluctuation risk for Australian businesses. Cin7 bills in USD only, which exposes Australian businesses to exchange rate volatility and makes budget forecasting more difficult. This AUD billing provides predictable, transparent pricing for local companies.
Stockwise Professional tier includes access to 2 products. You can combine Stockwise (inventory) with Operon (job management) for a total of $80 AUD/month including 5 users. Cin7 requires a separate vendor like ServiceM8 ($79/month) for job management, bringing total cost to approximately $620+ AUD/month. This saves you $540/month ($6,480/year).
Key differences:
- Cost: Stockwise costs 91% less - $50 AUD vs $541 AUD/month at entry level
- Order Volume: Stockwise offers 2× capacity - 12,000/year vs 6,000/year
- B2B Portal: Included in Stockwise, extra charge for Cin7
- Currency: Stockwise bills in AUD, Cin7 USD only
- Platform: Stockwise is multi-product (inventory + jobs + B2B), Cin7 focuses on inventory only
