Who this is for: Small and mid-sized US wholesale distributors on QuickBooks Online whose reps either build orders in the field or relay them to the office.
How we evaluated
- Which setup it serves — reps building orders in person, or reps relaying orders for the office to process
- Genuinely used for B2B sales rep order entry
- Transparent about pricing, including which vendors don't publish it
- Honest about fit — no tool here suits every team, and each entry says who it's for
The shortlist at a glance
- SimplyDepo. A field-sales and retail-execution platform for CPG brands and distributors: offline rep ordering, route planning, in-store tasks, and a branded buyer portal, with a QuickBooks Online integration. Quote-based, team-size pricing.
- WizCommerce. An AI-first wholesale platform: an offline-first rep app, buyer portal, payments, and AI order entry that reads emails, PDFs, and more. Quote- and demo-based.
- Pepperi. A unified B2B commerce platform for larger operations: rep mobile order-taking, a branded buyer portal, retail execution, and configurable approval workflows. Quote-based.
- Skynamo. A field-sales platform where reps place orders on-site, even offline, with a customer self-service trade portal and approval forms. QuickBooks Desktop connector confirmed. Quote-based.
- Repsly. Retail-execution software for CPG field teams — shelf audits, visit scheduling, merchandising — with in-store order entry alongside. QuickBooks reached via Zapier. Quote-based.
- PeasyOrders. Not a rep app: the office-side capture for reps who relay. A rep emails the order in; PeasyOrders reads it, matches your catalog, applies the customer's price, and a person reviews before it exports to QuickBooks Online as an Estimate. Phoned-in orders are added in one click as manual entries.
Which sales-rep setup are you running?
"Sales rep order entry" sounds like one thing, but it splits into two different setups, and the right tool depends entirely on which one you're running. Some reps sell in person: they sit with an account, walk the catalog, check pricing, and build the order on a tablet right there. Others never build the order themselves — they email it to the office from the field, or the account phones it in, and someone at a desk turns it into a record.
Those need different tools. Reps who build orders in the field need a dedicated rep app — offline catalog, account-specific pricing, fast reorders — and that category is real and mature. Reps who relay orders don't need an app to tap through; they need the office to capture what already arrives. Buy a per-seat field platform for reps who'll never open it and you've bought shelfware; try to hand-process relayed orders when your reps would happily self-serve in an app, and you've kept work you could have moved. We walk the decision itself in mobile order entry for sales reps — here, the tools.
Below are six, honestly assessed: five dedicated rep platforms for in-person selling, then PeasyOrders (ours) for the relay setup — it's openly not a rep app, and we say so in its entry. A pricing note that shapes this whole category: none of the five rep vendors publishes a self-serve price, so plan on sales conversations.

The tools, reviewed
SimplyDepo — the SMB-shaped field-sales app
SimplyDepo is a field-sales and retail-execution platform for CPG brands and distributors. Reps capture and update orders from anywhere — with offline support and real-time sync — alongside route planning and optimization, in-store tasks and photo-based retail execution, a CRM, and a branded buyer portal where accounts can order from your catalog at their own pricing. Its QuickBooks integration is QuickBooks Online, syncing orders, invoices, payments, and credits without re-entry.
Pricing is flexible and team-size-based — no public per-seat rate — with a full-featured 30-day free trial. The honest fit note: it's a field platform. If your reps don't visit accounts and build orders, you'd be paying for capabilities they won't use. See PeasyOrders vs. SimplyDepo.
WizCommerce — the AI-first platform
WizCommerce pairs an offline-first sales-rep app (WizOrder) — barcode scanning, showroom and trade-show ordering — with a buyer portal (WizShop), B2B payments (WizPay), and AI catalog tooling, plus 100+ ERP and back-office integrations including NetSuite, QuickBooks, Fishbowl, Epicor P21, SAP, and Sage Intacct. Orders push to QuickBooks Online as invoices and to QuickBooks Desktop as sales orders.
