Give customers the power to design what they want — and give your team the tools to fulfill it efficiently.
🤔 What Is a Made-to-Order (M2O) System?
An M2O system lets your customers (or internal team) configure products with:
- Custom dimensions (e.g. 120 cm × 150 cm)
- Options like materials, colors, or accessories
- Instant pricing
- Work orders ready for production
You can sell everything from custom doors to designer tables — all made on demand.
