The Basic Edition is used in settings where each item in inventory is managed.  
Each tool is either available, in use, or out of service.  With the Basic Edition
you'll know where each tool is, and you'll know all the tools in use by a
particular tool user.
You're concerned only with tracking each durable tool in your inventory
Consider the Basic Edition when...
You don't need reorder alerts and order/receipt tracking
The Standard Edition is our "classic" tool crib manager, used in settings where
the
quantity of each item in inventory is managed.  For each tool, some quantity
is available, some may have been issued to tool users and some may be out of
service.  With the Standard Edition, you'll know which tool users have some of a
tool, and all tools issued to but not yet returned from a particular tool user.
Consider the Standard Edition when...
You want to manage both durable tools and consumables
You want to be alerted when an item may be due for reorder

The Bar Code Edition adds bar code scanning to the capabilities of the
Standard Edition.  Consider this edition when scanning items' and tool users'
bar codes instead of selecting from lists would have a productivity impact on
your operation.

The Contractor Standard Edition offers all the capabilities of the Standard
Edition but handles consumable items differently.  In the Standard Edition,
some quantity of a consumable item is expended at the time it leaves the crib
or store.  In the Contractor Editions, some quantity of a consumable item is
issued, just like a durable item, and is reported as having been issued to a tool
user.  When the job is complete, any quantity not returned is expended.
