B2B Shop Development
Why is this B2B-Suite the Right Choice for Your Business?
The module stands out for three important aspects:
Wide Range of Features
As proven by experiences in recent years, the B2B-suite covers more than 98% of all B2B requirements. The platform is modular and can be customized to fit your company’s needs.
Fast Implementation
The implementation of the modules is quick and easy. Since most functions are already pre-configured for the most common B2B requirements, it is possible to integrate the B2B-suite into your shop in the shortest possible time. After installation, only individual adjustments need to be made, the majority is already correctly set up. This approach usually allows the B2B-suite to be put into operation within a few months.
Integration with Existing Systems
Regardless of the systems you already have in place, we can seamlessly integrate the B2B functions into your existing IT infrastructure. For example, it is possible to connect the B2B-suite with virtually any ERP system. There is a middleware that enables communication between the two systems and is pre-configured for many systems.
Product Details
Premium Product Presentation
For Business-to-Business (B2B) shops, the presentation of products is of utmost importance. This is why there is a big focus on the product presentation in the B2B-suite. The following points are just a few of the many possibilities:
Customized Search
The search function can be pre-configured individually for each customer, allowing certain parameters to weigh more heavily in the search. For example, some customers may prefer searching by SKU, while others may prefer searching by name. The flexibility here knows no bounds.
Packaging Units
It is possible to offer products in different packaging units. For instance, you can offer an item in a packaging unit of 10 pieces or in a packaging unit of 100 pieces. Customers can then choose the packaging unit they want and see the corresponding price.
Product Symbols
The B2B-suite allows you to label products with various symbols, such as for hazardous materials, organic, vegan, etc. This allows customers to quickly and easily identify products that meet their criteria.
Personalized Shopping Experience
Customer-Specific Prices
Individual prices and tiered prices can be set for each customer. These can be dynamically retrieved in real-time from any ERP system, ensuring that the customer always sees the current price. This is an easy and efficient way to provide a personalized shopping experience.
Customer-Specific Assortments
It’s possible to create a unique product catalog for each customer. This way, the customer sees only the products that are relevant to them, allowing them to focus on what matters.
Customer-Specific Article Numbers
Individual article numbers can be set for each customer per product. These can be imported by the customer in various ways, eliminating any work for the shop operator. This feature is especially useful for customers who already use their own article numbering and want to use it when making purchases.
B2B Ordering Functions
There is a variety of ordering options that go beyond the typical checkout of an online shop.
Ordering via Scanner
It is possible to place orders using a scanner. The customer simply scans the items they want to order, and the order is automatically created in the system. This is particularly useful for customers who order a large number of items and would find the traditional method time-consuming.
Ordering via IoT
Another highlight is the ability to place orders via IoT devices. For example, a tool dispensing system can be equipped with IoT functions, so that it is automatically recognized when a tool is running low. The corresponding tool is then reordered directly. This feature is a real game-changer in our eyes, and we are not aware of any alternative platform that offers this.
Monthly Order Budgets for Companies
For larger companies, it is often interesting to set monthly order budgets for employees. This allows adherence to a predetermined budget plan, ensuring it is not exceeded.
Convenient Checkout
Customer-Specific Payment and Shipping Methods
Individual payment and shipping methods can be set for each customer. This allows for individual configuration, ensuring that the customer sees only the payment and shipping methods they can use.
Quotation Functionality
The customer can request a quote for their shopping cart. This quote can then be created by the shop operator and provided to the customer. This facilitates easy and direct communication between the customer and shop operator without the need for additional systems.
24/7 Customer Service Portal
Overview of All Orders
Unlike in the B2C sector, where the customer typically orders for themselves, in the B2B sector, it is common for multiple individuals to place orders for a company. Therefore, there is a detailed overview of all company orders, regardless of which employee made them. In this overview, backlogs, delivery dates, and returns can also be viewed.
Independent Management of Users and User Roles
Customers can independently manage users and their roles within a company. This saves the shop operator a lot of work and allows the customer to autonomously manage and adjust user roles. Roles can be detailed as needed, allowing for the representation of virtually any company structure.
