About in-lite

In-lite is a high-end Dutch brand specializing in low-voltage outdoor lighting systems. Their mission: to inspire as many people as possible to transform their outdoor spaces with premium lighting. Designed to be both beautiful and user-friendly, in-lite ’s modular lighting system eliminates the need for electricians, making it an ideal solution for both landscaping professionals and end customers. Since its founding in 1999, the company has grown into an industry leader known for product design, quality, and innovation.

Today, in-lite operates across Europe and is expanding rapidly into North America. With a broad dealer network and showroom gardens that highlight its impact, in-lite is scaling quickly and sustainably, powered by the right digital foundations.

Why in-lite chose Alumio

Before Alumio, in-lite used an integration platform from Valantic, but it quickly became a bottleneck. Integrations lacked transparency, and any changes had to go through external developers. In essence, troubleshooting was slow, and scaling was nearly impossible.

In-lite needed control, clarity, and flexibility. With Alumio, they gained a platform they could fully own; one that offered transparent, real-time insights, easier troubleshooting, and the freedom to build and scale integrations in-house.

What Alumio helped in-lite integrate

With Alumio, in-lite connected a complex and growing landscape of business-critical systems, including:

  • Magento (e-commerce platform)
  • SAP Business One (ERP)
  • HubSpot (CRM)
  • InRiver (PIM)
  • ShipHero (3PL in North America)
  • Spotler (MailPlus) (Email marketing automation)

Additionally, in-lite is actively adding new systems and APIs as part of their international expansion strategy.

How in-lite used the Alumio platform

From product data flows to order fulfillment and price synchronization, Alumio now acts as the digital backbone of in-lite’s operations. The team manages over 66 active routes through Alumio, covering everything from simple mappings to complex logic.

Highlights of their use include:
  • Real-time product sync: InRiver updates such as product specs, manuals, and media are pushed to Magento using Alumio’s webhook functionality.
  • Personalized pricing: SAP Business One price lists are synced to Magento customer groups, allowing customers to see personalized prices upon login.
  • Multi-system data flows: Orders, customer data, and inventory updates move seamlessly between Magento, SAP, ShipHero, and more.
  • Integrated email campaigns: New app signups are sent to Spotler via Alumio, including language preferences for localized targeting.

Beyond integration speed, Alumio’s monitoring and error-handling features also proved invaluable to the team, offering them complete visibility across their entire IT landscape and allowing them to take ownership of their integrations.

Alumio has helped in-lite reduce errors, improve efficiency, and prepare for the challenges of scaling globally. Internal operations are more streamlined, order delays have decreased, and new integrations can be added quickly, thus keeping the business agile.

In-lite is now future-ready thanks to Alumio, and, as they scale into international markets with more languages, pricing strategies, and logistics requirements, Alumio provides a stable foundation that adapts to change.
