Is Scale the right plan for you?
Scale fits when
- Orders over a limit wait for sign-off
- Each customer buys on their own negotiated price list
- Auditors or customers ask who changed what
- Your staff sign in through your identity provider
- You want to see what buyers search for and do not find
- You would rather ship a storefront than build one
Enterprise is the right conversation when
- Buyers start in their own purchasing system
- Quotes go through several rounds of negotiation
- Products are configured to order before they are priced
- You need capabilities built for you by Vendure engineers
- Procurement expects a contract, a DPA, SLAs and a named contact
What procurement adds to an order
At this size the buying rules stop belonging to your customer's buyer and start belonging to their finance team. An order is not placed, it is proposed. It is checked against a spending limit, sent to the right approver, held until someone signs it, and recorded so it can be explained later.
Order approvals hold an order over a spending limit or order total until the right person at your customer approves it, rejects it or asks for changes. Chains with more than one level, timeouts and delegation come with advanced approvals on Enterprise. Contract pricing holds the per-customer price lists, negotiated rates and volume breaks, each with the dates it starts and stops applying. Last year's agreement expires on its own instead of being edited by hand.
OIDC single sign-on lets your administrators sign in through the identity provider your organisation already runs. The audit log records supported administration and commerce events: who changed what, and when. It is the first thing a security review asks for.
Search analytics records what your buyers searched for and what came back, on top of the search engine Growth already gave you. The B2B storefront ships as a production Next.js application already wired to every capability above. Take it as it is, or fork it.
Implementation
Two ways to implement Scale
Scale is bought online and delivered by your own team or by an official Vendure partner, with Professional Services alongside whenever you want the engineers who build the platform in the room.
Route 01
Your own team
Your engineers own delivery on a platform they can read and extend. Product support is included in the plan, and Vendure experts can embed alongside your team through Professional Services when you want them.
Route 02
An official Vendure partner
An agency that has delivered Vendure before owns the project end to end, in your region and your language, against the same licence and the same capabilities.
Need Vendure to run the implementation?
End-to-end delivery by the Vendure team, a dedicated key account manager and capabilities built for your business come with Enterprise. Scale stays the right plan for most procurement-led teams; Enterprise is there when you want us in the driving seat.
FAQ
How is Scale different from Growth?
Growth models who your customer is. Scale models how they are allowed to buy: order approvals, contract prices with validity dates, an audit log and single sign-on for your administrators. It also adds shared carts, product types, search analytics and the Next.js B2B storefront. Everything in Growth and Starter is included.
Does it integrate with our ERP?
Yes, through an integration your team or a partner builds. Vendure ships no ERP connector. Integrations are plugins written in TypeScript against a documented API, so an ERP can be the source of truth for stock, customer-specific prices or credit while Vendure owns the buying experience.
Do we still have to build a storefront?
No. Scale includes the Vendure B2B Storefront, a production Next.js application already connected to company accounts, quotes, lists, approvals and contract pricing. Ship it as it is, restyle it, or treat it as the reference implementation for a fully custom build.
When does Enterprise become the right step?
When your largest customers order through their own procurement systems, negotiate quotes in rounds, or configure products before they can be priced, or when you need capabilities built for your business and maintained by Vendure engineers. Enterprise adds advanced approvals, advanced pricing, federated single sign-on and audit governance on top of everything in Scale, plus a key account manager and the DPA, SLAs and contractual terms procurement requires.
