Our verdict on Distribution One
Distribution One is an ERP platform for wholesalers and distributors that brings order management, inventory, purchasing, warehouse operations, financial management, CRM, reporting, ecommerce, and mobile applications into one product. It is aimed at established distribution companies managing multiple warehouses, sales channels, replenishment workflows, delivery confirmation, kitting, or traceability. Advantive positions it for industries including industrial supply, fasteners, food service, packaging, HVAC, and retail fulfillment.
Pricing follows a contact-sales model rather than published plan tiers. The product’s scope centers on operational breadth: multi-warehouse and multi-channel order management, inventory control, automated replenishment, purchasing, accounts payable, invoicing, billing, sales pipelines, customer management, and reporting. Wireless warehouse management and RF scanning support warehouse workflows, while serial and lot tracking address traceability requirements. Kitting and assembly management add support for distributors that prepare bundled or assembled products. This breadth suits organizations replacing disconnected systems, but it may be more than a smaller distributor needs if its requirements are limited to inventory or order entry.
Distribution One also fits businesses that need connections beyond core ERP functions. Listed integrations cover ecommerce, credit card processing, Amazon, shipping, sales tax compliance, EDI, API connectivity, and SFP-AP. Supplemental mobile applications support delivery management and signature capture, with web and iOS platforms listed. Established wholesale distributors should consider it when purchasing, warehouse, delivery, finance, CRM, and inventory processes need to work together. A narrower distribution tool may be a better choice for teams seeking a simpler system focused on one operational area.
