How the switch works →What DezemberHub is and who it's for
DezemberHub is an ERP system with POS, purchasing, shipping, analytics, and AI assistant for shoe and fashion retail. From a single store to a small chain. The software adapts to your store, not the other way around.
Sizes and widths, half sizes, size systems in EU, UK, and US, NOS management, and season management are all standard. The POS is TSE-compliant and works offline. Reports drill down to individual sizes and export to DATEV.
Online selling via marketplaces is an optional add-on through the DezemberHub Connector, which also serves as a bridge when migrating from your existing system.
