Archive note: This post preserves the transcript from Ordoro’s first product introduction in July 2010. The platform has grown considerably since then, but the transcript offers a look at the operational problems Ordoro was originally built to solve.
In 2010, we created a short introduction explaining how Ordoro helped online merchants bring several everyday eCommerce tasks into one system.
At the time, we helped merchants import orders from their shopping carts, print packing lists and shipping labels, receive tracking numbers, manage purchase orders, receive inventory, and update stock quantities.
The Original Ordoro Workflow
The first version focused on connecting several parts of an eCommerce operation.
Merchants could:
- Import orders from their online stores
- Print packing lists
- Create shipping labels
- Receive tracking numbers
- Issue purchase orders
- Receive inventory from suppliers
- Update stock quantities in their storefronts
Those early capabilities created the foundation for Ordoro’s broader shipping, inventory, order management, and fulfillment platform.
Solving the Same Core Problems
The tools have changed since 2010, but the problems behind them remain familiar.
eCommerce merchants still need to keep inventory accurate, process orders efficiently, choose shipping services, communicate tracking information, and coordinate purchasing and fulfillment. These workflows become more difficult as a business adds sales channels, warehouses, suppliers, products, and order volume.
Ordoro has continued building around those operational needs.
How Have We Grown
Today, Ordoro supports merchants managing more sales channels, carriers, warehouses, suppliers, products, and fulfillment workflows.
The platform includes tools for multichannel inventory management, shipping rate comparison, batch label creation, purchase orders, kitting and bundles, dropshipping, automation rules, and multiwarehouse operations.
The original goal remains the same: help eCommerce businesses spend less time moving information between disconnected systems and more time running their operation.
How Ordoro Looks Like Today
The platform has developed significantly since then, but its focus on simplifying eCommerce operations has remained consistent.
