Sana Commerce alternatives: where to go for your ERP, and how to migrate
Seven B2B platforms, each matched to an ERP setup, plus a six-step migration plan.
The short answer: on Business Central, look at Shopify Plus (Microsoft maintains the connector, B2B companies included), k-eCommerce or commercebuild, two Dynamics-native platforms with published prices. On SAP Business One or ECC, OroCommerce ships an official connector. On Dynamics 365 F&O or AX, k-eCommerce is the closest match to Sana. For a multi-storefront enterprise, Salesforce B2B Commerce or Adobe Commerce, both quote-based. We compared all seven, their ERP connectors and their list prices in 2026.
The ranking is editorial: a sponsored spot is always labeled on its card, and no affiliate link changes a score.
Why teams leave Sana Commerce, and what keeps them
Sana has loyal customers. Reviewers praise its stability (one Canadian wholesaler reports zero downtime in twelve months) and the fact that the store reads the ERP live. People leave for other reasons: a bill you can't see in advance, an ERP that dictates everything, and gaps customers describe in their own reviews. Six reasons, all checked in 2026.
No public price on any plan
All three plans, Essential, Pro and Advanced, say "Request pricing". You can't benchmark before a sales call. Sana also doesn't publish a contract term, setup fees or exit terms, so get those in writing before you sign or renew.
Bigger ERPs force the Advanced plan
Essential and Pro support SAP Business One, Business Central and NAV. SAP ECC, Dynamics AX, Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain and SAP S/4HANA (SAP Cloud ERP) are Advanced only. As your ERP grows, so does your Sana license.
Switching ERP means rethinking the store
Sana only talks to Dynamics and SAP. NetSuite and Epicor aren't on the list. A company moving to another ERP has to reopen the ecommerce project at the same time. And an old SAP R/3 isn't supported at all: Sana needs ECC 6.0 or later.
Upgrades get expensive
One customer still on Sana 9.3 says their add-ons are no longer updated and that moving to Sana Commerce Cloud "would be very expensive". On connectors, Sana guarantees support for its Cloud 1.0.x framework; on 9.2.1, support is no longer guaranteed.
Reporting, multilingual and design feel tight
The same complaints keep coming up: no real reporting, a multilingual site that's painful to maintain (switch language, reload, edit one item, repeat), responsive layouts that aren't always good enough, and limited CSS access for design tweaks. Advanced analytics and deeper customization are Advanced-plan features anyway.
B2B first, everything else second
Sana is built for ERP-connected business ordering. Adding a DTC store, a second brand or a marketplace quickly turns into a separate project, and multi-account hierarchies are Advanced only. If your growth plan includes selling direct, that matters.
Your ERP is… go with…

Sana Commerce alternatives, one platform at a time
For each platform: why move there, who it fits, the catch, how to migrate from Sana, and what it costs. Scores come from our B2B ecommerce platform ranking and are the same everywhere on the site. Prices are what each vendor lists in 2026.
Shopify Plus: B2B and DTC on one store
Business Central + DTCWhy move to Shopify Plus. Sana is excellent at B2B and not much else. Shopify Plus puts trade buyers and consumers on one store, with a published price. The big one: Microsoft itself maintains the Shopify connector inside Business Central. A B2B order opens from the company record, and payment terms for each account sync both ways.
Who it's for. Distributors and brands on Business Central that want a trade portal and a consumer store without running two projects.
Who should skip it. Companies on SAP or Dynamics 365 F&O. We found no official Shopify connector for those ERPs, so you'd rely on a third-party app or middleware.
The catch. The Business Central connector is solid, but some features have conditions: salesperson mapping, for example, only works on B2B stores. Card fees start at 2.25% + 30¢ per payment on top of the plan.
How to migrate from Sana. Keep Business Central as the source for items, prices and customers. Turn on the connector, set up B2B companies in Shopify, and check payment terms account by account before launch.
What it costs. From $2,300 a month, the price on Shopify's official pricing page. The Advanced plan ($299 a month billed yearly) already includes Shopify B2B, capped at 3 catalogs; Plus makes them unlimited.

k-eCommerce: built for Dynamics, with prices on the page
Closest to SanaWhy move to k-eCommerce. On ERP coverage, this is the platform that looks most like Sana, with one big difference: prices are public. Essentials covers Business Central, Dynamics GP, NAV and SAP Business One. Growth covers Dynamics 365 F&O, Dynamics AX and Acumatica.
Who it's for. Distributors and manufacturers on Dynamics, including NAV and F&O, who want an ERP-connected store without negotiating blind.
Who should skip it. Companies on SAP S/4HANA. It isn't on the list.
The catch. Add-ons stack up: quote management is $75 a month, end-user SSO is $3,600 one-time plus $185 a month. Run the numbers with add-ons before you compare it with Sana.
How to migrate from Sana. Same model as Sana: the ERP stays the source. You swap the connector, then move content (product copy, images, pages) and redirects. Pick the plan by ERP, not by page count.
What it costs. Essentials $1,265 a month, Growth $2,080 a month, Advanced $2,475 a month. A one-time implementation fee comes on top of every plan.

