Every order request by e-mail and every service call costs you money.

Order inquiries by e-mail. Spare parts orders by phone. Service notifications by post. What is inconvenient for your B2B customers also ties up valuable resources in your sales and customer service departments. Yet most of this could be solved digitally: around the clock, without telephone loops, without manual follow-up.

This is exactly where a well-developed B2B customer portal comes in. Industrial companies that consistently digitalize self-service noticeably reduce their service costs, measurably increase customer satisfaction and create the basis for data-driven sales decisions.

74% of B2B buyers prefer self-service portals for routine orders and service requests to direct contact with sales.

prodot - Your development partner for B2B customer portals in industry and mechanical engineering

Over 25 years of experience in portal development

We have been developing customized software solutions for complex industries for more than two decades. B2B customer portals for industrial companies - with their specific requirements for ERP integration, product complexity and security - are part of our core business.

Industry knowledge meets technical excellence

A customer portal for industrial companies is not standard software. It needs to talk to your SAP or ERP system, map complex product configurations, be GDPR-compliant and still be intuitive for your B2B customers to use. This is precisely why we develop customized solutions.

From conception to productive operation

We accompany you through the entire development process: from requirements analysis and UX design to technical implementation and integration through to go-live and ongoing further development. You don't get a black box, but full transparency.

What your B2B customer portal should be able to do

Order management & tracking

B2B customers place orders, track order status and retrieve delivery documents directly in the portal: no telephone, no e-mail ping-pong and available around the clock.

Spare parts catalog & technical documentation

Customers can find spare parts with exploded views, parts lists and compatibility information. Technical manuals, drawings and certificates are available at all times.

Service requests & maintenance management

Customers report faults in a structured manner, book maintenance appointments and track service tickets in real time. Your field service automatically receives all relevant information.

user-robot-light
AI-supported predictive maintenance

With AI support, the portal analyzes machine data and provides proactive maintenance recommendations: Detecting failures before they occur. This significantly reduces unplanned downtimes.

What a B2B customer portal can do for your industrial company

The digitalization of customer service is strategically crucial in the B2B segment. Industrial companies with high-performance self-service portals reduce their service costs by up to 30 percent and measurably increase customer satisfaction. (Forrester B2B Commerce Forecast 2024)

A well-designed B2B customer portal delivers concrete, measurable results:

  • Less sales effort for routine: customers handle standard orders, status requests and document downloads themselves.

  • Lower service costs: Digital self-service interactions cost a fraction of a manual contact.

  • Faster order processing: Structured order processes and automated ERP connection speed up the order-to-cash process.

  • Greater customer loyalty: Excellent digital services strengthen the supplier relationship in the long term.

  • Better data basis: usage data enables data-driven sales decisions and up-selling potential.

Technically sophisticated - seamlessly integrated into your system landscape

A B2B customer portal for industrial companies does not stand alone. It must communicate reliably with your existing IT infrastructure. We integrate your portal into:

  • ERP systems (SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, proALPHA, etc.)

  • CRM systems (Microsoft Dynamics 365, Salesforce, etc.)

  • PLM and CAD systems for technical documentation

  • IoT platforms for machine data and predictive maintenance

  • Active Directory / Azure AD for single sign-on

Our portals are built on Azure infrastructure, GDPR-compliant, highly available and audit-proof. Whether you are building for 50 or 5,000 B2B customers: We deliver a solution that scales.
