Move off your old system one module at a time

Start with the module that hurts most. Stockwell runs alongside Prophet 21, Eclipse or SX.e until your team is ready to switch, and your accounting stays where it is.

Compose the ERP your operation needs.

Start with any module. Every one shares the same live record, so you add the rest when you’re ready and nothing gets rebuilt.

Frequently asked questions.

Something else on your mind? Ask our team.

Can each contractor have their own pricing?

Yes. Price lists sit on the product record, by customer, and are checked on every order line.

Which systems can we move off?

Most distributors run Stockwell alongside Prophet 21, Eclipse, SX.e or a homegrown system, and move over one module at a time.

Do we have to replace QuickBooks?

No. Stockwell runs the operation and posts to the accounting system you already keep, whether that’s QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage or Dynamics.
