Khanyisile Johnson

Operations Manager

16 June 2026

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

Good decision for a 35 person company

The Enterprise subscription includes support and updates, no surprise invoices. Reports drill from summary to source document cleanly. The point of sale option feeds the same database as everything else.

Pros

Landed costs on imports

26 March 2026

South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Our Polokwane office gave up on it

We wanted the app store ecosystem the big names carry. The remote setup needed IT help our team lacked. We moved for ecosystem, not for features, and paid more for less depth.

Cons

Integrations needed custom work

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

10 years in and still happy

Our 14 user operation in East London runs sales, stores and books in it daily. The point of sale option feeds the same database as everything else. The price per user embarrasses the equivalent tier at the big names.

Cons

Thin mobile story

Agriculture · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Let us down when it counted

Support closed at five and our crisis started at six. Finding a consultant in a smaller town took real searching.

Cons

Support hours miss late crises. Accountants unfamiliar with it

Expected better, Centurion customer

We wanted the app store ecosystem the big names carry. Integrations we assumed existed needed custom work. The remote setup needed IT help our team lacked.

20 September 2025

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

Not what we hoped for our Vanderbijlpark business

The desktop roots fought our remote first ambitions. We moved for ecosystem, not for features, and paid more for less depth.

Cons

Integrations needed custom work

Bookkeeper · Springs Trading

13 July 2025

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

Happy customer in eMalahleni

Our feature request made it into a release within the year, try that with the giants. The point of sale option feeds the same database as everything else. Our warehouse and our ledger finally tell one story.

Pros

Landed costs on imports; warehouse depth at accounting prices

Operations Manager · Protea Attorneys Studio

27 April 2025

South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Happy customer in George

After 2 years the system has scaled through our growth without a migration. Year end runs without the consultant visit our old package required.

Pros

Subscription includes support

Johan Smith

Director · Impala Timber

6 April 2025

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

Mostly happy in Vereeniging, a few gripes

Good software with a smaller ecosystem around it. The mobile story is thin, this is desk software. Data conversions from Pastel come across with history intact.

Pros

Bills of materials for light assembly; serial and lot tracking included

Cons

Smaller consultant ecosystem

Andre Chetty

Managing Director · Zambezi Farming

31 March 2025

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

No complaints after 3 years

Procurement controls stopped the buying chaos our old system permitted. Updates arrive steadily and break nothing we use.

Pros

Johannesburg support that answers

Cons

Report customisation takes patience

18 March 2025

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

Doing okay for our 180 person setup

After 2 years the value is proven and the quirks familiar. Remote access means the hosted option or remote desktop.

Warehouse Manager

4 January 2025

Food & Beverage · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Working well for our 95 person team

Serial number tracking on our electronics stock paid for itself in the first warranty dispute. The point of sale option feeds the same database as everything else.

Cons

Brand recognition lags the product

15 November 2024

Logistics · 1–10 employees Zimbabwe Used for 6–12 months

Doing okay for our 4 person setup

We rate it highly and explain it often. The interface is functional Windows fare, no more. Some modules feel deeper than the documentation that describes them.

Cons

Brand recognition lags the product

30 June 2026

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

No complaints after 7 years

We moved off Pastel when stock got serious and Palladium gave us warehouse depth at half the quoted alternatives. The point of sale option feeds the same database as everything else. Our warehouse and our ledger finally tell one story.

Pros

Warehouse depth at accounting prices
