Help people to use our tools

We believe our tools like ERPNext can help organizations reduce waste and complexity. Frappe + ERPNext has the potential to be a “full stack” replacement for not only ERP (SAP/Oracle) but also the entire enterprise stack (Java/.NET). With this scope, we should help organizations by providing products and services to help them manage their technology platforms.

Why ERPNext over SAP B1 / Oracle

100% FOSS

Customizable

Future-ready

Challenges

  • Lead management and the sales process, up to proforma invoice generation, were being handled in Odoo, while other departments worked on different platforms
  • Production planning and daily production data were maintained in Google Spreadsheets, which made tracking, collaboration, and real-time visibility difficult
  • Quality checks and QC records were managed in Excel files, making it hard to maintain proper traceability and support audit requirements
  • Financial accounting was handled separately in Tally, creating a gap between operations and finance.

Since data was spread across multiple tools, there was no single system to manage budgeting, costing, and overall business visibility effectively.

Benefits

  • All major functions were brought into one platform, reducing dependency on disconnected tools and manual coordination.
  • Planning became more structured, with better visibility into production status, material flow, and daily updates.
  • QC records became digitally traceable, standardised, and easier to retrieve during audits.
  • Accounts and business operations were connected, enabling better tracking of transaction flow, stock value, and business performance.
  • Management gained better control over costing, expense tracking, and operational budgeting through centralised data.
  • Duplicate entries and spreadsheet errors were reduced significantly due to controlled workflows and shared master data.

Impact

Successful on-time ERPNext go-live

Increased sales order to cash

Increased inventory turnover

  • Reduced manual reporting effort by 50% to 70%
  • Cut audit preparation time by around 60%
  • Reduced spreadsheet dependency by more than 70%
  • Faster decision-making with near real-time business data
  • Improved costing and budget control accuracy
Earlier, our business processes were scattered across Odoo, Google Sheets, Excel, and Tally, which created gaps in visibility, coordination, costing, and audit readiness. With ERPNext, we now have a centralized system that has streamlined operations, reduced dependency on manual files, improved reporting accuracy, enhanced team collaboration, and given management better control over planning, costing, quality, and overall business performance Midocean played a key role in helping us digitize and centralize our core business operations through ERPNext
