Lerato Meyer

Highveld Distributors

20 April 2025

Wholesale · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Happy customer in Johannesburg

Five entities, three currencies, one consolidation button. That sentence justified the project. The audit trail satisfies the most suspicious reviewer we have met.

Pros

Saved searches answer anything live; consolidation across entities and currencies

Cons

Licensing maths needs its own model

Technology · 201–500 employees South Africa Used for 6–12 months

Good but not perfect for our Upington team

A deep and capable suite that never lets you forget its price. The interface gets refreshed in patches and shows its age between them. Intercompany eliminations post themselves at close.

Cons

Localisation gaps need workarounds

Managing Director · East London Timber Supplies

15 March 2026

South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Solid choice for our Ballito business

Five entities, three currencies, one consolidation button. That sentence justified the project. Dashboards per role mean the warehouse sees stock and the CFO sees cash. The platform absorbed our transaction growth without flinching. The system our scale demanded and finally got.

Pros

Saved searches answer anything live; revenue recognition auditors accept

Cons

Weeks to train new staff

Group Financial Manager

16 November 2025

Healthcare · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Mostly happy in Midrand, a few gripes

A deep and capable suite that never lets you forget its price. The interface gets refreshed in patches and shows its age between them.

Sipho Cele

Garden Route Trading

2 March 2025

Retail · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Not what we hoped for our Roodepoort business

The renewal arrived with a number that restarted our ERP evaluation. A simple field change came back quoted in consulting days. Exit planning started the day we understood the contract.

Pros

Audit trail beyond reproach

Cons

Implementation overruns and acrimony

Devan Hadebe

Group Accountant · Paarl Freight Group

23 October 2024

South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Serving our Pietermaritzburg operation well

The multi book accounting carries our statutory and management views in parallel. Dashboards per role mean the warehouse sees stock and the CFO sees cash. Approval workflows enforce the delegation of authority automatically.

Pros

Audit trail beyond reproach; absorbs acquisitions without migrations

Cons

Localisation gaps need workarounds

Anele September

Finance Manager · Winelands Couriers SA

6 July 2025

Logistics · 201–500 employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Grew through two acquisitions without changing systems

A deep and capable suite that never lets you forget its price. Licensing tiers and module maths need a spreadsheet of their own.

Pros

Absorbs acquisitions without migrations

Cons

Costs that demand negotiation skill

Schalk Sithole

Protea Trading Group

7 July 2026

Retail · 500+ employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Doing okay for our 600 person setup

Great at scale, heavy at our edge of it. Licensing tiers and module maths need a spreadsheet of their own. Role based access mapped our governance requirements exactly.

Cons

Weeks to train new staff

Financial Director

17 April 2025

Manufacturing · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Expected better, Bloemfontein customer

The renewal arrived with a number that restarted our ERP evaluation. Exit planning started the day we understood the contract. The renewal uplift assumed budget we simply did not have.

Cons

Renewal uplifts that restart evaluations

29 January 2025

Healthcare · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Mostly happy in Paarl, a few gripes

Great at scale, heavy at our edge of it. Saved searches are the killer feature, live answers to any question the data can hold.

Leandra Kruger

IT Manager

16 October 2025

Manufacturing · 201–500 employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Happy customer in Richards Bay

The auditors connect, pull what they need and leave us alone. Dashboards per role mean the warehouse sees stock and the CFO sees cash.

Pros

Absorbs acquisitions without migrations

Managing Director

5 May 2026

Wholesale · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Mostly happy in Umhlanga, a few gripes

A deep and capable suite that never lets you forget its price. Some localisation gaps need partner built workarounds. Training new finance staff takes real weeks.

Pros

Cons

Dated interface between refreshes

Palesa Du Toit

Financial Director · Stellenbosch Steel Supplies

6 August 2025

Manufacturing · 201–500 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Too heavy for what we turned out to need

We bought for a scale we never reached and paid for it monthly. Our go live slipped a quarter and the remediation bill exceeded the original quote. A simple field change came back quoted in consulting days.

Cons

Consultant dependency never tapers

Operations Director

17 July 2025

Healthcare · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Good but not perfect for our George team

It solved our hard problems and invoiced accordingly. Training new finance staff takes real weeks. SuiteScript let our partner automate the weird bits of our business.

Cons

Dated interface between refreshes

Bheki Vermeulen

Group Financial Manager · Vermeulen Medical

7 November 2024

Healthcare · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for 6–12 months

Our 55 user group runs on one truth

We run 55 users across the group and the roles keep everyone in their lane. Currency revaluations run on schedule without a spreadsheet in sight. Role based access mapped our governance requirements exactly. The system our scale demanded and finally got.

Pros

Revenue recognition auditors accept; consolidation across entities and currencies

Lerato Sebola

Financial Manager

25 January 2026

Technology · 51–200 employees Zambia Used for 6–12 months

Solid choice for our Pietermaritzburg business

Investor reporting went from a week of spreadsheets to saved searches. For a group with real consolidation pain, it is the shortlist of one.

Pros

Intercompany eliminations automated