Worth stating plainly: its AI Order Entry Assistant reads orders from emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, scans, voice notes, and handwritten documents, with a review view for approving before submission — so WizCommerce covers both the in-person half and a wide slice of the capture half, by design. What you're weighing against that breadth: it's a full platform bought through quotes and demos, with no public self-serve pricing. See PeasyOrders vs. WizCommerce.
Pepperi — the enterprise platform
Pepperi is a unified B2B commerce platform for larger consumer-goods operations: mobile order-taking for field reps, a branded self-service B2B portal where customers order around the clock, and retail execution. It has configurable approval workflows, so orders can require authorization before proceeding, and a QuickBooks plugin (the supported QuickBooks edition isn't clearly stated on its site).
Pricing is quote-based — its site routes to a demo request rather than a price list. The fit is the label: it's an enterprise-grade platform, generally more than a small distributor needs.
Skynamo — field sales with a trade portal
Skynamo is a sales platform for manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors: reps place orders on-site, even offline, and customers can self-serve through a B2B trade portal between visits. Approval forms route orders to named approvers before they're final. Its QuickBooks integration explicitly supports QuickBooks Desktop via a connector tool; a QuickBooks Online edition isn't confirmed on its site.
One capability worth knowing about: Skynamo's Order AI is a text-to-order feature — a rep copies the text of a message an account sent and pastes it in, and the AI identifies products and quantities to populate the order. It's rep-driven paste rather than automatic inbound capture, but it is AI order extraction, and it's theirs. Pricing is quote-based.
Repsly — retail execution first, ordering alongside
Repsly is retail-execution software for CPG field teams: shelf audits, planogram compliance, visit scheduling, and territory management, with barcode-based order entry in the store as one capability among many. Its AI (ShelfScan) is image recognition for shelf conditions — not order parsing. QuickBooks is reached through Zapier; no native first-party QuickBooks sync is published.
Pricing is quote-based, and contracts carry a 12-month minimum with annual upfront payment. If order entry is your primary need rather than merchandising, a sales-first app is the better match.
PeasyOrders — for reps who relay orders
PeasyOrders isn't a field-sales app, and that's the point of its entry. There's no in-field catalog, no offline order building, no route planning, no merchandising — if your reps sell in person and build orders on the spot, you want one of the apps above, and that's a recommendation, not a hedge.
What it does is the office side of the relay setup. A rep emails the order in from the field — free text, a PDF, a spreadsheet — and PeasyOrders reads it: each line matched to your QuickBooks items, that customer's price applied with the rule that set it shown, "the usual" resolved from the account's confirmed history, anything unclear flagged for a person. Someone in the office confirms the draft, and it exports to QuickBooks Online as an Estimate, or to Google Sheets and CSV. Orders phoned into the office are added in one click as manual entries into the same queue. To be equally plain about the limits: it doesn't read photos, scans, or handwriting, and it doesn't capture texts or voicemails — the relay lane is email, plus the one-click manual entry for calls.
It's also the only tool on this list with a published self-serve price: $99, $199, and $349 per month by confirmed order volume (200, 600, and 1,500 orders, with 3, 6, and 12 users), annual billing at two months free, a 30-day money-back guarantee, and no free trial — priced per order, not per rep. See PeasyOrders for field sales reps.
How do you choose?
Start with how your reps actually work, because that decides everything.
If your reps sell in person and build orders on the spot, you want a dedicated app: SimplyDepo for an SMB-shaped field-sales fit, WizCommerce if you also want a buyer portal and AI selling in one platform, Pepperi or Skynamo for enterprise field-sales depth, Repsly if merchandising and audits are the main job and ordering rides along.
If your reps relay orders to the office — emailing them in, with the occasional phoned order — a rep app is overhead they won't use. What you need is capture on the office side, and that's PeasyOrders. The mistake in one direction is paying per seat for a field app your reps aren't in the field to use; in the other, it's hand-retyping relayed orders when the reps would genuinely self-serve in an app. The decision guide walks both paths; the distributor automation roundup widens the lens beyond reps.
