Choose EasyRoutes for Web if you don’t use Shopify or prefer a standalone planner. Import orders from spreadsheets (CSV), connect webhook events to Zapier for no-code automations, or integrate directly with our API to push/pull data programmatically. It’s ideal for delivery teams moving off manual tools and wanting automation without switching e-commerce platforms.
See: Import orders from CSV · API: Getting Started · Zapier webhooks
