  • Support doesn’t stop after release. We offer flexible post-launch support options — from a lightweight maintenance team to a full-featured dev squad — so your ERP grows with your business.

Retailers don’t need another generic ERP article. You’re here because you want a solution that actually fits your business, not just high-level explanation. That’s exactly what our ERP development company does.

Since 2014, Clockwise Software has delivered 200+ projects — and around half of them were business systems, including custom ERPs and specialized module integrations. We’ve worked with retailers big and small, helping them automate processes, streamline supply chains, and scale without the usual growing pains.

We sat down with our business analyst and solution architect — experts who’ve spent years building ERP systems for retailers — and asked them to share everything that actually matters. So, no theory, just real insights from real projects.

We’ll walk you through the process — what works, what doesn’t, and how to build a retail ERP that fits your retail business.

Differences between default ERP and ERP for retail

General-purpose ERP solutions sound great — until they don’t fit your business needs anymore. Many retailers start with a standard system, only to realize it wasn’t built for the fast-moving, multi-channel world of retail.

Think about it: You’re juggling fluctuating demand, online and offline sales, dynamic pricing, and real-time inventory updates. A generic ERP might cover the basics, but it won’t keep up with the complexity of retail operations.

Let’s break down where standard solutions fall short and why a retail ERP makes all the difference.

Omnichannel management

Most generic ERP systems are designed for general business functions like accounting, HR, and inventory tracking. Important? Absolutely. But for retailers selling across multiple channels, these systems often create more problems than they solve.

A true omnichannel retail ERP connects everything (your physical stores, e-commerce platforms, and third-party marketplaces) into one seamless system. Standard ERPs usually miss the mark in key areas:

  • Omnichannel inventory management. Keeping stock levels accurate across all locations in real time, so you don’t run into overselling or stockouts.
  • POS and e-commerce integration. Syncing transactions, pricing, and promotions across online and offline stores to avoid mismatches.
  • Advanced customer engagement tools. Unifying customer data from all channels to personalize offers, track loyalty programs, and improve retention.

Without these features, retailers face disconnected operations, inventory mismatches, and lost sales.

Real-time data and tracking

In retail, delays cost money and customer trust. You need to know what’s happening across your business the moment it happens. Standard ERPs rely on periodic reporting, but that’s not fast enough. A retail ERP captures transactions, inventory updates, and customer behavior in real time, giving you:

  • Instant stock updates. Inventory levels adjust automatically with each sale, preventing overselling or stock discrepancies.
  • Supply chain agility. Immediate tracking of shipments, vendor deliveries, and warehouse stock keeps operations running like clockwork.
  • Customer behavior insights. Real-time shopping patterns trigger dynamic pricing, personalized promotions, and enhanced customer experiences.

Without real-time tracking, you’re flying blind, risking stockouts, delays, and lost revenue. A retail ERP gives you live, reliable data so every decision is on point.

Seamless integration with retail systems and payment solutions

Retail runs on a network of interconnected systems and if they don’t talk to each other, things get messy. General ERPs may support some basic integrations, but they often lack the flexibility to connect with the specialized tools retailers rely on every day.

ERP for retail industry is built for deep integration, guaranteeing smooth data flow and operational efficiency across all your systems. Essential integrations include:

  • POS systems. Syncs transactions in real time, ensuring accurate inventory and minimizing errors.
  • E-commerce platforms. Integrates with Shopify, Magento, Amazon, and other marketplaces for unified sales tracking.
  • Payment gateways. Supports multiple payment methods, automates refunds, and simplifies chargebacks.
  • Third-party logistics (3PL). Automates shipping updates, tracks orders in real time, and optimizes warehouse operations.

Without these integrations, you’re stuck with manual work, delays, and disconnected systems.

Built-in retail logic

No two retailers operate the same way. Brick-and-mortar chains, franchise networks, and DTC brands all have unique workflows, pricing models, and supply chain needs. Generic ERPs often need heavy (and costly) customization to fit these differences.

Retail ERP comes with built-in retail logic, so you can support multi-store operations, franchise models, or direct-to-consumer sales without complex coding or delays.

It’s easy to match the system to your business rules — from automated stock reorders and FIFO/FEFO inventory handling to loyalty programs across locations. And with retail-specific permissions, each team only gets the access they need — no more, no less.

