Industry FAQ

Frequently asked questions about WMS for small warehouses

When is a WMS worthwhile for a small warehouse?

A WMS pays off as soon as Excel and paper no longer deliver reliable stock levels, search times and picking errors are increasing or mobile, guided processes become necessary. Even small warehouses then benefit from clear storage bins, guided picking and an always up-to-date stock rather than manual list keeping.

What does COGLAS cost for small companies?

COGLAS offers a lean entry-level start from €490/month and is explicitly suited to small teams from one user upwards. This keeps the start predictable without a heavy upfront investment. The exact scope is best clarified through a quick check and a demo.

How quick is the entry?

A go-live with COGLAS is possible within a few days. Instead of a months-long major project, you start flexibly with proven standard processes. The prerequisites are clean master data and a clearly defined starter scope, which can be extended step by step later.

Do you need an in-house IT team?

Not for the cloud variant. COGLAS WEB WMS is operated as SaaS and used in the browser, no in-house IT team is needed for installation and operation. The on-premises variant does require internal IT because it runs in your own data center. The quick check clarifies which variant is right for you.

Can the system grow with us?

Yes. COGLAS has a flexible architecture and scales with your warehouse: you start with the necessary scope and add processes when needed. Rising item, order and user numbers can be handled just as easily as later expansion to multiple warehouses and clients.

Can a small warehouse start without an in-house IT team?

Yes. A small warehouse can start with COGLAS WEB WMS as long as the first process scope is clearly defined. The web-based use case enables a lean entry with no local installation. In the COGLAS fit check we work out together whether cloud or on-premises operation makes sense and which processes should go live first.

How does an affordable WMS start stay future-proof?

The entry stays future-proof when it is not just an item list that gets digitized but storage bins, stock levels, pick processes, shipping and integrations are set up cleanly. COGLAS can be extended flexibly, so small teams can start and later add extra warehouses, users or clients.