OroCommerce: the pick for SAP shops
SAP B1 and ECCWhy move to OroCommerce. If you're on SAP Business One or SAP ECC, Oro is one of the few platforms that lists an official connector for both. The list also includes Epicor Prophet 21, Oracle JD Edwards, Eclipse, MDS and Sage X3, which leaves room to change ERP later.
Who it's for. Manufacturers and distributors on SAP B1 or ECC with an in-house tech team or an implementation partner.
Who should skip it. Companies on Dynamics: neither Business Central nor F&O is on the official connector list, so you'd need a third-party iPaaS. Same for S/4HANA.
The catch. Community Edition is free, but you host it. Enterprise is quote-based, priced on GMV, starting at 25 admin users.
How to migrate from Sana. Connect SAP, pull the catalog and pricing from the ERP, then move content and redirects. Stand up Community Edition in staging first to check your pricing rules.
What it costs. Community is free. Enterprise by quote, based on GMV.
- Score

BigCommerce B2B Edition: no ERP lock-in
ERP-agnosticWhy move to BigCommerce. Sana ties you to Dynamics or SAP. BigCommerce ties you to nothing: the vendor names NetSuite, Dynamics 365, SAP, Acumatica, Sage and Odoo among the top ERPs for its B2B customers, connected through partners. For Business Central, the i95Dev app on its marketplace handles company accounts, credit limits, sales quotes, sales reps and multi-warehousing.
Who it's for. Companies planning an ERP change, or running different ERPs by country.
Who should skip it. Teams that want a first-party connector. At BigCommerce the ERP link is an app or a partner, and that's who you call when it breaks.
The catch. B2B Edition is quote-based. Fees are calculated on GMV from eligible orders, so a big year costs more.
How to migrate from Sana. Choose the ERP app or partner first, have them carry over company accounts and price lists, then import the enriched catalog and redirects.
What it costs. Performance from $1,499 a month, billed annually. B2B Edition by quote.
- Score

commercebuild: an affordable Business Central customer portal
Budget Business CentralWhy move to commercebuild. Plenty of Sana customers on Business Central mainly need a portal where buyers reorder, see invoices and check their pricing. commercebuild does exactly that, with a public price list that starts low.
Who it's for. SMBs on Business Central or Sage (X3, 300) who need an ordering portal more than a marketing storefront.
Who should skip it. Companies on SAP: commercebuild doesn't cover it.
The catch. Prices are in US dollars; other currencies are quote-only.
How to migrate from Sana. Connect Business Central, open the portal to a handful of loyal accounts, then roll it out to everyone. Catalog and pricing stay in the ERP.
What it costs. Customer Portal from $500 a month, Foundation from $795, Advanced from $1,800, Enterprise from $3,490.

Salesforce B2B Commerce: for enterprises already on Salesforce
Multi-storefrontWhy move to Salesforce B2B Commerce. If your sales team lives in Salesforce, putting the B2B store in the same place removes one more sync. Growth Edition includes six storefronts and Order Management Lite.
Who it's for. Groups running several brands or countries with a Salesforce team already in place.
Who should skip it. An SMB that wants to know the price upfront: everything is quote-based.
The catch. Salesforce takes a percentage of GMV (site revenue minus tax and shipping), shared only in a quote. Treat the ERP integration as its own project and get it scoped by your implementation partner.
How to migrate from Sana. Start with the ERP integration (items, prices, stock, orders), then launch storefronts one by one. Each one is a chance to clean up your Sana content.
What it costs. By quote, as a share of GMV.
- Score
- 4.2 / 5
- Price
- by quote, % of GMV
- Included
- 6 storefronts (Growth)
- Catch

Adobe Commerce: when you want to customize everything
Full customizationWhy move to Adobe Commerce. Sana customers complain that the design is hard to tweak. Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento) is the opposite: you can customize anything, as long as you have the team.
Who it's for. Companies with an Adobe partner and very specific B2B requirements.
Who should skip it. An SMB that wants an ERP-connected store without a development project: the ERP connector becomes a project of its own.
The catch. B2B is an extension you install and enable on Adobe Commerce, the licensed edition, which is quote-based.
How to migrate from Sana. Get the ERP integration scoped by your partner first, then the move of accounts, pricing and content.
What it costs. By quote.

