Do I have to drop TeamFirst to use CRMconnect?

No. CRMconnect works next to your existing ERP. TeamFirst keeps accounting, production, SAF-T and payroll. CRMconnect takes over sales, orders, EDI and B2B portals.

Can CRMconnect connect to TeamFirst?

Yes. The link already runs over EDI, in production, in the Good2Go project, a network of 70 stores expanding towards about 300 over the next 2-3 years. For other flows, through the CRMconnect API or files. Which data moves, and in which direction, is defined in the project.

What is the difference between an ERP and an operations platform?

The ERP is the system of record: accounting, production, tax reporting. The operations platform is where daily work happens: quotes, multi-channel orders, warehouse, EDI with retail chains and partner portals. Final documents end up in the ERP.

TeamFirst suits companies that want one ERP, with production and payroll, from a single vendor. CRMconnect suits companies that sell on several channels, trade with retail chains over EDI or run networks of distributors and suppliers. Many distribution companies need both.

How long does implementation take?

For TeamFirst, their website states 1-3, 3-6 or 6-12 months, depending on complexity. CRMconnect starts from a few days; with full ERP integration it takes 4-6 weeks. Go-live is followed by a 15, 30 or 45-day hypercare period.

What happens to invoicing and e-Factura?

Both send invoices to e-Factura. When you use them together, the project decides where the invoice is issued: in the ERP, or in CRMconnect with the document then sent to the ERP. What each package includes is on the pricing page.

What does a CEO gain by adding CRMconnect next to TeamFirst?

Faster results without changing the ERP: CRMconnect starts from a few days, 4-6 weeks with full ERP integration. The Good2Go project already works this way, over EDI, with 70 stores and expansion towards about 300 over the next 2-3 years.

What does the sales team get in CRMconnect?

Pipeline and quotes, multi-channel orders in one flow, a B2B portal for distributors, EDI with retail chains and a mobile app for sales reps. Confirmed orders then reach the ERP.

Where do accounting and SAF-T stay if we use both?

In TeamFirst. CRMconnect does not do SAF-T at the moment; it sends matched orders, deliveries, invoices and payments to the ERP. CRMconnect pricing is public on the pricing page, with a no-card trial.

How does CRMconnect connect to other systems?

Through a public REST API, webhooks and an MCP connector for ChatGPT and Claude, over EDI (AS2, EDIFACT) or through files. Custom modules can also be developed on the platform.