Advanced retail features

Retail ERP systems often include advanced features you won’t find (or can’t easily configure) in general-purpose solutions. We’re talking real-time stock allocation, retail-specific performance tracking, dynamic pricing, and AI-powered demand forecasting — the tools that actually move the needle in day-to-day retail.

Retail ERP includes advanced features built specifically for fast-moving, customer-focused retail environments. Here’s what makes the difference:

  • Order and return management. Automates fulfillment, streamlines exchanges, and simplifies returns.
  • Retail-specific performance tracking. Monitors sales per store/channel, inventory turnover, CAC, ROAS, and LTV.
  • Dynamic stock allocation. Adjusts inventory distribution in real time to prevent overstocking or shortages.
  • Demand forecasting. Leverages historical sales data and AI insights to predict trends and optimize purchasing.

With a retail ERP, your operations stay nimble, even when demand shifts overnight.

So how do you build something that specific — without wasting time or budget? Let’s walk through the process.

ERP for retail development: stages, functionality & costs

Developing a retail ERP involves three core stages: discovery, development, and post-release support.

Project discovery

Skipping project discovery could mean paying more later. That’s why we begin with a structured discovery phase — to define every part of your ERP from the ground up: functionality, architecture, design, and integrations. It keeps development focused and aligned, without surprises halfway through the project.

At this stage, our business analyst, project manager, UI/UX designer, and software architect focus on the following aspects.

Understanding your retail workflow

Before we write a single line of code, we get a clear picture of how your retail business works. A business analyst and UI/UX designer map out your current workflows, while the project manager and software architect focus on your technical goals, constraints, and integration needs. To shape the right solution, we ask questions like:

  • Who will use the system? Store managers, warehouse staff, finance teams—each requires different access levels.
  • What are your current processes, and how are you used to working? Understanding your day-to-day operations helps us design a system that fits, not fights, your routine.
  • What integrations are essential? POS systems, e-commerce platforms, payment gateways, logistics providers.
  • What data needs migration? Product catalogs, sales history, inventory records, customer profiles.
  • Are there compliance or security requirements? Consider payment security standards, GDPR (for customer data), and tax regulations.
  • What’s your long-term vision? Scalability ensures your ERP grows with you, not against you.

Once we have these insights, we define the exact features your retail ERP software needs.

Gathering requirements

Clear requirements mean fewer surprises and lower costs. That’s why we turn everything we’ve learned into a structured blueprint built around your needs. It covers:

  • Project vision & scope. Defines what the ERP should achieve, where it will run, and the boundaries of the initial release.
  • BPMN or activity diagrams. Visualize current workflows, desired outcomes, and automation opportunities.
  • User stories with acceptance criteria / use case scenarios. Document how users interact with the system — including edge cases and expected behavior.
  • Security & compliance requirements. We define how your ERP will handle data safely and stay compliant with GDPR or any industry rules that apply.
  • Wireframes. Early screens and flows that let you test the look and feel — and catch anything that feels off before we start development.

For developers, this documentation acts as a technical guide. For you, it ensures clarity, cost control, and alignment with expectations from day one.

Risks & limitations

Retail ERP software deals with high volumes, real-time updates, and tons of integrations — and if you don’t plan for risks early, things break fast. That’s why we tackle potential issues upfront, not after they cause trouble.

We assess compliance needs, plan data migration carefully, and research API documentation for every POS, payment, or logistics tool in your stack. That way, we’re ready for quirks like unique APIs, data formats, and rate limits — and there are no surprises later.

Before development, our software architect runs feasibility tests. If needed, we build a proof of concept (PoC) — a small-scale simulation to pressure-test everything from your workflows to performance quirks, so the final build works as it should.

This prevents mid-project reworks and shifts later. We cover this in more detail in our guide on risks in software development — a must-read if you're planning a large system like ERP.

UI/UX design

An ERP should simplify your daily operations, not complicate them. Once the wireframes are ready, we design a clean, intuitive interface tailored to your workflows.

You get a clickable prototype to explore the flows, spot anything that feels off, and suggest changes early — way better than fixing things mid-build. We walk you through every screen together, making sure it all clicks before development begins.

Tech stack and architecture

We use the same approach across industries — general, retail, real estate ERP, you name it. Modular, scalable, and built to last. Here’s how we structure it:

tech stack

  • System architecture

Instead of building one massive system, we usually go with a service-oriented architecture (SOA) — breaking the ERP into smaller, modular services that are easier to scale.

