Jitterbit Acquires eBridge Connections, a B2B and E-Commerce Integrations Leader
Jitterbit, eBridge Connections | May 31, 2021
Jitterbit, the API transformation company, today announced it'd acquired eBridge Connections, a leading integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) provider that enables data to seamlessly flow between on-premises or cloud e-commerce, EDI, ERP, and CRM systems. A solid complement to Jitterbit's award-winning Harmony API integration platform, the combined offerings will provide one of the industry's most comprehensive sets of integration solutions around e-commerce integration and EDI integration on the market, helping customers accelerate their digital transformations and reap massive time efficiencies.
B2B E-commerce: a must-have
To implement B2B e-commerce, companies need to integrate a myriad of necessary front- and back-end systems and services with trading partners, an undertaking that's notoriously complex and difficult. Companies struggle to find and fund developer teams with the required integration and API expertise.
With this acquisition, Jitterbit has created a best-in-class platform that effortlessly integrates the critical applications and platforms needed to give companies a rich Customer 360 view with a single source of truth for merchants, whether they use on-premises or cloud or hybrid-cloud software applications. Jitterbit will now also provide seamless integration with retail outlets that support EDI transactions, including Costco, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Kroger, Lowes, and more, giving retailers, wholesalers, and suppliers more avenues to grow their businesses.
"Jitterbit's acquisition of eBridge Connections demonstrates our continued commitment to providing the most advanced API integration platform on the market," said George Gallegos, CEO of Jitterbit. "The number of clouds and applications necessary to run modern businesses continues to grow exponentially, showing no signs of slowing, making integration technologies crucial. We're proud to provide a full suite of best-in-class products and services that connect the world's systems, and bringing eBridge Connections into that suite of offerings provides richer e-commerce and B2B integration capabilities to our customers."
The eBridge Connections universal platform supports over 30 ERP systems, including products from Microsoft, Sage, SAP, NetSuite, and Epicor, with connections to the leading e-commerce carts and marketplaces, CRM applications, and hundreds of EDI trading partners. Jitterbit will now be able to provide deeper integration solutions with critical ecosystems, including:
• E-commerce (Shopify, BigCommerce, Amazon, Magento, WooCommerce)
• EDI (CommerceHub, Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe's, Costco, and eBay)
• Shipping and third-party logistics (ShipStation, FedEx, UPS)
• FinTech (Stripe, Square)
• ERP (SAP, Epicor, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Quickbooks, Sage, Exact)
• CRM (Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics)
"For over 25 years, we've been committed to developing smart and repeatable workflows to assist companies in thriving, and now we're thrilled to be able to bring our expertise to Jitterbit," said Colin Brown, founder, and CEO of eBridge Connections. "Our combined technology will deliver the next generation of exceptional internal and external 360-degree solutions to ignite business growth for customers and uncover incredible operational efficiencies."
