AI score breakdown, 6 dimensions
SMB implementability 25%58
US-based with direct implementation support, but typically $75–200K first-year cost. On-prem or cloud, not self-guided. Direct sales team support is a plus.
Purpose fit 20%83
Purpose-built single-codebase ERP for discrete and job-shop manufacturers, deep shop-floor control, scheduling, and quote-to-cash built specifically for make-to-order shops. Real manufacturing depth across its verticals, not a horizontal platform.
Tech modernity 20%48
On-prem heritage with a cloud option. Legacy UI visible in several modules. Not API-first or cloud-native in design.
Documentation quality 15%60
Some public documentation. Knowledge base available to customers. Limited pre-sales technical transparency.
Real user sentiment 10%80
Exceptionally loyal customer base, one of the highest retention rates in job shop ERP. Long-term users are strong public advocates.
TCO transparency 10%48
No published pricing, but direct sales team provides quotes. Implementation cost range ($75–200K) is community-known even if not formally published.
