Aleran Software Expands Avalara Tax Compliance Integration 

Aleran’s digital commerce platform expands its footprint with Avalara to help manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors sell smarter by making tax compliance faster, easier, and more accurate 

Minneapolis — December 30, 2024 — Aleran Software, a leading digital commerce platform for B2B and complex manufacturers built to accelerate and digitize sales, expanded its integration with Avalara tax compliance software, simplifying the complexity of tax compliance while selling online. 

Aleran has been a certified technology partner since 2023. Its continued seamless integration with Avalara, a leading provider of tax compliance automation software for business of all sizes, ensures manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors have peace of mind for tracking rules across geographies and jurisdictions – no separate spreadsheet tracking and no costly manual errors. Returns, exemption certificates, and more are all managed by Avalara. 

“As manufacturers plan for 2025, they are also eyeing operations and compliance priorities to enable sales growth and efficiency,” said Aleran CEO Alex Sayyah. “Yet, navigating the complex world of sales tax can be a headache for any B2B manufacturer. For those manufacturers thinking about selling online – or expanding to a multi-channel sales approach – having repeatable, consistent processes with Aleran and Avalara enables greater quality control, minimizing risks to compliance.” 

The manufacturing industry faces several key challenges for achieving tax compliance, including:

• Tracking SKUs that cross tax rules and vary based on state or country 
• Getting the rates right and filling correct reports 
• Keeping track of all compliance requirements, including smaller jurisdictions and districts  
• Knowing what is and is not taxable 

Aleran’s integration with Avalara automates these requirements for manufacturers, eliminating a barrier to broader e-commerce adoption and opening new market opportunities. 

“Manufacturers have been slow to digitize their sales processes because of the belief that their products are too complex to sell online and out of concern that selling online will increase sales and operations costs, including managing tax compliance,” said Aleran VP of Product Tarak Patel. “However, our customers have found with our customer-centric approach to B2B sales, they can quickly and easily achieve significant gains in sales efficiency and decreased operational costs.”
