Nadia Ramjee

Financial Controller

8 March 2025

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

Frustrating experience for our 420 person team

Implementation ran long, over budget and into acrimony. Exit planning started the day we understood the contract.

Pros

Multi book statutory and management views

Cons

Consultant dependency never tapers

Financial Director · Xaba Packaging Works

30 November 2024

Manufacturing · 11–50 employees Zimbabwe Used for 2+ years

Great depth, renewal negotiations required

After 2 years the value is real and so is the fatigue. Every meaningful change involves partner hours on the invoice. Dashboards per role mean the warehouse sees stock and the CFO sees cash.

Cons

Partner hours on every change

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

Decent fit for a 300 person company

It solved our hard problems and invoiced accordingly. Licensing tiers and module maths need a spreadsheet of their own. Saved searches are the killer feature, live answers to any question the data can hold.

Pros

Revenue recognition auditors accept

Cons

Localisation gaps need workarounds

Technology · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Disappointed after 8 years

The dependency on consultants never tapered as promised. A simple field change came back quoted in consulting days.

Cons

Implementation overruns and acrimony

Financial Director · Randburg Systems SA

1 January 2025

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

Our Upington office gave up on it

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.

Cons

Consultant dependency never tapers

It solved our hard problems and invoiced accordingly. Renewal negotiations reward preparation and punish loyalty.

Pros

Consolidation across entities and currencies; multi book statutory and management views

Cons

Dated interface between refreshes

Precious Mabaso

Group Accountant

29 September 2025

Healthcare · 500+ employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Good but not perfect for our Worcester team

It solved our hard problems and invoiced accordingly. Training new finance staff takes real weeks. The platform absorbed our transaction growth without flinching.

Pros

Audit trail beyond reproach; suiteScript automation depth

Cons

Partner hours on every change

Logistics · 500+ employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Mixed feelings after 5 years

The product is excellent and the commercial experience is a sport. Licensing tiers and module maths need a spreadsheet of their own. Approval workflows enforce the delegation of authority automatically.

Cons

Weeks to train new staff

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

Expected better, Stellenbosch customer

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

Khanyisile Jacobs

Financial Controller

12 September 2025

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

Happy customer in Durban

The multi book accounting carries our statutory and management views in parallel. Currency revaluations run on schedule without a spreadsheet in sight. Expensive and worth it, in that order.

Pros

Saved searches answer anything live; revenue recognition auditors accept

17 July 2024

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

Solid choice for our Upington business

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. For a group with real consolidation pain, it is the shortlist of one.

Pros

Revenue recognition auditors accept

Cons

Costs that demand negotiation skill

Xolani Ferreira

Financial Manager · Impala Medical Supplies

16 November 2025

Healthcare · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

No complaints after 2 years

After 2 years the system has absorbed two acquisitions without a migration. Approval workflows enforce the delegation of authority automatically. For a group with real consolidation pain, it is the shortlist of one.

Pros

Revenue recognition auditors accept; saved searches answer anything live

Cons

Localisation gaps need workarounds

Finance Manager · Plessis Consulting SA

8 June 2025

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

Powerful and priced like a statement

It solved our hard problems and invoiced accordingly. Some localisation gaps need partner built workarounds. Dashboards per role mean the warehouse sees stock and the CFO sees cash.

Pros

Cons

Licensing maths needs its own model

CFO · Fynbos Supplies Studio

18 February 2026

Wholesale South Africa Used for 6–12 months

A deep and capable suite that never lets you forget its price. Every meaningful change involves partner hours on the invoice. Performance dips at close when everyone leans on the same reports.

24 November 2024

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

The renewal quote was a hostage note

The renewal arrived with a number that restarted our ERP evaluation. Our go live slipped a quarter and the remediation bill exceeded the original quote.

Cons

Implementation overruns and acrimony
