The reality of most ERPs is this: they are overkill.

If you’re an SME business owner, you’ve probably felt like you’re running your ERP first then your business. There are a plethora of tasks to juggle— managing cash flows, tracking inventory, updating employee payroll — the business operations are endless. You’ve probably tried basic accounting software that don’t seem to do much for you, next you must have tried some of the big ERPs, but all you got was a complex system commanding you rather than your business.

The big ERPs you’ve tried weren’t built for your business; they were built for large enterprises with bloated budgets and dedicated IT teams. What you need is something that works for your business, not against it. This is where Accountrak comes in. Accountrak is a product of a professional CA firm with tech experts, making it uniquely positioned to offer a solution that understands both your financial and technical needs. It’s a simple and intuitive solution that gives you clarity, not clutter. Accountrak doesn’t overload you with unnecessary features—it’s built for you.

1. SAP ERP

You’ve done your research, or are probably doing it right now, that’s why you’re here. SAP is a beast — it’s the most popular ERP out there. Used mainly by large corporations with thousands of employees, SAP overpowers other ERPs in an instant. But that’s just it, SAP might be better suited to you if your business runs on a massive scale with vast operations and complex supply chains. But if you’re an SME, this beast is definitely an overkill. With a software of this intriguing size come greater responsibilities. SAP requires specialized consultants just to set up, and the learning curve is not just steep, it’s a pitfall, requiring weeks or even months of training. If you have the time and resources to take the chance on this beast, knowing it may or may not work for you, you’re free to do so. BUT we have an alternative for you, especially if you’re an SME business owner.

Accountrak offers a simple solution: simplicity. Sounds too simple? Well, that’s what it is! Really simple. Accountrak has no unnecessary features nor a complex design. The software design is intuitive; there is no learning curve, and you don’t need a full-fledged IT specialist to understand the software for you. What that means for you is that you get more time to focus on tasks that actually matter rather than dedicating weeks to understand your own ERP.

2. Oracle NetSuite

Oracle is an elite ERP with a collection of features that are not only impressive but expansive as well, perfect for large businesses with hefty budgets. Sounds really convincing, right? The disappointing reality is that NetSuite is renowned for blindsiding its customers with hidden costs; annual price hikes, add-on costs, third-party implementation costs and more. You settle for one price at the initiation and by the end of the year your invoice is heavier than expected; and despite all the payments, your team is still struggling to use it effectively.

Accountrak is an honest software — it’s not only devoid of hidden costs, it is also designed for easy use. Your annual invoice will be as expected and you can be rest assured that your team will intuitively use Accountrak with ease.

3. Microsoft Dynamics 365

Although a solid ERP, the downside of Dynamics 365 is that it’s embedded too deep in the Microsoft ecosystem. If your business operations do not include Outlook, Excel, Sharepoint etc. then you will feel locked out of your own ERP. To top it off, the interface complexity makes you feel more restricted, you are trapped in a system that is just not flexible.

Accountrak offers no such hurdles, it adapts to your business rather than the other way around. Whether or not you use Microsoft products, Accountrak smoothly integrates with the tools you are already using— you can run your business on your own terms.

4. Odoo
Hailed for being open-source, its flexibility may appeal to small business owners. You might feel you can adapt the ERP to your own business niche rather than overpaying for modules you don’t need with other ERPs. What can often blindside you is the resources and technical expertise this customization requires. You might want to look at your budget again to gauge whether you can pay an entire IT department to have this open-source software set up for you.

Accountrak offers flexibility without the technical mess— the countless modules will surely fit your business without having to hire a team of IT experts to get things working the way you want. Accountrak is designed for people who need solutions, not more hurdles.

Customer Support

Customer support with the big ERPs is often a mess, you have to go through several departments of consulting teams to find one that has a solution for you, Oracle Netsuite comes with a bigger surprise — your support might get outsourced to third-party providers who don’t know you or your business needs; include the learning time for these third-party apps and the time it will take to build trust, you will have added more costs in terms of time and wait on top of those hidden costs of NetSuite.

We understand the frustration of constantly playing catch-up. You want to feel in control, confident that your systems are reliable and professional, and above all, you want to avoid letting your clients down.

Business growth should be exciting, not stressful.
