How much does OpsUI cost?

OpsUI starter packs begin at A$499/month on opsui.au or NZ$499/month on opsui.co.nz (Lite entry tier, two users included). Individual modules are from A$299/NZ$299 per month with five users included; additional users are A$99/NZ$99 per user per month. The full Enterprise tier — every module plus all integrations — is custom-quoted.

What is a modular ERP, WMS & CRM?

A modular ERP, WMS & CRM sells each operational capability — finance, HR, warehouse, logistics, customer management, analytics — as a separately-priced product instead of one monolithic suite. Buyers pick only the modules they need today and add more as they grow. OpsUI is modular by design: 20 operational modules covering ERP, WMS, and built-in customer management, plus 5 integration connectors (NetSuite live today; Xero, MYOB, Abel ERP and SAP Business One wired during rollout) — all individually priced.

Can OpsUI run alongside NetSuite?

Yes. OpsUI supports bidirectional NetSuite sync out of the box. Customers running NetSuite frequently buy specific OpsUI modules — Wave Picking, Slotting Optimisation, ML/AI Predictions — to upgrade operational areas without replacing the GL.

Is OpsUI suitable for Australian and New Zealand small businesses?

Yes. OpsUI is built for Australian and New Zealand operations. Australian customers use opsui.au with AUD pricing and AU-region data hosting; New Zealand customers use opsui.co.nz with NZD pricing and NZ-region data hosting.

Does OpsUI integrate with Xero or MYOB?

Yes. OpsUI ships bidirectional sync for both Xero and MYOB via the Finance & Accounting module — wired against your accounting tenant during rollout rather than installed from an app marketplace. Customers, items, chart of accounts and tax codes flow from your accounting system into OpsUI; sales invoices, credit notes, payment status updates and inventory adjustments flow back. Built on the Xero REST API + webhooks and MYOB's AccountRight Live + Business APIs. Full sync detail at opsui.co.nz/integrations/xero or opsui.au/integrations/xero. A documented REST API on every module is also available for custom integration.

Where is OpsUI customer data hosted?

New Zealand customer data is hosted in New Zealand. Australian customer data is hosted in Australia. Both regions are encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3, with role-based access control and full audit logging.

How long does an OpsUI rollout take?

Honest answer: it depends on your data, integrations, and team availability. Every business is different. We don't quote a fixed timeline on the website because we'd be inventing a number. We scope your specific implementation during the demo. Enterprise rollouts use a stage plan: scope, configure, train, launch, one module set at a time.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. You can try OpsUI free right now with no signup and no email. Open https://app.opsui.co.nz/login?demo=1 (New Zealand) or https://app.opsui.au/login?demo=1 (Australia), pick a role, and explore the full product with seeded sample data.

OpsUI vs CartonCloud

Modular ERP, WMS & CRM versus a 3PL and transport-first warehouse system

In one line

OpsUI is a modular ERP, WMS & CRM for Australian operations with flat per-module pricing, while CartonCloud is a 3PL and transport-first warehouse management system priced on a licence plus per-transaction usage model with add-ons.

CartonCloud is one of the best-known warehouse and transport management systems in the Australian 3PL market. It was built for logistics providers: multi-client warehousing, freight and transport management, automated rate calculation, and client invoicing all sit at the centre of the product. If you run a 3PL or a transport-led operation, it is a name you will hear constantly.

OpsUI takes a different starting point. It is a modular ERP, WMS and CRM where you buy only the modules you need a la carte, on flat monthly pricing. Warehouse operators get receiving, inventory, wave and zone picking, slotting, cycle counting, shipping and exceptions; and when the business grows into order management, CRM, procurement or returns, those modules are already there to switch on without changing platforms.

The pricing models are the clearest difference. CartonCloud is licence-based with per-transaction usage charges and feature add-ons, so the bill tracks your throughput and the modules you bolt on. OpsUI is flat modular pricing from A$299/module/mo (see /pricing), so the cost is the same whether you ship 500 orders or 50,000 in a given month.

If you are scanning CartonCloud competitors rather than a single head-to-head, the honest ANZ field is small: OpsUI as a modular ERP/WMS you grow into, Access Mintsoft and Microlistics at the established 3PL end, and Datapel for MYOB and Xero-native warehouse control. We map that whole field, and where CartonCloud stays the right answer, at /compare/cartoncloud-alternatives-anz, and cover how the wider 3PL software stack fits together at /blog/3pl-software-anz.

This page compares them honestly. CartonCloud is genuinely strong for transport-first and freight-heavy 3PLs and for getting a standalone WMS live fast; OpsUI is the better fit when you want predictable flat pricing and room to grow into a wider ERP and CRM without re-platforming. Both views are below.

Side by side

OpsUI vs CartonCloud, feature by feature.

