Find your easy EDI integration solution

Traditionally, there are two routes to EDI compliance: feature-limited solutions, such as those offered by SPS Commerce, or extensive solutions with more capabilities than needed.

OpenText™ offers what others cannot—a better choice. Unlike SPS and other competitors, OpenText offers an easy EDI integration solution to fit the unique needs of every size company. When it comes to EDI services, OpenText is the only future-proof choice that scales globally.

Business impacts

  • Increased visibility and insight

    Retail organizations need transparency to verify their data is correct. However, SPS Fulfillment Tracker is unable to combine analytics with EDI. Leverage best-in-class visibility tools to drive continuous benefit.

  • Customized solutions

    Companies need scalable, flexible EDI compliance solutions. SPS has basic catalog and analytics-based products and cookie-cutter connectors. Get full-suite EDI integration solutions to improve accuracy, digitize transactions, and automate processes.

  • Responsive customer support

    Organizations need customer support for their unique concerns. With a shared-service model and few EDI experts, SPS lacks the expertise and bandwidth for full-service support. Get superior customer support that keeps business running.

  • Support high growth

    Organizations need to grow globally. However, SPS struggles to support international expansion and enterprise-level complexity. Switch to an EDI provider with the largest global network for international support and scalability.

Key benefits

A global company with global support, OpenText is more than just a retail EDI network. It stands above SPS with the visibility, customer support and flexibility to meet any B2B and EDI integration need.