Migrate off Sana Commerce in six steps
With Sana, the store reads the ERP. So a migration moves a connection more than it moves data. Order matters: each step protects your customer pricing, your orders or your search traffic.
List what Sana does for you, not just what it shows
FirstWrite down your plan (Essential, Pro or Advanced) and every feature your buyers use: returns (RMA), quote-to-order, customer segments, account hierarchies, integrated marketplaces. Those are what the new platform has to cover.
Then split the data: what comes from the ERP (items, prices, stock, payment terms) and what only lives in Sana (pages, images, copy, translations). The second group is what you'll actually migrate.
- Output
- one row per feature
- Risk if rushed
- a feature missing at launch
Pick the platform by ERP and ERP version
DecisionCheck the connector before the demo. Business Central: Shopify Plus, k-eCommerce, commercebuild. SAP B1 or ECC: OroCommerce, plus k-eCommerce for B1. F&O or AX: k-eCommerce. Ask every vendor for a written list of supported ERPs and versions.
Still on an old SAP? Sana itself requires ECC 6.0 or later. An ERP migration in flight changes everything: do it first, or pick a platform that covers both systems.
- Ask for
- a written ERP list
- Trap
- unmaintained third-party connector
Build the connector in staging, on an ERP copy
TechnicalConnect the new platform to a copy of your ERP, never to production. Pull items, prices, stock and customer accounts. Spot-check ten real customers: net prices, volume breaks, payment terms.
This check matters more than anything else. One wrong customer price means a cancelled order or a lost margin.
- Check
- net prices for 10 customers
- Risk
- wrong customer price
Move content and translations
ContentCopy, images, pages and translations entered in Sana aren't in the ERP. Export them, clean them up, import them. It's the right moment to fix the multilingual pain Sana users describe: one field per language, no more reloading a page for every item.
- Often forgotten
- translations
- Bonus
- richer product pages
Map a 301 redirect for every URL
SEOList every URL on your Sana site (products, categories, pages) and map each one to its new address with a 301 (permanent) redirect. Skip this and buyers hit error pages from their bookmarks, and Google drops your pages.
- Type
- 301 permanent
- Risk if skipped
- lost traffic
Cut over by customer group, then shut Sana down
LaunchOpen the new store to a few loyal accounts first, then to everyone. Keep Sana read-only until open orders are shipped and invoiced. Cancel only once the first orders have landed in the ERP without errors.
- First group
- loyal accounts
- Keep
- Sana until the last shipments

What makes a Sana Commerce migration fail
The same mistakes show up in B2B replatforming projects again and again. None of them is about code. They're decisions made in the wrong order.
Choosing the platform before the connector
A slick demo tells you nothing about the connector. If your ERP isn't on the vendor's official list, you pay for a third-party app or an integrator, and they're the ones answering when it breaks.
Forgetting an Advanced-plan feature
Account hierarchies, multi-installation, advanced analytics: if you were on Advanced, check that the new platform has them, on which plan, and at what price.
Comparing a flat fee with a GMV percentage
Shopify Plus, k-eCommerce and commercebuild list a subscription. BigCommerce and Salesforce also charge on GMV. Model it on last year's online revenue, not on the entry price.
Shutting Sana off too early
Open orders, open quotes and customer history must stay readable until the end. Get your contract end date and content export confirmed in writing.
- Your ERP and its version are on the vendor's written list
- Net prices for 10 real customers are right in staging
- Every Sana feature you use has an equivalent
- One 301 redirect per URL
- Annual cost modeled on your GMV (see our ranking for distributors)
Sana Commerce alternatives: frequently asked questions
What's the best Sana Commerce alternative for Dynamics 365 Business Central?
Shopify Plus if you also sell DTC, k-eCommerce if you want the closest thing to Sana, commercebuild on a tight budget. Microsoft maintains the Shopify connector inside Business Central and it handles B2B companies. Tip: the connector's salesperson mapping only works on a B2B store.
Sana Commerce vs Shopify Plus: can Shopify handle B2B?
Yes, if you're on Business Central: Microsoft's connector imports B2B companies and their payment terms. On SAP or F&O, we found no official connector, so you'd use a third-party app. Budget for card fees too, from 2.25% + 30¢ per payment, on top of the $2,300 a month starting price.
Which Sana alternative works with SAP S/4HANA?
None of OroCommerce, k-eCommerce or commercebuild lists S/4HANA. Oro covers SAP B1 and ECC natively; for S/4HANA, plan on a partner-built integration, for example on BigCommerce, which names SAP among its customers' ERPs. Our ranking for manufacturers digs into these setups.
How much do Sana Commerce alternatives cost?
From $500 a month for a commercebuild customer portal to $2,475 for k-eCommerce Advanced, and from $2,300 a month for Shopify Plus. OroCommerce Enterprise, Salesforce and Adobe are quote-based. Watch the add-ons: k-eCommerce end-user SSO is $3,600 one-time plus $185 a month.
Is there an open-source alternative to Sana Commerce?
Yes. OroCommerce Community Edition is free and ships an official SAP B1 and ECC connector; you host and maintain it. On the Adobe side, the B2B extension runs on Adobe Commerce, the licensed, quote-based edition.
Do I need to change ERP to leave Sana Commerce?
No. Every platform on this page connects to an existing ERP. It's often the reverse: a move to NetSuite or Epicor is what pushes teams off Sana, which doesn't support them. In that case, pick a platform that covers both the old and the new ERP.
What should I ask Sana before renewing?
Three things, in writing: contract term, exit terms, and the price of changing plans. Sana doesn't publish them. If you're still on 9.x, also ask what moving to Sana Commerce Cloud costs; that quote is often what starts the comparison.