	OpsUI	CartonCloud
Pricing model	Flat per-module monthly pricing; starter packs from A$499/month, additional users A$99/month, cost does not move with order or transaction volume	Licence plus per-transaction usage charges, with feature add-ons billed on top, bill scales with throughput and modules added
Product scope	Modular ERP, WMS and CRM — buy warehouse modules now, add inventory, order management, CRM, procurement, returns and finance later on the same platform	WMS and transport management system, focused on warehouse and freight operations rather than broad ERP/CRM
Target buyer	AU operations, warehouse and ops-finance teams, in-house warehouses and 3PLs that want one platform they can grow into	3PLs, freight and transport operators, and warehouses that need multi-client billing first
Multi-client 3PL billing	Handled through the order management, shipping/outbound and business-rules-engine modules; can model per-client rules and charges	Core strength, multi-client warehousing, automated rate calculation and client invoicing are central to the product
Transport / freight management	Shipping/outbound and route-optimization modules cover outbound dispatch and routing; not a dedicated freight-first TMS	Dedicated transport management with consignment, manifesting and freight rating built in
Client portal	Dashboards and reporting module plus role-based access; client-facing views configured per deployment	Built-in customer portal for 3PL clients to lodge and track orders
AU carriers	Carrier integrations are wired during rollout (direct API, aggregator or file-based). Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll and others, plus the Shippit aggregator, run through the shipping/outbound module. NZ Couriers is the one live carrier API today, with the method confirmed during scoping	Broad AU carrier and freight integrations as a logistics-focused WMS/TMS
Finance integration	Keep Xero, MYOB or NetSuite, add OpsUI as the operations layer; bidirectional NetSuite sync is live, Xero and MYOB sync wired during rollout via the finance-accounting module	Integrates with accounting packages such as Xero and MYOB to push invoices for client billing
Add-on / module fees	Each module is a known flat price; no per-transaction surcharge as volume grows	Additional features and capacity are typically add-on charges on top of the base licence
AU hosting and support	AU-hosted production data, AUD billing on opsui.au, AU business-hours support, Melbourne presence (engineering HQ in Wainui, NZ)	Australian-built logistics platform with AU market focus and support
CRM	Customer-relationship-management module available on the same platform	Not a CRM, focused on warehouse and transport operations

Honest pick

When CartonCloud is the better fit

You run a pure 3PL or transport-led business and freight management, consignments, manifesting, automated rate calculation and client invoicing, is the core of what you sell.
You need a freight-first transport management system with deep carrier and consignment handling, not an operations layer that treats shipping as one module among many.
You want a standalone, logistics-specific WMS live very fast, with multi-client warehousing and a client portal that are proven in the AU 3PL market.
Your billing model genuinely is per-transaction, and you would rather pay in line with throughput than commit to flat module pricing — and you do not need broader ERP or CRM on the same platform.

Where OpsUI wins

When OpsUI is the better fit

You want predictable flat pricing that does not climb with order or transaction volume, so a busy month does not produce a surprise bill.
You need more than a WMS over time, inventory, order management, procurement, returns, CRM and reporting, and want to add modules a la carte rather than re-platform onto a separate ERP later.
You run an in-house warehouse (not only a 3PL) and want serious WMS depth, wave and zone picking, slotting optimisation, cycle counting and exceptions management, without paying per transaction to use it.
You want to keep Xero, MYOB or NetSuite for finance and bolt OpsUI on as the operations layer, with bidirectional NetSuite sync live today and Xero/MYOB sync wired during rollout.
You want AU-hosted production data, AUD billing and AU business-hours support, with the option to centralise warehouse, shipping and customer data in one platform instead of stitching add-ons together.

ANZ context

OpsUI bills in AUD on opsui.au, with Australian production data hosted in Australia and AU business-hours support delivered from a Melbourne presence (engineering HQ is in Wainui, north of Auckland). GST and BAS handling flow through to your finance system, keep Xero, MYOB or NetSuite and let OpsUI handle operations. Carrier integrations are wired during rollout (direct API, aggregator or file-based). Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll and others, plus the Shippit aggregator, run through the shipping/outbound module, with the method confirmed during scoping. NZ Couriers is the one live carrier API today.

Common questions

What buyers ask before choosing.

Is OpsUI a good CartonCloud alternative in Australia?

For Australian operators who want flat, predictable module pricing and the option to grow beyond a WMS into inventory, order management, CRM and procurement on one platform, yes. CartonCloud remains a strong choice for pure transport-first 3PLs whose core need is freight management and per-transaction client billing. OpsUI is honest about that distinction.

How does OpsUI pricing differ from CartonCloud's?

CartonCloud uses a licence plus per-transaction usage model with feature add-ons, so the bill tracks throughput and the modules you bolt on. OpsUI is flat: individual modules from A$299/module/month, starter packs from A$499/month, and additional users at A$99/month. The cost is the same whether you ship a quiet or a peak month.

Can OpsUI handle multi-client 3PL warehousing?

OpsUI can model multi-client warehousing using its order management, shipping/outbound and business-rules-engine modules to apply per-client rules and charges. CartonCloud was purpose-built for 3PL multi-client billing and freight rating, so for a freight-first 3PL that is its core strength. For an in-house or hybrid warehouse that also wants inventory, CRM and reporting, OpsUI keeps it on one platform.

Does OpsUI work with Australian carriers like Australia Post and StarTrack?

Carrier integrations are wired during rollout (direct API, aggregator or file-based) through the shipping/outbound module, with the method confirmed during scoping. NZ Couriers is the one live carrier API today; Australia Post, StarTrack, Sendle, Toll, DHL, Aramex, CouriersPlease and the Shippit aggregator come through that rollout.

Do I have to replace my accounting system to use OpsUI?

No. The whole idea is to keep your finance system, Xero, MYOB or NetSuite, and add OpsUI as the operations layer for warehouse, inventory, orders, shipping and CRM. Bidirectional NetSuite sync is live in production; bidirectional Xero and MYOB sync is wired during rollout via the finance-accounting module.

Who are CartonCloud's main competitors in Australia?

For per-client 3PL billing and built-in transport, CartonCloud's closest competitors are Access Mintsoft and Microlistics at the established end, plus OpsUI as a modular ERP/WMS that trades a dedicated freight-first TMS for predictable flat pricing and room to grow into inventory, orders and CRM. Datapel competes on the MYOB and Xero-native warehouse side rather than transport. The full field, and where CartonCloud remains the right call, is at /compare/cartoncloud-alternatives-anz.
