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

There was no all-encompassing solution which could manage all processes and workflows of Walnut School. There were multiple SaaS and other modules which had to be connected to each other bringing in a lot of overhead. The existing ERP system was custom built and was beginning to break apart. DevOps was becoming an increasing headache.

Benefits

Frappe brought in a whiff of fresh air with its low code / no code framework. ERPNext with its capabilities brought in more power. Customization could be quick. Enhanced configurability meant the users of the system could create and maintain the system largely by themselves without great developer support.

Impact

Successful on-time ERPNext go-live

Increased sales order to cash

Increased inventory turnover
