Better business intelligence

With Power BI business analytics you can create interactive visualizations and valuable business insights in real time. You don’t need technical expertise thanks to its user-friendly interface. You can also combine it with other applications for even more powerful analytics to support data-driven decisions and drive growth.

Stronger customer relationships

You can benefit from the power of market leading customer relationship management (CRM) tools like Microsoft Dynamics CRM. You’ll outshine your competitors from day one. Streamlined order processing, high quality sales leads and outstanding on-boarding processes for new customers are just the beginning. Alternatively, you might want to improve efficiency with full suite CRM, supply chain management and financial integration from Arvato.

Enhanced product catalogs

There’s no need for data silos and overnight synchronization of product information with Akeneo. This popular open-source product information management (PIM) system takes the pain out of centralizing and managing your product data. You can showcase high quality and useful product content to increase online sales.

Improved procurement

You can become part of the procurement solution for your larger customers with PunchOut catalogs inside their own purchasing systems. Buyers can browse your range and choose your products, ready to place orders when internal approvals are complete. With SAP Ariba you can also provide electronic data interchange (EDI) and automate faster and more efficient processes.

Extra payment options

Your customers will each have their payment preferences. You can meet them with world-leading options like Opayo (formerly Sage Pay), Visa’s Authorize.net or PayPal, for example. Your customers can easily complete their online transactions without clumsy redirections to external payment pages. You can securely accept multiple currencies, debit and credit cards and digital wallets and have reliable analytics. There are even tools to help you meet your tax, regulatory and compliance requirements.

Simplified order processing

Centralized inventory management and improved order visibility with tools like Fluent Commerce or Redledge improve customer experiences. Realtime inventory visibility and automation help maintain stocks and keep customers informed, even when you have multiple warehouses.

Streamlined Deliveries

Streamlined deliveries

If the details aren’t correct at checkout your deliveries could go astray. Accurate information about your customers’ shipping, billing and contact information simplifies fulfillment and increases customer satisfaction. With data8 validation tools addresses, bank details, phone numbers and email addresses can all be verified. You can also reduce abandoned sales with ShipperHQ to confirm delivery options and costs in real time. You’ll also have a better understanding of carrier performance, costs, and customer preferences. Integration with third party logistics providers (3PLs) like EC Group or UPS will help to speed up deliveries with improved order processing and data synchronization. Less manual data entry reduces errors and you can easily meet increased customer demand.