A note on how these tools price
The models aren't comparable on a sticker, because mostly there is no sticker: SimplyDepo prices by team size behind a meeting, WizCommerce by quote and demo, Pepperi and Skynamo by quote, and Repsly by quote with a 12-month annual-upfront minimum. PeasyOrders publishes its plans and charges per confirmed order rather than per rep — which changes the math when several reps relay a modest number of orders. Match the pricing model to how your team works, not just to the first number you're shown.
The bottom line
There's no single best tool for sales rep order entry, because reps don't all enter orders the same way. If yours sell in person and build orders on the spot, a dedicated rep app is the right call, and the five above are the category. If yours relay orders to the office, the app is overhead — capture the emails they already send, add the phoned orders in one click, and let a person review each draft before it lands in QuickBooks Online as an Estimate. That second half is what PeasyOrders does; plans are published at /pricing.
Quick fit check
Best for:
- Distributors whose reps sit with accounts and build orders on a tablet — the rep-app half of this list
- Distributors whose reps email orders in from the field for the office to process — the capture half
- Teams on QuickBooks Online deciding which of those two setups they're actually running
Not best for:
- Enterprises shopping for a full ERP or trade-promotion suite
- Teams with no reps — for general order intake, see the distributor automation roundup instead
Frequently asked questions
What is the best tool for sales rep order entry?
It depends on how your reps sell. If they sell in person — walking an account through a catalog and building the order on a tablet or phone — a dedicated field-sales app like SimplyDepo, WizCommerce, Pepperi, Skynamo, or Repsly is the right category, and PeasyOrders is not that. If your reps don't build orders themselves but relay them to the office — typically by email, with phoned orders keyed in — you don't need a rep app; you need the office side to capture what they send, which is what PeasyOrders does.
Do my reps need a dedicated order-entry app?
Only if they build orders in the field. A rep app earns its place when reps sit with an account, show a catalog, check account-specific pricing, and submit the order on the spot. If your reps instead email the order to the office — or call it in for someone to enter — an app they have to tap through is overhead. Capturing the email they already send, and adding the phoned orders in one click as manual entries, is the lighter setup.
How much do sales rep ordering apps cost?
Here's the honest answer: none of the five rep-focused vendors on this list publishes a self-serve price. SimplyDepo uses team-size-based pricing behind a meeting. WizCommerce is quote- and demo-based. Pepperi and Skynamo route to demo and pricing requests. Repsly is quote-based with a 12-month minimum and annual upfront payment. PeasyOrders is the exception — published plans at $99, $199, and $349 per month by confirmed order volume — though it's a capture tool, not a rep app.
What's the difference between a rep ordering app and order capture?
A rep ordering app is something your rep actively uses — they open it, browse the catalog, and build the order during a visit. Order capture works on the office side: the rep emails the order the way they already do, and the tool reads it, matches your catalog, applies pricing, and produces a draft a person reviews. Apps suit in-person selling; capture suits reps who relay.
Can these apps work offline in the field?
The vendors document it for several: SimplyDepo captures and updates orders with offline support, Skynamo lets reps place orders on-site even offline, and WizCommerce's rep app is offline-first — which matters in warehouses and rural routes. PeasyOrders isn't a field app, so offline mode doesn't apply; the rep sends an email that's processed when it reaches the office queue.
Can PeasyOrders read a photo of a handwritten order pad?
No. PeasyOrders doesn't read photos, scans, or handwriting, and it doesn't capture texts or voicemails. It reads emailed orders — the body plus PDF (text-layer) and spreadsheet attachments — and phoned-in orders are added in one click as manual entries. If your reps' workflow is genuinely photo- or text-based, a rep app where they build the order directly is the better-shaped tool.
Which is best for a small distributor?
If your reps sell in person, SimplyDepo is the most SMB-shaped of the dedicated apps, though like the others its pricing is quote-based. If your reps mostly relay orders to the office, PeasyOrders is lighter — you're not paying for a field app reps would barely open, and it's the only tool here with a published self-serve price. The enterprise platforms (Pepperi, Skynamo, Repsly) are generally more than a small team needs.
