Retail businesses rarely struggle because of one bad system. They struggle because four reasonable systems — a POS, an online store, an accounting package and a warehouse process — each hold part of the truth and none of them agree.
ByteX works on the boundaries between those systems. That includes reviewing which system should be the source of truth for stock and pricing, building or specifying the synchronisation between them, cleaning up catalogue data, and giving management one comparable view across locations.
ByteX provides independent integration and workflow consulting. References to third-party products do not imply endorsement, certification or an official partnership unless expressly stated.
Capabilities
Practical use cases
Each use case describes the problem, the approach and the limits, so you can judge whether it matches your situation before you get in touch.
Typical systems
This is an indicative list, not a guarantee of integration. What is achievable with any given platform depends on your subscription, the available API and the vendor's terms, and is confirmed during the review stage.
Delivery process
We talk through the business problem and how the work is done today — who touches it, how often, and where it goes wrong. No obligation to proceed.
We identify the systems involved, confirm what their APIs and permissions actually allow, and set out requirements, risks and options. Some ideas are ruled out at this stage, and that is a useful outcome.
We configure or develop the agreed solution against a written scope, with validation, logging and error handling built in rather than added later.
We test with your data, document how it works, hand over to your team, and agree what planned improvements or maintenance make sense.
Important limitations
These constraints are stated up front because finding them out midway through a project is expensive for everybody.
Questions
That depends on the platform and your subscription. The first step is checking what API, webhook or export capability is genuinely available to your account. Some integrations are straightforward, some need middleware, and some are not possible. You will be told which of those applies before any build work is quoted.
That is a business decision as much as a technical one, and it is worth deciding deliberately. Usually one system is nominated as the source of truth for stock and another for pricing. Letting two systems write freely to each other is the most common cause of the problem you are trying to fix.
Yes. Storefront changes, catalogue structure and integration work often need to be considered together, particularly where the store also supports a physical location.
Yes. Catalogue cleanup and controlled import preparation is a common standalone project, and it is usually far cheaper to clean data before a migration than to correct it afterwards.
