| Area | Option 1 | Option 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Orders | Copy/import yourself | Supported connection/import workflow |
| Fees | Manual formulas | Tracked in seller workflow |
| Inventory | Separate sheet logic | Linked item records |
| Best for | Custom analysis | Day-to-day operations |
Use the simplest system that you will actually keep up to date. If a spreadsheet still takes seconds to maintain, keep it. If you are spending evenings copying sales, finding stock or repairing formulas, the saved time from a dedicated workflow starts to matter.
Do not buy software because it has the longest feature list. Choose it because it removes a repeated problem you already have.
