What it is and who it's for
What is UppSales?
UppSales is an order-taking app built specifically for field sales reps. It lets you manage every piece of data tied to order taking — products, customers, price lists, customer-specific discounts, brand contracts — and capture orders directly during the customer visit, quickly and error-free. It's available on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and any web browser.
Who is UppSales designed for?
UppSales is built for four main profiles:
- Single-brand reps who want to digitize order taking and stop working in the evenings
- Multi-brand reps handling several brands with separate price lists and customers
- Sales agencies coordinating a team of reps
- Sales managers and companies that want real-time visibility on orders from the sales team
How is UppSales different from other sales rep apps?
The key difference is the ability to add products to the cart by tapping the codes directly inside the brand's PDF catalog. Without UppSales, the rep flips through the PDF, writes down product codes, then retypes them into the order by hand. With UppSales, you tap the code on the catalog and the product drops into the cart with the right price for that customer applied automatically. This completely changes the speed and accuracy of order taking during the visit.
What's the difference between UppSales and UppOrdini?
UppSales is built for reps — single- or multi-brand — managing several brands and customers. UppOrdini, on the other hand, is built for companies that want to monitor the performance of their sales network and optimize commercial flows. The two apps complement each other: UppSales for the rep in the field, UppOrdini for the company that wants full visibility on the network.
Is the app easy to use even without experience with business software?
Yes. UppSales is designed with a simple, intuitive interface, built for people who work in the field and don't want to waste time learning a complex tool. Most users are productive within the first day. The support team replies quickly and can guide you through the initial setup if needed.
Setup and first steps
How long does it take to start using UppSales?
Signing up takes a few minutes. Data import (products, customers, price lists) is very fast: the system is optimized to handle large datasets in seconds. The part of the initial setup that takes the most time is mapping the columns of your own Excel file — but it's a one-time operation. From then on, if the file keeps the same structure, you can reuse the saved mapping and complete everything in seconds.
How do I import products into UppSales?
Any entity (products, customers, price lists, brands) can be imported via Excel file, regardless of its origin:
- UppSales template format: the system recognizes it automatically — just start the import
- File from another app or system: map the columns once — the system saves them and reuses them automatically on every future import
- Manual entry: any entity can be added or edited directly in the app, even from a phone
How do I upload a PDF catalog into UppSales?
PDF catalogs are tied to brands: each brand can have one or more PDF catalogs assigned. Once the PDF is uploaded, the system automatically starts recognizing the product codes on the pages and links them to the products already in the catalog for that brand. The process is automatic and requires no manual intervention for recognized products.
Can I migrate from another sales rep app to UppSales?
Yes. If you already have your data in another app, you can export it to Excel and import it into UppSales. For datasets with special structures or complex migrations, the UppSales team can support you directly: we're a software company and have already handled several migrations from different systems.
Features
How many brands can I manage at the same time?
There's no limit on the number of brands. UppSales is built natively for multi-brand management: every brand has its own catalog, price lists and products kept separate, all accessible from a single interface. Switching from one brand to another during the same visit takes one tap, with no risk of mixing up products or prices across brands.
Can I set custom prices for every customer?
Yes. UppSales handles multiple price lists and customer-specific discounts — by single customer or customer group. When you open an order for a given customer, their price list and discounts apply automatically to every product. Zero manual math, zero risk of error. If needed, you can override the discount on a single order line without touching the customer's general rules.
Can I manage multiple reps from the same agency?
Yes. If you coordinate a team of reps, you can manage everything centrally: assign customers to reps, update catalogs and price lists for everyone at once, and monitor the whole team's orders from a single dashboard. Each rep only sees their assigned customers and brands.
How does sending an order to the brand work?
When the rep confirms an order, the system automatically generates the order confirmation and sends it via email to the brand and, if configured, to the customer. Format and recipients are configurable to fit each brand's needs.
Does UppSales support multiple currencies?
Yes. UppSales supports multi-currency. You can set price lists and orders in different currencies, picking the right one for each customer or market. More than 150 international currencies are supported today.
Can I use UppSales on multiple devices at the same time?
Yes. You can have UppSales installed on phone, tablet and computer, all synced in real time. If you start an order on the tablet during a visit and then want to review it in the browser back at the office, you'll find it exactly where you left it.
