OrderEase vs. Standalone Portals

 Operations Need a System. Not Another Login.

Evaluating standalone customer portals for B2B orders?

Standalone portals collect orders, they don’t run order operations. OrderEase centralizes orders into a single workflow where rules, validation, and logic are applied before the order hits your ERP. If your goal is clean ERP data, fewer exceptions, and operations teams that can scale without adding headcount, it's time for OrderEase.

How OrderEase Compares to Standalone B2B Portals

OrderEase includes a full B2B customer portal as part of the core platform. It can be used on its own for customer self-service ordering, or as one channel within a broader order workflow. In standalone use, the portal supports account-based pricing, product availability, order history, and controlled access. When combined with OrderEase workflows and integrations, those same orders can be validated, routed, and synchronized alongside EDI, eCommerce, and rep-submitted orders.