For example, we might build a separate API for authentication and roles, another for inventory and orders, and one more to handle integrations with POS systems, payments, and logistics tools.

Why not a monolith? Monolithic ERPs might be easier to set up initially, but they’re hard to scale as your retail operations grow. A modular approach ensures faster updates, better performance, and easier third-party integrations.

Still, if a monolith makes more sense for your case, we can do that too — we’ve built both.

  • Scalable infrastructure

Retail ERPs deal with real-time transactions and large data volumes — especially during peak hours. To keep performance steady, we use auto-scaling tools like AWS Elastic Beanstalk and Azure App Services that adjust resources on the fly when traffic surges.

And with Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform and AWS CloudFormation, we can scale your setup fast as your business grows with less manual work and no delays.

  • Security & compliance

Handling payment and customer data means security has to be airtight. We bake it into every layer and follow GDPR and other regulations where needed — so nothing slips through the cracks.

We set up role-based access control (RBAC) so every user sees only what they need and nothing more. And to keep your data safe no matter what, we configure automated backups with AWS Backup or Google Cloud Storage. If anything goes wrong, you’re covered.

  • Performance monitoring

With tools like CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, New Relic, and Sentry, we monitor your ERP in real time — tracking performance, flagging bottlenecks, and resolving issues before they hit your users.

Tech choices matter — but they only work if you’ve got a team that can bring it all together. Choosing a team with this kind of expertise is just as important — if you want to learn more, here’s an article on what to look for when deciding how to choose a software development company.

Development plan

After discovery, we translate everything into a solid plan — clear scope, realistic timeline, and built-in flexibility. Here’s what we deliver at this stage:

  • Risk register. We list out the technical, organizational, and integration risks — plus how we’ll deal with them before they turn into problems.
  • Work breakdown structure (WBS). A detailed breakdown of what we’re building and how long it’ll take — including a realistic estimate and, when needed, best- and worst-case scenarios.
  • Cost estimate. A realistic number based on the actual complexity of your ERP.
  • Project timeline. A clear visual roadmap of what’s happening when, who’s involved, and how it all comes together.
  • Project roadmap. A big-picture plan that shows priorities, key milestones, and how we’ll roll things out in phases that make sense for your business.

Retail ERP development isn’t a sprint. Over 9+ months, priorities can shift — and we’re ready for that. We give you both pessimistic and realistic timelines, and keep communication steady as the project evolves.

We’ll do everything on our side to keep things on track and adjust as needed — but flexibility works both ways. If you are open to change when it’s needed, it can help us avoid roadblocks, make smart decisions about cost optimization in software development, and keep the end result aligned with your goals.

Discovery cost and timelines

Project discovery usually takes 4 to 10 weeks, depending on how complex your retail operations are. For example, features like multi-store inventory tracking, omnichannel sales, or deep integrations take more time to define the right way.

Discovery costs range from $12,000 to $25,000+, based on:

  • Project scope. How many features, integrations, and business processes need mapping.
  • Level of customization. The more tailored the solution, the more in-depth planning is required.
  • Required integrations. POS systems, e-commerce platforms, logistics, and payment gateways all add to complexity.

For a full breakdown of the timeline, costs, and deliverables, check out our whitepaper on project discovery.

Great ERPs aren’t built on assumptions — they’re built on discovery.
With 200+ projects and a transparent delivery process, we stand by our estimates and deliver results that scale. Let’s talk about your ERP goals.

Development stage

This hands-on phase makes up the bulk of the software product development life cycle, transitioning from planning to actual execution. We work in short, focused iterations (2–4 weeks) to stay flexible, test continuously, and keep development efficient.

Here’s how we bring your ERP to life step-by-step.

Step 1: Application bootstrapping

Before we dive into features, we start with a “Zero Sprint” — a short prep phase that lays the groundwork. We set up your infrastructure, configure the backend and frontend, and get the project structure in place. It’s how we make sure the build starts clean and runs smooth.

Skip this step, and you risk slowdowns, rework, and messy technical debt later on.

Step 2: Frontend development

Next, we bring the designs to life — building a smooth, user-friendly interface that fits your retail operations. This stage includes:

  • Component development. Building reusable UI components for dashboards, reports, inventory views, and transaction screens.
  • API integration. Connecting the frontend with the backend to sync real-time sales, stock levels, and order statuses.
  • State management. Implementing Redux, Vuex, or Context API to efficiently handle data flow and user interactions.
  • Performance optimization. Using caching strategies and efficient rendering to keep load times fast, even with high transaction volumes.
  • Responsiveness & accessibility. Ensuring a smooth experience across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, while meeting accessibility standards.

