We Live Distribution Daily

No one else that builds ERP / Accounting software is also running their software in their own brick and mortar stores and warehouse every day.

Fighting part numbers?

Customer numbers. Vendor numbers. Barcodes. Internal SKUs. When they don’t align, orders get delayed or shipped wrong. ALOX4® links every identifier to one clean item record so everything matches the first time.

Always looking up special pricing for a customer?

Reps checking spreadsheets or “asking accounting.” Every manual override risks margin leakage. Pricing rules apply automatically, by customer, group, or quantity, so margins stay protected.

Who touched this order?

Shared logins. Mystery edits. No clear accountability. When something goes wrong, no one owns it. Every action is tied to a real user, with unlimited seats so accountability never costs extra.

Quotes taking forever?

“Let me check on that.” Slow quotes lose deals and frustrate customers. Customer pricing, history, and rules are already there, so reps can quote immediately.

Is your warehouse a mess?

Inventory in the system doesn’t match what’s on the shelf. Counts take too long and trust erodes. Zone-based inventory keeps counts clean and organized, without fragile scanner ecosystems.

Need Full Cloud?

Available wherever you are, on any device you have. No babysitting a server in the back room. No install hassles.

Are you a good fit for ALOX4®?

The worst software tries to be everything to everybody. We're going to make your day easier by telling some of you right away that ALOX4® is not for you.

Are you a one person business knitting funky caps and selling them on Etsy? Cool, you should definitely head over to QuickBooks or Xero immediately. Tell 'em we sent you.

Do you own a multi-national chain store, with 280 locations spread across multiple countries? Well dang, very impressive! Probably a good bet the boys from SAP or PeopleSoft are already in a jet and flying in your direction.

Own a restaurant? Delicious! Sorry, ALOX4® tech is not for you, hit up the folks at Toast or Square. They'll cook up a solution for you.

Are you Ford Motor Co, or John Deere Tractor Inc, or Harley Davidson USA? Ok, if your gig is world-wide manufacturing plants, pass on ALOX4® and call up IBM and have them get Watson on the case. Get out the big iron, a real mainframe is what you need. Queue the suits!

ALOX4 is designed for companies that:

  • have 1 to 40 stores
  • have 100 to 80,000 SKUs
  • have front counter sales
  • focus on in-person sales
  • order by pallet or container

Sound like you? Awesome!

When does 40 years of heritage become a liability?

Lots of business software, at its core, is decades old. They've re-skinned it with a fresh interface, maybe even a web portal, but the underlying design decisions they made back in the 80s are all still there. The computer ecosystem had such different constraints back then. Their decisions made perfect sense at the time but are super frustrating to work around now.

Sometimes the best thing to do is to burn it to the ground and start over. No one is thinking SpaceX should go scavenge some old pieces from the 1969 lunar lander. No one is thinking "Now that we have 3D printing, we can finally build that carburetor we always wanted."

It's common sense that you would design things differently in a world where your phone is 1000 times faster than a Cray-2 Supercomputer from 1985. Don't get stuck trying to add self-driving capabilities to your steam-powered car.

A Fresh Approach

Your system may perfectly functional... but has a few things users hate about it. That's probably where you are right now. "It works, but..." And unfortunately, those "hate-points" are often so baked in to the core of how the software is constructed, there's no way the company could fix them even if they wanted to. ALOX4® started with decades of experience using systems like this and from the ground up, it's designed to avoid the "hate-points" we've had to scream about over the years.

Real Commerce

Most of "real commerce" isn't sitting at glass desks on the 50th floor gathering around a virtual whiteboard. It's in the warehouse, the sales floor, the shipping, the special orders, the customer relations.
