## Quick answers

**Who is Inventorious for?**

It suits retail shops, wholesalers, cafes, pharmacies and electronics stores, from one counter to several branches. It is built around physical stock, so firms that only sell services will find much of it unnecessary.

**Which modules are included?**

Seven areas: point of sale, inventory and barcodes, sales, purchases and returns, reports, HRM and payroll, online store, and multi-warehouse with roles. Some modules, such as the online store and report downloads, depend on the plan you choose.

**Which languages are supported?**

The interface is available in English, Spanish and Arabic, and Arabic uses a full right-to-left layout. Administrators can edit translations and add more languages from the settings.
