B2Brouter

Overview

B2Brouter is a cloud service for exchanging electronic invoices and related commercial documents across local and international business workflows. It is a strong fit for companies and developers that need to connect invoicing with several systems or comply with different recipient requirements. Its breadth is useful, but the free plan’s 24-transaction annual ceiling is too low for most active businesses.

Key features

B2Brouter converts e-invoices to formats and requirements used by recipients and local regulations, with tax validation and access to Peppol. Supported formats include UBL, CII, Peppol BIS, Facturae, XRechnung, ZUGFeRD, Factur-X, Svefaktura, FatturaPA and EDI. This range suits businesses working across markets or public-sector networks; a company with a simple, single-market workflow may not need it.

Recurring, simplified, pro forma and corrective invoices cover varied billing needs. Product catalogs, SEPA mandate management, OCR document digitization and activity reports extend the service beyond basic invoice exchange. Its network connections include Peppol, FACeB2B, Spanish General Entry Points, SDI, FE-AP/ESPAP, Chorus Pro/PDP and ePrior, which can help businesses route documents through the networks their counterparties use.

Integrations include Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Sage, WooCommerce, SAP, Odoo, Zoho, NetSuite and Oracle Cloud ERP. The API lets developers connect an ERP, ecommerce platform or custom application to create, query and send documents automatically. For high-volume operations, eDocExchange adds ERP integration, bulk imports, multiple formats and delivery channels, and management of multiple company accounts under one subscription.

ISO/IEC 27001 certification and Spain’s National Security Framework certification support its case for organizations with security and compliance requirements. Its services run on its own infrastructure or providers in Germany and France within the EU, unless otherwise notified with applicable safeguards.

Pricing

Basic costs 0.00 EUR per free, billed forever. It includes up to 10 contacts, one user and up to 24 transactions per year; sent invoices, received invoices and tax reports all count toward that quota. It is suitable for low-volume evaluation or occasional use, but the annual cap makes it a poor fit for routine business invoicing.

Professional costs 110.00 EUR per year, billed annual + taxes. It removes the contact and invoice-sending and receiving limits, but allows two users. That is the more practical step up for a small operation that needs regular transactions without a larger team.

Business costs 300.00 EUR per year, billed annual + taxes. It keeps unlimited contacts and invoice sending and receiving while raising the allowance to 10 users, making it the better fit for a team that needs shared access. Support through the in-app incident reporting system is included across Basic, Professional and Business.

eDocExchange has custom pricing, determined by transaction volume and selected tier; each tier includes a specific number of transactions. It targets high-volume organizations needing advanced integrations and multiple-company handling, rather than businesses looking for a fixed public price. A free trial is available.

Platforms

B2Brouter is available on the web and through an API, and is deployed in the cloud. The web service suits teams handling documents directly; the API is the relevant route for developers automating exchanges with connected business software.

Who it's for

B2Brouter identifies companies, software developers, tax advisors and freelancers among its audiences. Companies with cross-border or regulated invoicing needs stand to gain most from its format conversion, network reach and business-system integrations. Developers can use the API to automate document flows. Freelancers and smaller businesses can start on Basic, but should weigh its transaction cap against the cost of moving to a paid plan.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Broad format and network support helps businesses exchange invoices across different regulatory and delivery environments.
• Pro: ERP, ecommerce and API connections can fit document exchange into existing systems instead of keeping it separate.
• Pro: Business supports up to 10 users with unlimited invoice sending and receiving, at a stated annual price.
• Con: Basic’s 24 transactions per year include sent and received invoices and tax reports, so the free plan is restrictive for regular use.
• Con: Professional is limited to two users; teams needing more seats must pay for Business.
• Con: eDocExchange uses custom pricing, so high-volume buyers do not have a fixed public price to compare.

Verdict

B2Brouter is best for businesses and developers that need compliant e-invoice exchange across multiple networks, formats or business systems. Its broad integrations and API are the main reasons to choose it; the limited Basic quota and the need to move to annual paid plans for regular volume are the reasons to look elsewhere if invoicing needs are simple or budgets require predictable low-cost entry.
