MyCost is built around reseller stock, locations, sales and true profit. A spreadsheet is still a good choice if you enjoy maintaining your own system.

| Area | Option 1 | Option 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Getting started | Build your own columns | Reseller fields ready |
| Stock locations | Manual | Built in |
| Sales/profit | Manual formulas/imports | One workflow |
| Best fit | DIY spreadsheet users | Resellers wanting less admin |
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.