A solid frontend makes the system easy to use for everyone — from store managers to warehouse teams.

Step 3: Backend development

This is where we build the engine of your ERP. Here’s what we cover:

  • Database design. Structuring data storage for sales transactions, inventory, customer records, and supplier information.
  • API development. Creating secure, high-performance endpoints for smooth communication between frontend and backend.
  • Authentication & authorization. Implementing role-based access control (RBAC) to ensure secure logins and protect sensitive data.
  • Business logic implementation. Building the core functionalities that handle order processing, stock updates, financial tracking, and more.

A strong backend keeps things moving without dragging down performance as you scale.

Step 4: Testing

We test as we build (not just at the end) so issues get caught early and the system works the way your team expects.

That starts with unit tests to catch issues early in individual components, both frontend and backend. Then we run integration tests to make sure everything plays nicely together — from your POS system to real-time inventory updates.

We also simulate real-world scenarios with end-to-end tests, like placing an order or generating a financial report. And every time we add something new, we run regression tests to make sure nothing breaks. On top of that, our QA team runs hands-on exploratory testing to spot any usability hiccups and make sure the system actually feels right for day-to-day retail operations.

Beyond testing: stabilization & bug fixing

Even with all features in place, we don’t rush to deploy. First comes stabilization — fine-tuning performance, fixing any leftover issues, and re-testing key workflows to make sure everything holds up in everyday workflows.

Step 5: User acceptance testing (UAT)

Before launch, ERP software for retail industry needs to prove itself in real-world conditions — that’s where user acceptance testing (UAT) comes in.

Your store managers, finance teams, warehouse staff, or any other end users you want to involve run the system through their actual workflows to make sure everything works as expected — from orders and inventory to reporting and integrations. If anything feels off, we catch it early and fine-tune before go-live.

Step 6: Deployment

A smooth deployment takes more than a click — it’s a coordinated effort to ensure a stable and seamless transition.

Before launch, we run final checks in the production environment to make sure everything’s stable. In many cases, we recommend a gradual rollout — starting with a few stores — to minimize disruption and catch any edge cases early. If anything unexpected comes up, we fix it fast to keep the launch smooth and stress-free.

Once everything checks out, your retail ERP goes live — ready to handle day-to-day retail operations without a hitch.

At this point, you have a fully developed, tested, and deployed ERP, ready to handle high-volume retail, real-time data, and seamless integrations across your entire operation.

Functionality in ERP for retail

The beauty of custom ERP? You’re not limited to a preset feature list. You can build exactly what your business needs — and nothing it doesn’t. Just like ERP for manufacturing includes production tracking, BOMs, and shop floor control, retail ERP focuses on real-time inventory, smooth order flows, and channel-wide pricing.

To give you a sense of what functionality you can include in your system, here's a breakdown of the key retail ERP features that, based on our experience,make an ERP system really effective for retail operations.

Order & fulfillment management

In retail, orders come fast — and if your system can’t keep up, things fall apart. A strong order management module keeps everything moving, from the moment a customer buys to the moment the package lands (and even if it comes back). Here’s what that looks like:

  • Order routing & automation. Sends orders to the best fulfillment center, warehouse, or store based on availability and location.
  • Picking, packing & shipping. Uses barcode scanning & automated picking lists to speed up warehouse operations.
  • Omnichannel fulfillment. Syncs e-commerce, POS, and marketplaces to ensure smooth online & in-store sales.
  • Reverse logistics. Automates returns, refunds, and restocking, reducing manual work.

Of course, this module will be fully customized to your needs. Take Vialoop, a facility management aggregator we worked with — most of their orders came in by email. So we built an email parser that spots orders emails and imports them right into their ERP, saving hours of manual work and speeding up response times.

Customer relationship management (CRM) & loyalty programs

Retail runs on relationships. A retail ERP with built-in CRM tools helps you unify customer data, personalize marketing, and keep shoppers coming back. Must-have features include:

  • Customer data unification. Combines purchase history, preferences, and interactions across all sales channels.
  • Personalized marketing & segmentation. Enables targeted campaigns based on shopping behavior.
  • Loyalty program management. Supports multi-tier rewards, discounts, and automated promotions to keep customers coming back.
  • Automated recommendations. Uses purchase patterns to suggest products and upsell opportunities.

