Channeldock alternative: when Stockpilot might be a better fit

Channeldock is a solid inventory and order management platform, popular among Dutch e-commerce sellers. If you're evaluating options, here's an honest comparison.

The core: both do this well

Let's be clear—both Channeldock and Stockpilot handle the fundamentals:

Multi-channel stock synchronization. Real-time inventory updates across marketplaces and webshops. Order processing with shipping labels. Purchase order management. Reorder advice. Multi-warehouse support. Scanner apps. Shipping rules.

If you need a system to manage inventory and orders across sales channels, both platforms deliver. The differences are in what each adds on top.

What makes Channeldock different

Fulfillment center network. Channeldock built a marketplace connecting sellers with fulfillment centers. If you want to find and onboard fulfillment partners through the platform itself, this is a real feature.

FiveX integration. Same ownership means tight integration with FiveX for advertising analytics on Amazon and bol.com. Inventory data connected to ad performance, campaign optimization—one ecosystem.

Free tier to start. Up to 500 orders per month free. Note the limits: max 1,000 SKUs, 3 integrations, no employee accounts, no custom API access. Good for testing.

What makes Stockpilot different

Order Flow. Automatic order forwarding from any sales channel to your fulfillment setup—Picqer, Odoo, Monta, Amazon MCF, 3PL, or custom via API/Zapier. Fulfillment status and inventory sync back real-time. One flow, any destination.

B2B portal. Built-in wholesale platform where your B2B customers log in, browse your catalog, see their price lists, and place orders. Custom domain, your branding, synced with inventory.

Flat pricing, unlimited integrations. Connect as many sales channels, carriers, and systems as you need. No per-connection fees, no API limits, no surprise costs as you grow.

Choosing between them

Both platforms work well for multi-channel e-commerce. The question is which extras matter to you.

Channeldock adds a fulfillment partner marketplace and FiveX advertising analytics. If you're looking for fulfillment centers through the platform or want inventory tied to ad optimization in one ecosystem, that's valuable.

Stockpilot adds flexible order routing to any system, a B2B wholesale portal, and predictable pricing regardless of how many integrations you use. If you want to connect your own stack or offer wholesale alongside retail, that's our focus.

Try both

Both offer trials. The best way to decide is testing with your actual workflow. Channeldock is strong software—if their fulfillment network and FiveX integration fit your needs, go for it. If Order Flow and B2B matter more, give Stockpilot a look.
