Best ERP software in India: the top 10 things to look for
Lists of the "top 10 ERP software in India" change every year. What doesn't change is what a business actually needs from one. These are the ten things the best ERP software for Indian businesses does, whether you run a shop, a trading firm, a restaurant or a small factory.
Use it as a checklist when you compare. For each point, here is how Bundle ERP does it.
1. GST billing and returns built in
- CGST + SGST or IGST from the place of supply, HSN codes, round-off
- GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and HSN summary straight from your invoices and bills
- Credit notes, exports, SEZ and reverse charge
2. Inventory that always matches the books
- Every sale, receipt, return and count moves stock and posts its value
- Warehouses, batches with expiry, average or FIFO cost
- Stock counts in one go, and inventory valuation on any date
3. Fast billing at the counter
- POS with barcode scanning, split payments, UPI and cash
- Till sessions with a cash count and day-end report
- Returns and refunds at the till
4. Accounting that fills itself
- Double-entry books posted by every document
- Bank reconciliation from your bank's CSV
- Profit & loss and balance sheet, also in the two-sided layout Indian accountants use
5. Purchase with checks
- Quotation requests, orders and approval limits
- Ordered, received and billed matched line by line
- Landed costs: freight and duty added to what goods cost
6. Reports you can take anywhere
- 30+ reports with filters and drill-down to the entry
- Export to Excel, PDF and CSV
- Ageing, ledgers, statements, stock and sales analysis
7. Rights for every person
- Roles per module and action
- Staff who see only their own documents or warehouse
- Cost prices hidden from those who shouldn't see them
8. A price that doesn't grow per user
Many ERPs charge for every login. Bundle ERP charges per plugin for the whole company, with unlimited users, so the team can grow without the bill growing.
9. Works on the phone and the desktop
An Android app and a full desktop version in the browser, on the same company. Search everything, and every change has a history.
10. Quick to set up and easy to move to
- A setup guide that walks through company, taxes, banks, products and users
- Import products, customers and suppliers from a spreadsheet
- Opening balances from your old books: accounts, unpaid invoices and stock
See everything in Bundle ERP, the prices, or the other guides.
