Prestashop

Prestashop is an opensource web application for creating an online store.

Connecting Prestashop to Monstock allows you to centralize and automate the flow management of your e-commerce store, across all your sales channels, to increase productivity and profitability.

The connector between Monstock and PrestaShop provides a seamless gateway between logistics management and online sales. It enables businesses to unify their commercial and operational activities, ensuring automatic data synchronisation between the e-commerce store and inventory management. Thanks to this integration, users benefit from real-time visibility of their products, stock and orders, while eliminating manual entry errors and inconsistencies between systems.

The product sheets created in Monstock (with their variants, prices and photos) are automatically synchronised in PrestaShop. This ensures that the online catalogue is always up to date, with accurate information on the characteristics and availability of items. Conversely, customer orders placed on the PrestaShop store are sent directly to Monstock, where they trigger the preparation, logistics and shipping processes.

This automation frees teams from repetitive and time-consuming tasks. Data flows between the two solutions ensure continuous stock updates, preventing the sale of out-of-stock products and improving the reliability of customer promises. In addition, order statuses updated in Monstock are automatically sent back to PrestaShop, ensuring smooth and transparent communication with online shoppers.

Operationally, this integration enhances the productivity and accuracy of e-commerce and logistics operations. Strategically, it provides a unified view of sales and inventory, enabling rapid and informed decision-making.

Businesses can thus manage their omnichannel activity with agility, while ensuring a consistent and reliable customer experience. In short, the Monstock–PrestaShop connector is a key driver of efficiency and competitiveness, aligning sales and logistics teams around a single, synchronised data set.

The integration scheme between Monstock and PrestaShop highlights a set of bidirectional flows designed to ensure the consistency and reliability of information shared between inventory management and the online shop. These automated exchanges cover all data essential to the smooth running of a high-performance e-commerce business.
