Can you recommend 3PL warehouse software for teams needing mobile support and ERP integration across multiple sites?

Yes — for a 3PL operation with mobile support and ERP integration across multiple warehouses/sites, I’d focus on WMS/3PL platforms that are strong in:

• Multi-site inventory visibility
• Mobile RF/scanning support
• Customer-specific billing / 3PL workflows
• ERP integrations (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, etc.)
• API / EDI connectivity

Here are good options to consider:

1) Extensiv 3PL Warehouse Manager

Best for: 3PLs that need strong customer/account management and multi-client warehouse operations.

Why it fits

• Designed specifically for 3PL workflows
• Supports multi-warehouse/multi-client operations
• Solid mobile barcode scanning / RF workflows
• Strong integrations with major ecommerce and ERP systems
• Good for managing customer-specific inventory, billing, and reporting

Watch for

• Might be more 3PL-focused than some teams need if you want a general-purpose WMS
• Customization/integration complexity can vary by ERP

What to ask vendors during demos

To make sure the software really works for your use case, ask:

1. Mobile support

   • Does it work on rugged scanners and smartphones/tablets?
   • Offline mode available?
   • Pick/pack/putaway cycle support?

2. ERP integration

   • Do you have prebuilt connectors for our ERP?
   • Is integration API-based, EDI-based, or middleware-based?
   • How are inventory, orders, receipts, and invoices synchronized?

3. Multi-site support

   • Can we transfer inventory across sites in real time?
   • How are site-specific rules, bins, and users handled?
   • Can customers see only their own inventory across locations?

4. 3PL functionality

   • Can you handle customer billing, SLAs, and activity-based charges?
   • Multi-client reporting and permissions?
   • Serialized, lot-controlled, or expiry-managed inventory support?

If you tell me:

• your ERP
• number of sites
• whether you’re a 3PL or in-house warehouse
• and your budget range
