Order Management Systems
Centralized order processing, fulfillment tracking, and customer communication in one operational platform.
For: Operations processing 100+ orders per day across multiple channels, requiring real-time inventory sync and automated fulfillment workflows.
Not for: Businesses processing fewer than 50 orders per week, or operations that can manage orders effectively with spreadsheets and email.
Operational Problems This Solves
Orders scattered across email, phone, website, and marketplaces with no unified view
Manual order entry leads to errors, duplicate orders, and inventory discrepancies
No real-time visibility into order status, fulfillment progress, or shipping updates
Customer service cannot answer order questions without checking multiple systems
Fulfillment team lacks automated workflows for picking, packing, and shipping
When This Platform Is Required
Processing more than 100 orders per day across multiple sales channels
Inventory must sync in real-time with order processing to prevent overselling
Multiple fulfillment locations or warehouses require coordinated order routing
Custom order workflows (bundles, subscriptions, pre-orders) that generic systems cannot handle
Integration with existing ERP, accounting, or shipping systems is mandatory
Order data must feed into business intelligence or reporting platforms
