Why Use Product Variants?

Product variants are essential for businesses managing inventory across various product options, especially in rental and resale operations. Product variants help you:

• Track inventory accurately across different versions of the same product
• Offer customers more options while maintaining an organized inventory
• Streamline operations by grouping related products
• Generate detailed analytics on variant performance
