8 Reviews 5/5 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★An apparel and footwear ERP for wholesale and consumer brands that handles styles, sizes, and colorways with a built in PLM, EDI, and B2B portal.
Product Overview
Sync is a cloud ERP, PLM, and B2B wholesale platform built specifically for apparel and footwear brands. It offers an all-in-one system for managing design and product development, sourcing, inventory and warehousing, EDI, and eCommerce fulfillment. It supports over 300 fashion brands globally and comes pre-built with an understanding of styles, colors, sizes, seasons, and packaging, without customization.
Sync distinguishes itself through native EDI support, eliminating a brand’s reliance on third-party software such as SPSCommerce and True Commerce. It also comes with a wholesale B2B portal for retailers and reps to browse linesheets and place their own orders.
Sync serves as the apparel operations layer and runs alongside your finance system, integrating with QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, SAP, and NetSuite, among others. It also connects with AI for natural-language reporting and prebuilt AI agents for inventory, sales, procurement, and production.

- Native EDI support without middleware
- Built-in B2B wholesale portal for online catalogs, ordering, and linesheets

Target Market
Apparel, footwear, and accessories brands with roughly $2M to $300M in revenue that need EDI, product design, warehousing, and fulfillment in one system. Works whether you fulfill from your own warehouse, a 3PL, or both.Not Recommended For
Business outside of apparel and footwear. Retail first operations with complex POS needs or early-stage businesses without wholesale or EDI requirements.Why Choose Sync Software?
Most apparel brands assemble their tech stack piece by piece: a general-purpose ERP, EDI middleware, a standalone B2B portal, a PLM tool, and the integrations that hold them together. Each system is another subscription, another piece of software, and another place where style, size, and color data can change. Sync removes that complexity by providing the apparel-specific tools natively, in one subscription.
Key Features
PLM and Product Design
- Style records carry colorways, size ranges, seasons, revisions, and every linked component.
- Tech packs are built from reusable templates and library components, with points of measure, grading rules, tolerances, and sample measurements captured round by round.
- Bills of materials cost out as the style develops, with variant costing by colorway and margin projection against target pricing.
EDI
- Transaction sets cover 850, 855, 856, 810, 860, 846, 753, and 754, sent over X12, EDIFACT, AS2, SFTP, or VAN.
- Retailer purchase orders land directly on a Sync sales order, and acknowledgments, shipping notices, and invoices go back out against the actual shipment.
- Trading partner setup is handled by iSync, which maps each retailer to its exact spec, including ASNs and UCC-128 labels.
B2B Wholesale
- Sync Showroom gives retailers and reps a branded portal with digital line sheets, story pages, and curated catalogs built per buyer.
- Available-to-sell is visible in real time by style, color, and size, alongside future availability and work in progress.
- Orders are placed against a size and color matrix and go straight into a sales order without re-entry.
Apparel Inventory
- On-hand and available stock are tracked across the full size and color matrix, with owned warehouses and connected 3PLs combined into a single position.
- Channel allocation distributes limited stock across wholesale, direct-to-consumer, and retail by priority.
- Pre-season availability lets brands sell forward seasons against future stock, with reorder and over-buy flags built in.
Sourcing and Procurement
- Purchase orders track factories and work in progress against every style and color.
- Material requirements are checked against purchase orders already placed, so shortfalls surface before fabric is cut.
- Landed duty costing carries freight and duty into each style’s cost, reconciled against the costed bill of materials from development.
Seasonal and Line Planning
- Seasonal plans are built by category, delivery window, price band, and channel, comparing the plan with the styles actually adopted.
- Size scales, prepacks, and assortments are defined once, including market-specific labeling, and carry through to buying and selling.
- Critical path templates set milestone dates per style with owners and dependencies, shifting downstream dates when one slips and flagging late work before delivery is at risk.
Warehousing
- Android handheld scanners replace printed pick sheets on the floor, with no proprietary hardware required.
- Receiving and put-away scan against the purchase order to catch shortfalls at the dock, then direct stock to locations and top up pick locations as they draw down.
- Pick waves group orders by channel, carrier, or retailer with route sequencing, and scan-based packing validates carton contents before SSCC or UCC-128 labels print.
Sync AI
- An MCP server connects live ERP data to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok for plain-language questions, with answers traced back to source records under each user’s permissions.
- Seven Sync AI Agents cover inventory, sales, finance, production, raw materials, customer service, and the warehouse.
- Recurring checks flag dead stock, aging receivables, material shortfalls, and critical path slippage.
Integrations
- Shopify
- NuOrder
- Joor
- Brandboom
- QuickBooks
- NetSuite
- Sage
- 140+ more

Sync is incredibly efficient. With our old systems, there were 6–8 touches per order which included a lot of manual copy/pasting from one system to another. Sync handles 95% of this, freeing up our time to focus on more value adding activities
