Automate your online store yourself or become an eSellerPro customer

At a certain stage in the development of an online store, its owner is faced with the problem of back office automation. This may include the implementation of ERP (usually 1C: Enterprise in Russia), installation of software for managing marketing tools, development of a solution for managing product content. You can list for a long time.

In this article I want to review the multi-platform eSellerPro , designed for the comprehensive automation of the back office of online stores.

The eSellerPro platform was created by Sandbourne Systems Ltd in 2006 and experienced exponential growth. The company employs 60 people, an annual turnover of 200 million pounds. In September 2010, the company received investments from the Notion Capital venture capital fund.

eSellerPro is a complete ERP solution for e-commerce, including warehouse automation, content management, financial instruments, mailing list management, tools for interacting with customers and billing. The platform also provides additional sales channels such as eBay and Amazon.

Consider the main features of the platform.

1. Warehouse management


You can manage stock balances by distributing them to the necessary sales channels, such as eBay, Amazon, Play, Pixmania, PriceMinister. If a product was purchased at one site, it is automatically removed from the rest.
There is an opportunity to regulate the maximum and minimum quantity of goods available on this or that trading platform. This helps the online store not to accept orders for goods already sold and, as a result, to protect itself from negative feedback from dissatisfied customers.

The following functionality is provided:
