The decision in context.

Neto, now sold as Maropost Commerce Cloud, is one of the few platforms purpose-built for the ANZ market. Its appeal has always been the bundle: an ecommerce storefront, point-of-sale, inventory and order management stitched together in one product, with multichannel selling across eBay AU, Amazon.com.au and your own website. For a single-brand retailer that wants one login and one bill, that packaging is genuinely convenient.

The trade-off is that everything lives inside one vendor's box. When a Neto business outgrows the storefront, wants to move to Shopify or BigCommerce, or simply wants more control over fulfilment, the inventory and Order Management engine is entangled with the storefront it shipped with. Leavers often find the gap is not the website at all, it is the operations layer underneath it: where stock, picking, despatch and customer records used to live.

That is exactly where OpsUI sits. OpsUI is a modular ERP, WMS and CRM for the ANZ market that you buy module by module. The core idea is to keep the finance system you already trust, whether that is Xero, MYOB or NetSuite, and add OpsUI as the operations layer for warehouse, inventory, orders, shipping and CRM. You bring your own storefront and your own carriers; OpsUI runs the operations in between.

This page is an honest comparison for AU operators weighing a Neto alternative. We cover where Neto's all-in-one model is still the right call, where a separated ops layer like OpsUI fits better, and how a migration off Neto actually maps to OpsUI modules plus a storefront like Shopify and your choice of AU carriers.

Editorial context from the original analysis. Confirm current vendor-specific details against the applicable proposal.

Like-for-like requirements

Work through the requirements.

Pricing model

OpsUI approach
Published module subscriptions and Essential, Control, Command and Apex packages. Compare included users, additional seats and separately priced integration connectors.
Neto: considerations to verify
Bundled subscription tiers (storefront, POS, inventory, order management) scaled by order volume, plus add-ons, confirm current tiers with Maropost.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

What you actually buy

OpsUI approach
An operations layer only: WMS, inventory, order management, shipping, CRM and reporting. You pair it with your own storefront and finance system.
Neto: considerations to verify
An all-in-one platform: storefront plus inventory plus order management plus POS in a single bundled product from one vendor.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Storefront and ecommerce

OpsUI approach
No storefront. OpsUI integrates behind Shopify, WooCommerce or BigCommerce and feeds orders into the operations layer, so you choose and own the front end.
Neto: considerations to verify
Built-in storefront and themes are a core part of the product, which is the main reason buyers choose it.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Finance and ledger

OpsUI approach
Keep Xero, MYOB or NetSuite. Bidirectional NetSuite sync is live in production; bidirectional Xero and MYOB sync is wired during rollout via the Finance & Accounting module.
Neto: considerations to verify
Connects to external accounting packages, but the operational data of record lives inside the bundled platform rather than in a separated ops layer.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Warehouse operations

OpsUI approach
Dedicated WMS modules: wave picking, zone picking, slotting optimisation, cycle counting, receiving, quality control and exceptions management for multi-stage fulfilment.
Neto: considerations to verify
Inventory and order workflows suited to single-site and lighter-touch fulfilment; deep multi-zone warehouse process tooling is not the focus.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Carrier and shipping

OpsUI approach
NetSuite is listed as live; Xero, MYOB, Abel and SAP are built on rollout. NZ Couriers is listed as live; other carrier connections are scoped per account.
Neto: considerations to verify
Built-in shipping and label workflows across common AU carriers as part of the bundle, tuned to the platform's own order flow.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Multichannel selling

OpsUI approach
Orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and marketplaces (Amazon.com.au, eBay AU, Catch, The Iconic) flow into order management; OpsUI is the operations hub, not the listing tool.
Neto: considerations to verify
Strong native multichannel listing and order sync, especially eBay AU and Amazon.com.au, is a long-standing strength of the platform.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Modularity and exit

OpsUI approach
A la carte modules; start with one, add others as you grow. Storefront and finance stay independent, so swapping any one part does not force a full replatform.
Neto: considerations to verify
Tightly integrated bundle; moving the storefront or operations often means unwinding several functions at once.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

CRM

OpsUI approach
Sales & CRM is a separate workspace controlled by organisation entitlement. Confirm enabled workflows and rollout scope.
Neto: considerations to verify
Customer data is held within the commerce platform; dedicated CRM depth typically comes from a separate connected tool.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Data sovereignty

OpsUI approach
Confirm production, backup and log locations for the proposed deployment. Regional domains or billing currencies do not establish data residency. Aligned to the Privacy Act 1988 and its 2024 reforms.
Neto: considerations to verify
ANZ-focused vendor; verify current hosting region and data-handling terms directly, as offshore-hosted systems can carry US CLOUD Act exposure.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

Implementation shape

OpsUI approach
Scope data preparation, modules, integration work and team readiness. Agree responsibilities and timing before committing.
Neto: considerations to verify
Full-platform setup including storefront, catalogue, POS and inventory is a larger single project to stand up and to later migrate away from.

Vendor-specific scope and limitations are not independently verified here.

When Neto is the better fit

You want one all-in-one platform that bundles the storefront, POS, inventory and order management together with a single login and a single vendor relationship.

Your business is built around Neto's native multichannel listing and order sync, particularly heavy eBay AU and Amazon.com.au selling, and that workflow is working well for you today.

You are a single-site or lighter-touch retailer that does not need deep multi-zone warehouse processes like wave or zone picking, and the bundled inventory tooling comfortably covers your fulfilment.

You prefer to avoid running and integrating separate storefront, finance and operations systems, and the convenience of one box outweighs the flexibility of a modular stack.

When OpsUI is the better fit

You are leaving Neto or replatforming the storefront and need an operations layer that survives the move, so stock, orders, picking and despatch do not have to be rebuilt from scratch.

You want to keep your finance system, whether Xero, MYOB or NetSuite, rather than letting operational data of record live inside a bundled commerce platform.

Your fulfilment has outgrown single-site workflows and you need real WMS depth: wave picking, zone picking, slotting optimisation, cycle counting, receiving, quality control and exceptions.

You want to choose your own storefront (Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce) and your own AU carriers (Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll and others, or the Shippit aggregator) instead of being tied to one vendor's built-in versions.

Confirm production, backup and log locations for the proposed deployment. Regional domains or billing currencies do not establish data residency.

Treat fit guidance as an evaluation hypothesis. Ask for a demonstration of your required workflow and written confirmation of dependencies before committing.

Implementation and local context.

Confirm production, backup and log locations for the proposed deployment. Regional domains or billing currencies do not establish data residency. For AU operators that matters in practice: orders and stock movements feed your existing Xero, MYOB or NetSuite ledger for GST and BAS rather than being trapped in a separate platform. Carrier integrations are wired during rollout (direct API, aggregator or file-based). Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll and others run through the Shipping/Outbound module, with NZ Couriers the one live carrier API today. Data handling is aligned to the Privacy Act 1988 and its 2024 reforms, with the US CLOUD Act exposure of offshore-hosted systems a fair point to check on any vendor.

Agree data preparation, configuration, training, cutover and recovery responsibilities. Confirm the relevant accounting and carrier connections, rather than assuming they are included in the licence.

Questions buyers ask.

Is OpsUI a direct replacement for Neto?

Not as a one-for-one swap. Neto bundles a storefront with inventory and order management; OpsUI is the operations layer only. The usual pattern when leaving Neto is to pair a storefront like Shopify, WooCommerce or BigCommerce with OpsUI for warehouse, inventory, orders, shipping and CRM, and keep your finance system. That replaces the operational half of Neto cleanly while letting you own the front end.

What happens to my multichannel selling if I move off Neto?

Your listings stay on the channels themselves (Amazon.com.au, eBay AU, Catch, The Iconic) or on your storefront platform. OpsUI is not a listing tool; it is the operations hub that receives orders from those channels into order management, then drives picking, despatch and stock updates. You keep selling where you sell today and OpsUI runs the fulfilment behind it.

Do I have to migrate my accounting when I leave Neto?

No. OpsUI is built around keeping your existing ledger. Bidirectional NetSuite sync is live in production, and bidirectional Xero and MYOB sync is wired during rollout through the Finance & Accounting module. You add OpsUI as the operations layer without a forced finance migration on top of your storefront move.

Which carriers can I use with OpsUI in Australia?

Carrier integrations are wired during rollout via the Shipping/Outbound module, direct API, an aggregator, or file-based, with the method confirmed during scoping. NZ Couriers is the one live carrier API today; Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll, DHL, Aramex (formerly Fastway), CouriersPlease and the Shippit aggregator come through that rollout. You are not locked into one vendor's built-in shipping.

How is OpsUI priced compared with an all-in-one platform?

Compare the required modules, users, order allowances, integration work and implementation responsibilities before comparing prices. OpsUI’s current package structure is shown on this page. Current competitor prices and terms need confirmation with the vendor; historical estimates are not a current quote.
