IPOS alternative: ERP for shoe and fashion retail
DezemberHub is an alternative to IPOS from EBG-Data for shoe and fashion retail specialists: ERP system with size matrix, TSE-compliant POS, purchasing, shipping, and analytics in one system. In use since 2015, with the commitment that the software adapts to your store, not the other way around. Business plan: €50 base fee per month plus €50 per POS, cancel monthly, data migration from IPOS included.
Why retailers are currently considering an IPOS alternative
IPOS is developed by EBG-Data GmbH, which had been part of the ANWR Group since 2010. In June 2026, EBG-Data was sold to Total Specific Solutions, whose group also includes prohandel. This change of ownership at the long-standing market leader is prompting many shoe and fashion retailers to reassess their software strategy.
DezemberHub is an independent product and has no connection to IPOS, EBG-Data GmbH, the ANWR Group, or Total Specific Solutions. Those who switch keep their data and set the migration date themselves.

How to switch from IPOS to DezemberHub
The first system switch that doesn't feel like one: data migration from IPOS is included. You test in parallel with your real data and switch when you're ready.
Products, stock, and customer data all move with you at no extra charge. You set the migration date yourself, and your existing system keeps running unchanged in the meantime.
If you also sell on marketplaces, the DezemberHub Connector takes over your existing integration with Zalando, OTTO, Amazon, and over 50 other channels and also serves as a bridge for the migration.
Who DezemberHub is right for
DezemberHub is a good fit for owner-managed shoe and fashion stores, from a single location to a small multi-branch chain, that want ERP, POS, and analytics from one source. The price depends solely on the number of concurrent POS units; revenue, number of locations, and number of employees play no role.
