ERPNext Reviews

Best Open Source ERP that is better than even paid ERPs

Pros:

the look and feel of ERPNext is very appealing. it is inline with the present best practices, followed in UI/UX.

Cons:

The software can integrate with some of the open source PLM Tool like Oddo, and open Source MES and IOT tools. this can create a complete opensorce ecosystem for business

An experience using ERPNext in a hardware product startup in the E-Mobility Space

Pros:

The fact that the software is well integrated with a wide variety of modules. Other ERP systems would end up with us having a multitude of different softwares each handling their own niche, and all tied together by just Single Sign On. Here, I am able to provide everyone in the company with a login to the ERP system and have access to not just ERP features, but also Project Management, a Wiki and a Learning Managment System.

Cons:

The HR and Payroll Module can improve quite a bit. The way incentive payments are handled require external programming to design an automated performance based pay. Leaves are also not mutable if a mistake was made during the Leave Policy Assignment which was realised only half-way through the year. This also doesn't allow for a leave policy for a person to be changed in the middle of the leave policy period. This is quite important considering the constant switching of employees between Work From Home, Hybrid and Remote, each of which will have a different leave policy within the company.

This is a fantastic ERP system that offers a lot of flexibility.

Pros:

ERPNext uses many effective methods used globally and offers established ways to manage common business tasks like creating invoices, monitoring payments, and handling returns. Our company relies on ERPNext to store all our business information, and we don't use any spreadsheets.

Cons:

Although ERPNext is a global system, it may not include all the features specific to your country. For instance, if you're from Germany, you may find that some features are missing, which could make your work more convenient. However, ERPNext is still valuable and continues to be updated regularly.

Easy to use, and highly customizable, but plauged by bugs.

Comments: The product has great potential! I wish the frappe org would focus more on all the technical debt, rather than new features. Unfortunately, they generally get paid for new features by customers, not for fixing bad code.

Pros:

I love the ability to customize forms, while it could be easier, it sure is nice to make changes without code.

Cons:

Bugs. Unfortunately, open source means that some code is not high quality. Another factor is the poor management of Git pull requests. I've created several bug fixes that languished until deactivated by automated robot after a month or two with little response from product owners. Many of these bugs are quite serious, particularly around the payroll module. Many, less serious and obvious issues, exist over major versions without resolution.

The best choice for teams that have some technical knowledge in house

Comments: The community is vibrant and fast. There are telegram messenger groups for live communication. There is a super active forum platform. And there is a structured and well maintained github project. If you want to be part of this community, it's easy to get rolling.

Pros:

The extensibility and flexibility of ERPNext is unrivaled. Every field you create becomes instantly available as an API point in the powerful interface of the ERP software. All relevant core features of an ERP system are mature and help you learn to do it the right way as a company. The team is rigid and consequent in making sure, that this streamlined process of creating opportunities, quotations, sales orders and sales invoices is kept intact which is very healthy and keeps customizations sane.

Cons:

ERPNext is not yet easy and straight forward to use. If you have no idea of ERP software and you have no technical skills at all this is not for you. I would love to see the team focus more on the UX of the interface and the ease of use for new and very occasional users. The software feels like it's really made for experts and daily users. That said, we have compared ERPNext with Salesforce and SAP and the open source solution really shines in comparison. But having all the ERP world suck at UX does not mean that this is an unsolvable problem. Also the documentation of ERPNext is not job or use case driven and very technical at times. We have started to try to help this. But it's easy to ask and not so easy to deliver. Work in progress ...

ERPNEXT honest review

Comments: Overall experience has been very impressed since I have the dynamics nav background and can compare the two

Pros:

That it is open source and has all the features of a proprietary ERP like dynamics nav. Is ease to implement, support and customize due to the fact that it uses only open source code , python js etc

Cons:

I think the documentation can be improved but it has come along way since inception and they are on a good path of updating docs

Simple, Easy, and Powerfull.

Comments: Fantastic product for any kind of business.

