If you're looking for a Magento agency in the Netherlands, you quickly find yourself jumping from one provider to another. Technical jargon, impressive portfolio pages, and similar promises. Yet there are significant differences—and you only really notice them once the project is underway, or when it doesn't go as expected.

What specifically makes Epartment different? Here are the four points clients mention time and time again.

Genuine B2B specialization, not an afterthought

Many Magento agencies do B2B on the side. Epartment does almost nothing else. Wholesalers, distributors, and manufacturers with a turnover between 5 and 50 million euros are precisely the organizations the team is built for. That means customer-specific pricing, role-based access, quick order modules, and account management aren't custom work—they're standard in our approach.

The Hyvä B2B Suite is a prime example: more than 35 B2B features, out of the box, on a lightning-fast Hyvä front end. No spending six months building before you can go live.

ERP integrations that truly work

A Magento B2B webshop is only valuable if it communicates with the rest of your business. Epartment builds and maintains ERP integrations with SAP, Unit4, Exact, and Visma via our proprietary Conneqt platform. Orders, inventory, prices, and customer data are synchronized in real time—no manual re-typing, no errors due to outdated data.

The same applies to PIM systems like Akeneo. Product information from a single source, always up to date in the webshop. For companies with thousands of SKUs, that's not a luxury, but a prerequisite for selling without errors.

Hyvä expertise as a Hyvä Silver Partner

Slow Magento webshops lose customers. That's not an opinion, that's Google data: every extra second of loading time costs conversions. Epartment is a Hyvä Silver Partner and uses this framework as the standard for new Magento implementations and migrations. The result is Google PageSpeed scores that typically seem out of reach for Magento—and SEO performance that reflects that.

The Magento Hyvä template replaces the slow Luma framework and loads up to ten times faster. Clients like Koffiehenk and Multi Ratio see this directly in bounce rates and conversions.

One partner from initial discovery to hosting

Many agencies build a webshop and then refer you to a third-party hosting provider. Epartment doesn't do that. With Corebox Hosting—optimized for Magento, with 24/7 monitoring, automated backups, and caching—everything stays under one roof. No finger-pointing when something goes wrong. A single point of contact, from Figma design to live deployment.

Vincent Blok, director at Vocas, put it this way: "Epartment has been our dedicated e-commerce partner for years, both for integrations with our SAP system and for all our other e-commerce needs." That long-term partnership is no coincidence—it's the result of a working method that goes far beyond initial delivery.
