APplus: Simply smarter ERP	About Meeting the complex software needs of project-oriented manufacturers with easy-to-use solutions is all we do. And because we spend time everyday with companies like yours, no vendor knows your business better. Which is why, even when you have mixed-mode requirements that call for ETO, MTO, MTS, ATO and BTO manufacturing, our Finesse ERP software has you covered like no one else. Your business today doesn't look like it did ten years ago. And who knows what it'll look like in another ten? Which is exactly the point. You don't know. But you still can't afford to buy a system today that won't work tomorrow. How do we deal with that? We plan ahead. Take Y2K. We never had to scramble to fix our system because we complied from the start. That's pretty much our approach. We chose open systems to make Finesse easy, save you money and keep you from getting trapped with a bunch of proprietary systems you have to tweak just to communicate.

Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros We have been using APplus for quite some time now and are overall very satisfied with the ERP system. What stands out most is its flexibility, processes can be customized easily without deep programming knowledge. Thanks to the modular structure, we were able to replace several isolated solutions and now work seamlessly across all departments, from purchasing and production to delivery and invoicing. The browser-based interface is modern, clear, and intuitive. New employees get up to speed quickly, and daily work feels much smoother compared to other ERP systems we’ve used before. Working via mobile devices also works flawlessly. Another strong point is the reporting and analytics functionality. With the dashboards and quick views, we always have a transparent overview of our orders and workflows. Cons During the initial implementation it takes some time until all functions and modules can be used to their full potential. Once the system is set up and users are familiar with it, the efficiency gains quickly become noticeable.
