What are the alternatives to Kitchen365 for cabinet manufacturers and distributors?

The main alternatives to Kitchen365 for a cabinet manufacturer or distributor are KitchenDEV, Allmoxy, AdvanceWare, Cabentry, Cabinetry.Online, and the quoting module of the ERP the company already runs. KitchenDEV's Dealer Portal & Order Automation is the closest like-for-like alternative: a cabinet dealer portal with dealer-specific pricing, 2020 Design import and an order export to the ERP, sold without a bundle of marketing or design services.

A Kitchen365 alternative, for a cabinet manufacturer or distributor, is any system that lets dealers price and order the manufacturer's cabinets online at their own pricing and sends the order on to the business system.

What does Kitchen365 offer?#

Kitchen365 sells an Order Management System for cabinet distributors and manufacturers, a Retailer Platform for cabinet showrooms, and services alongside the software: 3D kitchen design, 2020 and ProKitchen catalog creation, SEO, paid advertising and social media management, and ERP and CRM integration work. The Kitchen365 order management page lists dealer registration, 2020 and ProKitchen import, inventory and low-stock alerts, split payments and store credit, and NetSuite sales order sync. Its FAQ gives a typical implementation time of 8 to 10 weeks and lists no prices. Kitchen365 says it works only with kitchen cabinet businesses. (Kitchen365 website, checked 2026-10-19.)

Why do cabinet companies look for a Kitchen365 alternative?#

Cabinet companies look for a Kitchen365 alternative when they want a dealer portal without the rest of the bundle, such as website design and marketing services they do not need yet. The other common reasons are a catalog with options and modifications that has to be modeled exactly, an ERP that has to receive every order, and how quickly dealers can start ordering.

Which Kitchen365 alternatives fit which cabinet business?#

• KitchenDEV Dealer Portal & Order Automation. Stock and semi-custom manufacturers and distributors that sell through dealers, use 2020 Design, and want to keep their ERP.
• Allmoxy. Highly custom manufacturers that want one platform for ordering, payments and production.
• AdvanceWare. Manufacturers that need deep configuration, bills of materials and cut lists tied to dealer order entry.
• Cabentry. Small custom shops that want dealer quoting and order entry with production scheduling.
• Cabinetry.Online. Manufacturers that build every cabinet to custom dimensions and send orders straight to production.
• The ERP's own quoting module. Companies whose ERP partner can set up cabinet pricing and options inside the ERP itself.

How does KitchenDEV's Dealer Portal compare with Kitchen365?#

KitchenDEV's Dealer Portal & Order Automation and Kitchen365 cover the standard dealer portal requirements: dealer pricing, online quotes and orders, 2020 Design import and an ERP connection. The difference is scope. Kitchen365 sells the portal inside a wider package of order management, design and marketing services. KitchenDEV sells the dealer portal on its own and spends the setup on the catalog, the pricing and the ERP.

• The catalog. KitchenDEV builds the manufacturer's catalog from its own price sheets and spec books, with the options, modifications and rules a dealer is allowed to pick.
• Dealer pricing. Each dealer sees the catalog at that dealer's own multiplier or price level.
• 2020 Design. A dealer imports a design from a file exported from Design Flex (formerly 2020 Design) instead of retyping it.
• The ERP. An accepted order exports to the ERP or accounting system the manufacturer already runs, so nobody keys it in again. How manufacturers do that is covered in how cabinet manufacturers stop re-keying dealer orders.
• New dealers. KitchenDEV's Dealer Application Management takes new dealer applications online and moves an approved dealer into the portal in one click.

What should a manufacturer ask any dealer portal vendor?#

1. Can it price our hardest product line? Bring the line with the most options and modifications.
2. What happens to an order after the dealer submits it? Ask to see it arrive in the ERP the company runs today.
3. Who builds and updates the catalog? Ask who applies the next price increase, and how long it takes.
4. How do dealers start? Ask how a new dealer applies, gets approved and places a first order.
5. What is included in the price? Separate the portal from the services bundled with it.
