When combined, the software will be the most comprehensive, affordable, and modern offering in the market.

Local Orbit customers moving to Local Line will enjoy access to all Local Line functionality including Quickbooks integration, customized pricing/product lists, multiple packing options, supplier purchase orders, customizable product categories, and standing/recurring orders. The merging of the two systems is expected to be fully complete by mid-late April 2019.
