Unify Sage X3 and Epicor P21: Powering Seamless Enterprise Operations

Break down data silos between your Sage X3 and Epicor P21 ERPs with a modern iPaaS. Automate core business processes, achieve real-time data synchronization, and drive unparalleled operational efficiency.

The Challenge

The Challenge: Bridging Disconnected Sage X3 and Epicor P21 Environments

Operating Sage X3 and Epicor P21 in isolation creates a fragmented enterprise landscape. Manual data transfers, inconsistent information, and delayed processes hinder agility, increase operational costs, and obscure a true 360-degree view of your business.

  • Manual Data Entry & Duplication: Tedious, error-prone manual input of sales orders, invoices, or inventory adjustments between systems.
  • Delayed Business Processes: Slow order fulfillment, extended financial close cycles, and inefficient procurement due to disconnected data.
  • Inconsistent Master Data: Customer, vendor, and product information varies between Sage X3 and P21, leading to reporting inaccuracies and operational conflicts.
  • Lack of Real-time Visibility: Inability to access up-to-the-minute inventory levels, sales performance, or financial status across both ERPs.
  • High Operational Costs: Increased labor costs associated with reconciliation, error correction, and managing disparate systems.
  • Compliance & Audit Risks: Difficulty in maintaining a clear audit trail and ensuring data integrity across complex, unintegrated workflows.
