Frequently Asked Questions

When does an ERP become worthwhile for e-commerce merchants?

A lean ERP is worth it for your online business once you reach about 30 to 50 orders per month. It is definitely recommended once you start using multiple sales channels or find yourself managing orders, inventory, and shipping processes manually.

What is the best ERP for small and medium-sized e-commerce merchants?

Billbee is a lean ERP specifically designed for small and medium-sized e-commerce merchants (up to 10,000 orders). Many other ERP solutions include features that smaller and medium-sized merchants often do not need.

What features should an e-commerce ERP have?

A good e-commerce ERP handles recurring tasks for you and keeps your operations organized. This includes order processing, product and inventory management, invoices, credit notes and delivery notes, shipping and shipping labels, automated workflows, returns management, as well as reporting and analytics. The ERP should also be able to connect to any number of shops, marketplaces, payment providers, and shipping carriers, offer an API interface, support any number of users, and be cloud-based.

What role do my sales channels play in choosing the right ERP?

You should definitely ensure that the ERP has a reliable interface for your specific sales channels. Billbee, Xentral, PlentyONE, weclapp, and JTL all have interfaces for common shop systems and marketplaces. The difference: some providers charge extra for additional interfaces. You should take this into account beforehand to avoid unexpected costs.
