Sage X3 B2B eCommerce – Perfect for Complex Custom Orders

July 6, 2021

If you’re a B2B company on Sage X3 looking for a new eCommerce platform, or to migrate to a new web platform, you might want to consider the advantages of Magento B2B eCommerce. You may have found a lot of conflicting information online about whether Magento or Adobe Commerce is a good fit for B2B companies.

After all, B2B sales are often more complicated than B2C sales. B2B customers often negotiate special pricing, or may need access to a completely different set of inventory compared to other customers There’s no way that an eCommerce site could easily handle all these different B2B orders, is there?

There is. With the right ERP eCommerce integration, Magento Open Source makes B2B eCommerce easy.

Magento B2B Extension for Sage X3

Compared to other popular eCommerce platforms like Shopify, BigCommerce, or WooCommerce, Magento is more customizable. You can build your Magento webstore into anything you want. You aren’t limited to pre-build templates or pages.

Even better, Magento can handle an unlimited number of product listings. That’s great for B2B. Your company may offer a huge number of specialized products, and Magento will be able to handle it, no problem. It’s also helpful for setting up custom B2B portals for your clients, since you don’t have to worry about having a limited number of product listings. Their user friendly interface simplifies the ordering process for B2B clients. Magento includes advanced SEO capabilities, which makes it easier for customers to find your site and improves marketing and promotion. This boosts your online presence. Magento also has multi-currency and language options to give you a global reach.

Integrating Magento with Sage X3 makes it even better. A Magento B2B extension that integrates with Sage X3 extends the functionality of your ERP into your Magento B2B Commerce store.