Already using a CRM? No problem, we can integrate with numerous platforms, including Salesforce, HubSpot, and Zoho.

For example, in the Segment AI project, we built a real-time sync with Salesforce, enabling seamless lead segmentation and automated marketing campaigns helping businesses optimize customer outreach without duplicate data entry.

Point of Sale (POS) & omnichannel sales

POS integration lets your retail ERP system handle transactions in real time — whether it’s in-store, online, at self-checkout, or on mobile. What makes it work?

  • Real-time transaction processing. Instantly syncs purchases, returns, and refunds across all channels.
  • Payment data sync. The ERP pulls in processed payment details from your POS without manual entry or mismatches.
  • Omnichannel synchronization. Keeps pricing, discounts, and promotions consistent everywhere.
  • Automated price adjustments & dynamic pricing. Makes dynamic pricing easier — by giving managers the tools to update prices based on demand, stock levels, or loyalty programs, with built-in control and approval flows.

With everything connected, you get faster transactions, fewer errors, and a smoother customer experience.

Inventory management

Coordinating inventory across locations takes precision. A retail ERP helps you track stock in real time, reduce errors, and streamline replenishment. Core features include:

  • Real-time stock visibility. Tracks inventory across multiple locations to prevent stock discrepancies.
  • Automated stock replenishment. Uses demand forecasting to recommend optimal stock levels.
  • FEFO (First-Expiring-First-Out) tracking. Prioritizes older stock to minimize waste—critical for perishables.
  • Barcode/RFID scanning. Speeds up inventory counting, stock transfers, and order fulfillment.
  • Multi-location stock transfers. Ensures smooth movement of stock between warehouses and retail locations.

With our assistance, UDK WebOffice synchronized order placement with warehouse availability, so customers only see available items, eliminating overselling.

Or another example: in our work with Strapping, we implemented FIFO (First In, First Out) inventory rotation to prevent overstocking. In retail ERP it can be especially important for products with shelf life or seasonal demand.

We use similar logic in ERP for food and beverage, where shelf life, batch tracking, and FEFO stock rotation are critical to keeping operations tight and waste low.

Warehouse management system (WMS)

A retail ERP with WMS keeps warehouses operating fast and organized — even when order volume spikes. Here’s what it should handle:

  • Optimized warehouse workflows. Automates receiving, putaway, picking, packing, and shipping.
  • Optimized picking routes. Helps warehouse staff move through storage zones faster to collect items for each order.
  • Automated storage assignments. Allocates space dynamically based on item size, demand, and category.
  • Warehouse layout optimization. Maximizes storage capacity and improves accessibility for high-demand products.

With the right WMS in place, your warehouse becomes a strategic part of the operation — not just a storage space.

Logistics & procurement management

Procurement and fulfillment need to move as fast as your sales. With logistics and supplier management built into your retail ERP system, you gain control over sourcing, shipping, and costs. Features to expect:

  • Supplier coordination & multi-supplier tracking. Monitors vendor relationships, pricing, and performance to select the best suppliers.
  • Purchase order automation. Generates POs based on demand forecasts, reducing manual effort and procurement delays.
  • Logistics management & shipment tracking. Monitors deliveries in real time, optimizing routing for on-time arrivals.

The logistics optimization module we developed as part of the UDK WebOffice ERP is a prime example of real-world implementation. With its help our client got:

  • Automatic contractor selection. The ERP automatically picks the most cost-effective delivery provider.
  • Route optimization with Google Maps. Delivery routes were optimized, cutting unnecessary mileage and improving efficiency.
  • Measurable results:
    • $70,000+ saved annually on delivery costs.
    • 2x increase in daily truck load capacity (from 45 to 92 trucks per day).

A smartly integrated logistics and procurement system reduces costs, improves delivery efficiency, and enhances supply chain transparency keeping retail operations profitable and responsive to demand.

Financial management

Money moves fast in retail — and tracking it across stores, warehouses, and online sales can get messy. A retail ERP with built-in financial tools keeps everything in check: from real-time cash flow visibility to automated invoicing and audit-ready reports. Here's what it handles:

  • Accounts payable & receivable. Tracks payments, invoices, and supplier transactions to maintain cash flow.
  • Cash flow management. Provides real-time visibility into income, expenses, and projections.
  • Tax compliance & automated invoicing. Ensures accurate tax calculations and timely invoice generation.
  • Multi-location financial tracking. Gives centralized oversight of revenues, expenses, and profitability across stores and franchises.
  • Financial reporting & analytics. Generates profit-and-loss statements, balance sheets, and tax reports for better decision-making.

