The Netfira Pricing Model
Netfira's pricing advantage
Traditional supply chain software installations can take months to implement, and pricing can run into the millions of dollars. This is due to expensive enterprise software licensing fees and consulting prices for implementation. Netfira has removed the pain of long software implementations so customers can be up and running within days. Our products are very easy to install and our software pricing model is fundamentally different from traditional software licensing since it is a consumption mode. That means it eliminates the typical high upfront investment needed for packaged software licensing and implementation.
NetfiraSeller runs as a web service that easily integrates with the sellers’ back office systems (ERP, accounting, and inventory etc.). Only a small access module that communicates with the Netfira web service is installed on the sellers’ systems and there is no upfront cost to the seller to use the software. The seller invites and authorizes buyers to make purchases, and then configures each buyer’s access to their data (e.g. inventory and buyer specific pricing). Netfira then charges the sellers per order transaction. Sellers can either pay per transaction, or buy bulk transactions at a discount. For high volume sellers Netfira also offers enterprise licenses at a fixed monthly or quarterly subscription fee.
NetfiraBuyer is a free software download for all dealers and distributors who use Netfira to make their purchases. The download and installation takes only minutes, and the software can be used immediately since it automatically connects to the authorizing sellers. Buyers can search inventory at no cost, and use the software to place orders for free. Netfira is integrated with multiple back office systems like JDEdwards, Oracle, SAP, and accounting systems like FishBowl, MYOB, QuickBooks, and Sage.
