Trust inventory. Ditch spreadsheets. ERP Built for Industrial Distributors Who Actually Move Product [ Instant Preview Video ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGIb4U68hJw&target=_blank) [ Schedule a Demo ](https://alox4.online/#demo) Before ALOX4, things were disorganized... missing packing slips, inconsistent documents, confusion everywhere. ALOX4 created a clear operational flow. You can see exactly what’s fulfilled, invoiced, or still open. Kenneth Damiao - CEO LRKD Industries Inc - Deer Park, NY I can be in an airport, in a car, or standing at the counter and still run the business. John Fisher - CEO Siena Fastener Inc - Urbandale, IA \[ALOX4\] exceeded my expectations. It has far more functionality than I even need. Eric Wages - CEO Idealem Solutions Group - Boston, MA ## 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](https://etsy.com)? Cool, you should definitely head over to [QuickBooks](https://quickbooks.com) or [Xero](https://xero.com) 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](https://sap.com) or [PeopleSoft](https://www.oracle.com/applications/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](https://toast.com) or [Square](https://squareup.com). 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](https://ibm.com) 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! [Contact Us](https://alox4.online/company/contact) ## 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. [Contact Us](https://alox4.online/company/contact) ## 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. ### PDFs everywhere ### No Install ### Users & Roles ### Flexible Taxonomies ### Intuitive UI ### Customizable ### Inventory ### Receipts with your Logo ### Reports ### Real Human Support ### Responsive Design ### Free Ice Cream It's cool software and we like to show off ## Schedule a demo ## 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.