Everything’s connected, so you can track cash, stay compliant, and make decisions with confidence.

Reporting, analytics & business intelligence (BI)

Retailers generate tons of data, but raw numbers don’t help unless they’re turned into insights. A retail ERP system with built-in analytics & BI tools helps you track performance, optimize pricing, and prevent fraud with real-time reporting and interactive dashboards. Key capabilities involve:

  • Retail-specific KPI tracking. Monitors sales per store/channel, inventory turnover, CAC, ROAS, and LTV.
  • Interactive dashboards & drill-down reports. For analyzing sales trends, pricing strategies, and stock movement across locations.
  • Fraud prevention & anomaly detection. Identifies irregular transactions, refund abuse, and suspicious inventory movements.
  • Multi-location performance comparison. Benchmarks performance between stores, franchises, or sales channels.

When you know what’s working (and what’s not), it’s easier to act fast and stay ahead.

Development cost and timeline

Custom ERP software development cost varies based on scope, required features, and integrations. A full-scale ERP system typically starts at $350,000–$500,000+ and takes 9–12+ months to build.

Here is a retail ERP software time and cost estimate example:

erp system estimate examples

Need to get your retail ERP up and running sooner? Or want to test the system before full-scale development? An ERP MVP (minimum viable product) might be the perfect solution. An MVP includes essential features plus a few critical modules and costs $150,000–$200,000, typically taking around 6 months to build.

By starting with an MVP, you can reduce risk, validate key processes, and get a working system faster without waiting for full-scale development.

No one enjoys rebuilding features they already paid for.
We help you avoid rework, delays, and missed integrations with proven planning and delivery. Ready to get it right from day one?

Post-release support & continuous improvement

Once your retail ERP system goes live, it needs to keep up with everything that comes next — growth, changes, and new challenges. That’s why we stick around after launch (if you want us to) — to keep everything running without a hitch.

As new needs emerge, we can help you enhance existing features, add new modules, or integrate with additional third-party tools. And when traffic picks up or operations expand, we are ready to help you adjust the infrastructure to scale without slowing you down.

For example, after deploying a waste transportation platform in Denver, we enhanced the design based on user feedback and optimized map load times to improve usability.

Cost of post-release support & further development

The cost of ongoing ERP support depends on the software development team structure needed for maintenance and improvements. Here is a rough estimate based on team composition:

Team composition Monthly budget
  • Project manager*
  • Business analyst*
  • UI/UX designer*
  • Frontend developer
  • Backend developer
  • QA engineer
$12,000
  • Project manager*
  • Business analyst*
  • UI/UX designer*
  • 2 frontend developers
  • 2 backend developers
  • QA engineer
$48,000
* On-demand involvement

Your setup depends on what you need and where you’re headed — we’ll help you find the right balance: no wasted budget, no missing talent.

Improving your existing retail ERP software

If your ERP is lagging, lacking features, or stuck on outdated tech — it’s holding your business back. Whether you need software development consulting, tune-up, fresh integrations, or a full rebuild, we’ll dig in, spot the issues, and come up with a clear plan to fix what’s slowing you down.

Even if your retail ERP was built by another vendor or hasn’t been updated in years, we’ll help you optimize, expand, and modernize it without disrupting your business. That’s how we do it:

  • Optimizing system performance. Slow transactions, delayed inventory syncs, clunky data handling — if that sounds familiar, we’ll dig into the backend and database, clean things up, and get your ERP running fast and smooth.
  • Expanding functionality & integrations. Need to hook into a new POS, marketplace, or supplier tool? We’ll look at how your system works, plan the integration properly, and make sure everything connects the way it should.
  • Modernizing the tech stack. Running on old frameworks? We can modernize your ERP with the latest tech or cloud infrastructure, so it’s ready to scale when you are.

Case in point here is UDK ERP modernization. UDK first built an ERP system with us a long time ago. Nine years later, they needed an upgrade to match their evolving business needs. We're now rebuilding the ERP using modern frameworks and implementing multi-tenancy architecture to make it more scalable and adaptable as the business grows.
