ERPNext enables better visibility into different operations and facilitates us for informed decision-making.

Sales Manager

The software is easy to use with some awesome customizable features which help in tracking projects, managing sales, ERP among other features.

The range of available integrations might be more limited compared to some other ERP solutions.

External Software Architecture 

Generally a new version changes all the database structure, then so many different scripts have to be constructed to migrate the business data to the new version. And in general the procedures indicated by ErpNext don't work easily.

Manage relationships with contractors, suppliers, and service providers.

To do that I has to integrate this solution with the local laws for invoices, human resources, taxes, etc.

Founder x Chief Digital Officer

It being truly open source (without hidden sudden charges) made it really appealing as it can really allow teams to have a business management platform without having to bloat their OPEX

Dirctor

Secondly, customization options are almost limitless and you don't need to be from an IT background to carry out some of the basic changes as per your business requirement.

Everything, from UI to development, practical software which full fill all the requirements of Enterprises in every domain.

Agile, scalable, robust, economical, customizable,

MANAGER

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.

Director

This also doesn't allow for a leave policy for a person to be changed in the middle of the leave policy period.

Head of Operations

Since it's open source, the documentation on their website is very detailed that helped us implement and troubleshoot problems by ourselves.

Business Consultant

They need to work on building a strong partner network who can handhold the users, train and coach them.

Touches all aspects of the business needs, Wherever short have possibilities to extend and expand, Customisable.

Software Engineer

The navigation between screen should be improvised so that user can back to main screen while navigating to other screen

Leaves are also not mutable if a mistake was made during the Leave Policy Assignment which was realised only half-way through the year.

Partner

If implementation process is simplified and support is given by ur team then people will be happy to refer erpnext to others

Business Analyst

ERPNext allows for extensibility and customization.

Poorly implemented tools such as accounts reconciliation if compared to Quickbooks for example

Responsable de Production

Custom scripts can be added to perform automated tasks.

Manager

It is the only ERP system that I have use that can be easily deployed and get people trained on it in just a few days

Owner

Really, if you can think of it you can probably do it with this software; it may take some work but there is so much power in this system for what you pay.

Project Engineer 

Also the customer support isn't great and also the server keeps crashing most of the times.

Consultant

No-code as well as full-code(Python) customisation.

Owner Consultant 

Is ease to implement, support and customize due to the fact that it uses only open source code , python js etc

It's easy to see the status of a document at a glance and to move it to the next step of the process.

General Manager

One subscription provides you with all modules that you need.

No one can edit or delete any entry once it is submitted

The freedom to customize freely is now being eroded in v13+

Technology Manager

The ability to customize the ERP as per the need.

Just providing great tech is not enough, implementation and ongoing consulting/ coaching of users is MUST.

President

Unfortunately, they generally get paid for new features by customers, not for fixing bad code.

Sane default configs, data models for common use cases.

Another factor is the poor management of Git pull requests.  

The only draw back is that's its python based might not be feasible for other companies.

Tables are not easily readable and the scrolling is painful.

This area of the system needs some attention from the development or documentation teams.

It’s great out of the box but customization is not as intuitive.

It took less time to report a bug and get it solved in the past......

Managing Director

Frappe framework on which ERPNext is built has lots of great features and keeps evolving

IT Officer

All modules are available to use and can work without customization.

The fact that the software is well integrated with a wide variety of modules.

Depending on the team's processes and learning abilities, the adoption could take time.

Able to integrate fairly easily with API access.

Unfortunately, open source means that some code is not high quality.  

Deputy Manager (SCM)

It is a cost-effective ERP system with all the features in place that give seamless & effective business operations.

IT Consultant

Ease of use, flexible, and highly configurable option is the key to the success of ERPNext.

Price, functionality, running environment, sync

Flexibility to have as many users as required.

They find navigation and visual design appealing. However, they note that advanced customizations can require technical skills and some navigation aspects could be improved.
