The e-commerce data problem

Every platform has its own version of performance

When those systems are reviewed separately, teams can see individual channel metrics but struggle to connect customer acquisition, product performance, inventory, fulfilment, returns, and real financial outcomes.

  • Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, or other storefront platforms
  • Marketplaces
  • Google / Meta / other advertising platforms
  • Payment gateways
  • Inventory / warehouse systems
  • Fulfilment and shipping platforms
  • CRM / email marketing tools
  • Finance and accounting systems

What Datazeb can deliver

  1. E-commerce Performance Dashboards

    Connect revenue, orders, customers, products, channels, marketing, inventory, and fulfilment into one commercial view.

  2. Product & Category Analytics

    Understand revenue, units, margin, returns, stock, velocity, and performance by product, SKU, category, or brand.

  3. Customer Analytics

    Track acquisition, repeat purchase, cohort behaviour, retention indicators, segments, and customer value where data allows.

  4. Marketing & Channel Reporting

    Bring paid media and channel data closer to actual commercial outcomes instead of viewing advertising platforms in isolation.

  5. Inventory & Availability Analytics

    Connect stock, sell-through, product availability, ageing, stockouts, and replenishment indicators.

  6. Order & Fulfilment Analytics

    Track order flow, cancellations, returns, shipping, fulfilment, and operational exceptions.

  7. Data Integration

    Connect storefronts, marketplaces, ad platforms, payments, CRM, inventory, finance, APIs, files, and databases.

    Reduce recurring manual exports and notify teams when commercial or operational conditions need attention.

Typical e-commerce challenges

  • Revenue totals differ between storefront, payment, and finance systems
  • Advertising performance is disconnected from margin and fulfilment cost
  • Product performance is hard to compare across channels
  • Inventory and online availability are not aligned
  • Returns and cancellations are not included consistently in reporting
  • Customer acquisition data is separated from repeat-purchase behaviour
  • Marketplace and direct-to-consumer reporting use different product structures
  • Management reporting requires manual exports from multiple platforms
  • Data refreshes are slow or unreliable
  • Leaders have plenty of metrics but no trusted commercial view
Revenue and order analytics

Understand sales after cancellations, returns and channel complexity

The exact revenue definition should be agreed with finance so commercial reporting aligns with the organisation's accounting logic.

  • Gross and net revenue
  • Order volume
  • Average order value
  • Units per order
  • Discount activity
  • Returns and cancellations
  • Revenue by channel
  • Revenue by region
  • Period-on-period trends
  • Order-status analysis
Product and SKU analytics

See which products are creating demand – and which are tying up inventory

Product master data should be aligned across storefront, marketplaces, inventory, and finance before cross-channel reporting is treated as reliable.

  • Revenue by product / SKU
  • Units sold
  • Sell-through
  • Margin where cost data is available
  • Return rate
  • Stock availability
  • Sales velocity
  • Slow-moving products
  • Category / brand performance
  • Channel-specific product performance
Customer and retention analytics

Look beyond first purchase

Where customer-level data is available and appropriate, Datazeb can support analysis around:

  • New vs returning customers
  • Repeat purchase
  • Purchase frequency
  • Cohort behaviour
  • Customer segments
  • Average customer value
  • Geographic patterns
  • Product affinity
  • Retention indicators
Marketing and acquisition reporting

Connect advertising activity to commercial outcomes

Advertising platforms are useful for campaign optimisation, but management reporting should also consider actual orders, returns, margin, and customer behaviour.

  • Spend by channel / campaign
  • Traffic and conversion
  • Cost per acquisition where definitions are aligned
  • Revenue linked to acquisition source where attribution is available
  • New vs returning customer mix
  • Product / category performance by channel
  • Campaign trend analysis
Inventory and availability

Growth is constrained when the right products are unavailable

Outcome: commercial teams can connect product demand with what the business can actually fulfil.

  • Stock on hand
  • Available inventory
  • Stockouts
  • Days of stock
  • Sales velocity
  • Slow-moving stock
  • Ageing
  • Product availability by channel
  • Replenishment indicators
  • Inventory vs demand trends
Fulfilment, shipping and returns

The sale is not complete when the order is placed

These measures help explain why top-line sales performance may not translate into equally strong customer or financial outcomes.

  • Order-to-dispatch time
  • Fulfilment status
  • Shipping status
  • Delivery performance where available
  • Cancellations
  • Returns
  • Refunds
  • Exception reasons
  • Fulfilment provider / warehouse comparison
Marketplace and multi-channel reporting

Standardise reporting across channels without losing channel-specific detail

Datazeb can create common product, channel, customer, and order structures while retaining the detail required to understand each channel.

  • Direct website sales
  • Retail / POS where relevant
  • Wholesale or B2B
  • Social commerce
  • Regional storefronts
