The seven capabilities that separate DSD software that survives the route from software that dies in the first dead zone — and the questions to ask on every demo.
Not 'mostly online.' Demand a full sale — catalog, pricing, invoice, signature — in airplane mode.
Invoices and payments must post to QuickBooks, NetSuite, or Sage without re-keying.
Contract prices, quantity breaks, and promos enforced automatically at the door.
Cash, credits, and truck stock reconciled automatically at day's end.
Tighter sequences mean more stops per truck — this pays for the software.
Catch-weight, stales, empties, DEX — your category's quirks handled natively.
Weeks, not quarters. Data migration should be included, not an upsell.
OrderPulse was built against exactly this checklist: true offline invoicing, two-way QuickBooks / NetSuite / Sage sync, enforced per-customer pricing, automatic settlement, route optimization, and go-live in about a week with free data migration. If you're evaluating DSD platforms, put us on the shortlist and hold us to the airplane-mode test.
