Shopware is really on the rise in our country. One of the reasons why many e-commerce companies choose Shopware 6 is because you can easily link it to other software.
By intelligently linking software, you create one large digital platform, as it were, in which all software can communicate with each other and exchange data. This may sound a bit abstract, so below we give you a number of concrete examples of popular software connections with Shopware 6
Administration and accounting software
Administration and accounting: a hobby of few entrepreneurs. Fortunately, nowadays there is software that takes a lot of work off your hands. For example, by linking Shopware to your administration and accounting software, you can ensure that orders are immediately included in your administration. This not only saves you a lot of manual work and headaches, it also ensures that the margin of error remains low. Examples of commonly used software packages in the field of administration and accounting include Exact and AFAS.
Logistics software
Another common connection is the connection between Shopware and logistics software. Especially when your webshop and therefore your warehouse is getting bigger, it is almost impossible to ignore this software. Good logistics software calculates the shortest walking routes for order pickers, keeps an eye on your stock (and automatically replenishes it if necessary) and creates shipping labels and invoices at the touch of a button. Picqer and Sherpan are good examples of very complete logistics software packages.
CRM and ERP software
CRM and ERP systems can also be easily linked to Shopware 6. CRM packages help you manage customer data and support your sales management. Salesforce is an example of a widely used CRM system that is often linked to web shops. ERP systems are also often linked to Shopware to ensure that logistics, financial and administration processes run smoothly.
