When do you look at Compiere


The Compiere system is certainly suitable in the following organizational circumstances:

Circumstance

Compiere advantage

Outgrowing existing system

The business is outgrowing its existing systems. Generally, the business was doing fine on a small accounting package, but now requires additional functionality. It may also require a more scalable enterprise database, or the number of users and the complexity of the business is expanding.

Compiere's technology stack offers a growing company the enterprise scalability platform required. Functionality and transactions volumes can be scaled based on specific user needs.

Existing system is old technology

The existing system is so old that support cannot be easily obtained and the technology is just hanging by a thread. This is usually the case with long-standing or older generation management. For example, a family business that has been in existence for many years and the legacy system has just always worked, but finally a decision has to be made as to a new system.

Compiere offers the current Java and web technology platform , which is based on open architecture and standards, throughout its offering.

Dynamic system requirement

More progressive and dynamic management where the underlying technology is as important to the business as the business itself.

Due to its open source nature, Compiere offers a flexible and transparent technology platform.

Value proposition

Large businesses that are evaluating ERP vendor systems and are analyzing the costs versus return.

Compiere provides a competitive licensing model up to large-scale Enterprise levels.
