Why Do You Need a B2B e-Commerce Solution?

Why does it matter for you? According to recent surveys, distributors and manufacturers that use Sage ERP implemented a B2B e-Commerce Solutions that allows their customers to order using mobile solutions.

If you’re using Sage 100 ERP and Sage 500 ERP then you’ll notice that E-Commerce is gaining ground among the community of manufacturers and distributors.
