How do Wine Owners actually work?

Wine Owners’ provides a Software as a Service solution, embedded with industry-specific information, to the independent wine market globally, paid for principally on a monthly recurring subscription model. Their solutions are perfectly adapted for wine retail and distribution and warehouses, and provide deep engagement with their clients. 

Software as a Service (SaaS) API connectivity makes it so much simpler to integrate with the best in every class. So you don’t end up with a ‘meh' accounting package, you get Xero or Sage Intacct. The same goes with CRM or business intelligence or email service providers (ESPs). When we offer a fully integrated e-commerce offering (called the Hub Webshop), you’re not stuck with something we’ve built that’s proprietary, you get pre-integrated WooCommerce and WordPress that’s so deep you wouldn’t know they’re different softwares.

SaaS and Platform as a Service (PaaS) are more than just buzzwords, they reflect an approach to software configuration that is uncompromising, de-risked, and capable of providing the very best user experience.

What are the services provided?

With the increase in the size of the fine wine market, Wine Owners are continuously implementing new technologies that are enhancing the experience of investing in fine wines online. It has a huge database of fine wine with a wealth of information, pricing for current market valuations with 10-year price history, and direct market access via a dynamic fine wine marketplace that makes it simple and cost-effective to sell your wine yourself or to buy from other wine collectors. Some of the services offered by Wine Owners are:

What is Wine Hub?

The Wine Hub is a business operating platform, used by Retailers/Merchants and Specialist Importers to manage their whole business operation. Because Wine Hub was designed by Wine Owners Ltd just for the wine and spirits industry, it’s able to deliver considerable business efficiencies and drives a business growth agenda, (which is much more difficult and expensive when adapting generic, cross-industry software frameworks to wine).

So think of the Wine Hub as comprising all the aspects of an ERP such as inventory management, purchasing, shipping, reconciling, selling, client management, eCommerce, and omnichannel…adapted specifically for the wine market.