Pros:

Very easy to use, very easy to customize, very easy to integrate with. Robust business cycles.

Cons:

Nothing least, I have not faced any difficulty or problems with this software for 10 years now working with all its versions in different businesses.

ERPNext is a truly open-sourced ERP system.

Pros:

The feature we like about ERPNext is that it is a solid ERP system. All modules are available to use and can work without customization.

Cons:

It does not have recommended POS hardware solution.

ERPNext - you name it and you have it - almost all the functionalities in a single application

Comments: Its an all-in-one application. Just go for it!

Pros:

The ability to customize the ERP as per the need.

Cons:

Documentation can further be optimized, on which the Frappe Team & active contributors are constantly working.

ERP review

Pros:

It is good for the management of organizational resources and activities and planning as it's automated

Cons:

The software has no disadvantage so far as it saves us a lot of time.

Most Efficient ERP

Pros:

Free and Open Source Being a FOSS lover, the best part I see with ERPNext its a truly fully open souce, you will get all the modules available, unlike other companies claim to be open source but they arn't. Communication Tracking of communication of internal team and clients was a big challenge for our organization, the way this is handled in ERPNext is so simple and intuitive. Dynamic Customization One need not to wait for the application developer to change the layout of screen, add or change new fields in transactions, designing of print formats and layouts, all such stuff is managed dynamically. Payment Gateways Using this facility we have noticed an increase of 10% in payment collection from the customer, we use razor pay payment gateway with ERPNext so after creating an invoice one can send payment request to customer and after the customer paid the invoice your account gets updated.

Cons:

With FOSS projects, its natural to have more support issues, and there is not guarantee of time that when your issue will get addressed.

Great Product Thanks for the hard work !

Pros:

Open source, very modular, developer friendly, user friendly

Cons:

Poor user portal, leak of deep dev documentation especialy for the js (client) side

Best ERP out there

Comments: ERPNext has been a huge asset in our business

Pros:

Not too expensive and very customizable. Not too hard to learn

Cons:

Manufacturing could be improve and analytics

Best Business Management Product out there

Pros:

Easy to Use Highly CustomizablI e Single Software to manage complete business cycle

Cons:

I am not seeing much con in the software

ERPNext

Comments: I have been using ERPNext in my business very effectively to track inventory (and serial numbers) across multiple warehouses. I appreciate the ability to repack and to maintain delivery and installation information.

Pros:

The Team is constantly improving this software and listening to their user base. I can almost always find an answer to my questions in the community forums. I look forward to new features.

Cons:

Some functions are designed to address specific needs in foreign countries. It isn't always obvious how to adapt a function to meet your own criteria. Some features are lacking, especially if you are accustomed to batch processing.

Satisfied with performance but expensive for small companies.

Pros:

I love how easy and speedy we can make quotations for our customers and the professonal look of the documents they get from our company.

Cons:

My company is very small and sometimes I feel the software is too big for our needs, I believe a light version with cheaper cost could be ideal, in fact with the new pricing structure I will probably need to find another affordable option in the future, these days with our economy suffering due to a post pandemic crisis and the current unneeded war we need to save on everything in order to survive as a company.

The best ERP for small and medium size companies

Comments: In overall, ERPNext is an amazing product, I use it every day and I feel so good with the platform

Pros:

Open Source Easy to use A lot of modules available inside the platform such as Education, Non Profit, Agriculture, etc Growing community Active forum to discuss any issue

Cons:

As an active Open Source project a lot of times We face a lot of features requirements that are not so great to have in our system. Also, the permission system is a little bit complicated

Best Open Source ERP

Pros:

Opensource: today is a must for an ERP Web-based: the only way to be used by everyone, everywhere Solid: even if it is a rather new software, it has already reached a good level of stability Big community: look on github

Cons:

Too fast updating: Unfortunately, an ERP is a complex system and its most important capacity is to be able to adapt to different scenarios (each company has its own characteristics). AGILE and open source development pay the price of continuous updates that must be managed carefully, especially if you made low-level customizations.
