What It Is

EASYBEER is a vertical SaaS management platform built for craft breweries. Its goal is to bring daily brewery operations—production, inventory, orders, invoicing, returnable keg deposits, accounting, and customs/industry declarations—into a single interface, replacing paper records and Excel. The official website emphasizes that the product has been developed in collaboration with craft breweries and has been under continuous development for around 10 years.

Core Features and Business Coverage

Based on the main product description, EASYBEER’s core value lies in connecting the full workflow “from production to invoicing.” Raw material purchasing, brewing batches, inventory, order intake, delivery, electronic invoicing, returnable keg management, DRM, and accounting processes can all be linked within the same system. For craft breweries, these scenarios are more industry-specific than a generic inventory or sales management tool—for example, recipe confidentiality, keg deposits, French alcohol declarations, and electronic invoicing rules.

Pricing, Trial, and Deployment

The official website discloses limited pricing information. It only clearly states that a 1-month free trial is available with no commitment; no formal plans, prices, per-user billing, or brewery-size-based pricing details are shown. The system supports access from computers, tablets, and smartphones, and offers automatic updates, daily backups, and secure access, making it appear more like a cloud-based SaaS deployment. Whether self-hosted on-premises deployment is supported is not specified.

Security, Integrations, and Collaboration

On the security side, the product page mentions data confidentiality, recipe security, daily backups, and secure access. For compliance, electronic invoicing supports Factur-X and PPF, and the platform covers French local business requirements such as DRM. Integration capabilities are disclosed only in limited detail. Apart from electronic invoicing-related standards, there is no clear information about connections with accounting software, e-commerce platforms, payment systems, logistics providers, or POS systems. Team permissions, role-based workflows, approval flows, and API/developer support are also not clearly documented.

Pros, Cons, and Who It’s For

The advantages are its strong industry focus, end-to-end workflow coverage, simple and intuitive interface positioning, and its ability to help small or growing craft breweries reduce Excel-related errors. The drawbacks are limited pricing transparency, lack of information on open integrations and permissions, and a feature set that is clearly designed around the French regulatory environment. It is best suited to craft breweries in France or French-speaking regions. For breweries in China, key points to verify would include network accessibility, language support, compatibility with local tax invoicing, payments, and accounting systems. Accessibility from China cannot be determined from the official website, so hands-on trial testing is recommended. Local alternatives may include Kingdee, Yonyou, Jiandaoyun, Huoban, or food and beverage industry ERP systems.
