What do you dislike about ERPNext?

The vendor support, most of the vendors has no or very basic knowledge of ERPNext, I had to struggle and guide them even understanding the basic business logic was a problem. Not many developers are equipped with programming language, those who are good, they have no good knowledge of Business proceses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ERPNext is said to be the most agile ERP on planet and I agree to it, I was able to delope this product to meet our exact business requirements.

I like that ERPNext is open source—which helps keep our overhead costs low. Even more, we can add to the existing code base which allows us to make all kinds of customizations to fit our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Upgrading ERPNext when you have customizations can be a pain, especially if the ERPNext foundation has made major release updates. Expect that your custom code will break and will need to be revised to ensure compatibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ERPNext helps our business with HR employee paperwork tracking, full accounting, inventory stock management, lot/batch number trackability and traceability, issue tracking, PO ordering and tracking, COGS, customer order history, and customer account portal (where the customer can log directly into our system and view documents specific to their account(s), such as invoices and delivery notes).

What do you like best about ERPNext?

The is the best open source ERP software. Been a part of the community for quite a long time

Ease of use, a simple interface, the ability to customize, an awesome community, and APIs are all available.

Mobile device support is excellent. The most recent version features a pleasant user interface and adequate functionality.

Documentation is more comprehensive, and it can be reinforced by forums, where individuals are more responsive since they feel like they're part of a community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ERPNext?

Because the ERP world as a whole fails at UX, this isn't an insurmountable problem. ERPNext documentation does also not task or use case-based and can be somewhat technical at times.

The platform is quite inflexible out of the box, and many stated features were just not existent or did not operate as advertised at the time of testing.

However, I am concerned about fewer service suppliers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ERPNext:

This is the best choice for you if you're looking for an ERP solution as a business and have good enough technical knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot of features! But how does it being a negative point. Yes, it has a lot of features that are somehow confusing. Also, these options are not arranged properly in the menu. There should be proper wizard to start with these features are others should be hidden accordingly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
