Best Bang per Buck for Small Manufacturers
Pros:
Our system-agnostic manufacturing consulting practice helps manufacturers of all sizes select, implement, and operate ERP systems. MRPeasy continues to provide the highest bang per buck for small manufacturers. The system has evolved to provide a comprehensive and integrated solution that covers purchasing, inventory, manufacturing, sales, and accounting. Features that stand out are: -- easy to use; user-friendly -- actual costing (rather than standard costing) -- material lot traceability is standard out-of-the-box -- shop floor interface for labor reporting is clean and simple -- material requirements are easily converted to POs or MOs -- customer support via the in-system ticketing system is good
Cons:
I wish it was able to recursively auto-create MOs for subassemblies at lower BOM levels

MRPeasy for manufacturing 3D printer
Comments: Overall it is a very good package especially with the BOM. Also what I like is the continuous updating. Also in case of support the response is relatively quick.
Pros:
Back then, the most important feature was the multilayer BOM. Most competitors were only able to go 1 level deep. Or otherwise the costs would go up significantly. Also for us MRP easy became essential for stock management, purchasing, supplier management. The interface is also very intuitive compared to other softwares
Cons:
During procurement, you have to send a mail, this process can be improved. It opens directly to your mail account, but only a link to the PDF document. I want to attach the PDF. It takes the general contact information, instead of the responsible person of the company. Next to this it messes up the layout of the mail message.
Alternatives Considered: Odoo
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: The overall look and feel and during testing, it was the most complete package for our needs.

MRPeasy Review
Comments: Overall, my experience with MRPeasy was positive. It provided a solid foundation for managing manufacturing processes and streamlining operations. The system's ability to track inventory, plan production, and generate reports was highly valuable. The customer support was responsive and helpful whenever I encountered any issues or had questions. While there were some areas that could be further improved, MRPeasy served as a reliable solution for enhancing efficiency and productivity in manufacturing operations.
Pros:
One of the things I liked most about MRPeasy was its comprehensive and user-friendly interface. It provided a complete solution for managing manufacturing processes, including inventory management, production planning, and scheduling. The system's intuitive layout and ease of use made it simple to navigate and access the necessary information. Additionally, the real-time visibility into production and inventory levels was highly beneficial for effective decision-making.
Cons:
While MRPeasy offered a range of useful features, one aspect I liked least was the limited flexibility in customization. Some specific business requirements or industry-specific needs couldn't be easily accommodated within the system. It would have been beneficial to have more options for tailoring certain aspects to align with the unique needs of the organization. Additionally, the integration capabilities with other software or systems could be improved.

We call it Mr. Peasy, and it makes my life much easier.
Comments: Overall it has done everything we need it to do, and it’s easier to use than 3 other systems we tested, while still being a very capable platform.
Pros:
We only use a small fraction of its features. I like that we can use it with the very simple workflow we have now, and activate or start using more features as we grow.
Cons:
Write offs - you can only write off one item type at a time using the normal web interface. We have some parts that get scrapped during production, and when we write them off it would be useful to enter them as a list rather than one by one. You can upload a CSV to do this but it’s not as user friendly.

Multi-level OEM Production and Procurement Planning
Comments: Excellent. The product team continues to add functionality which has been helpful to us. We are growing along with the application.
Pros:
The system pegs all inventory which allows for detailed forward and backward production planning.
Cons:
We would like to have it plan production orders instead of having to manually drill down into our multi-level bill of materials.
Alternatives Considered: Aptean Industrial Manufacturing ERP Made2Manage Edition
Reasons for Choosing MRPeasy: The integration of MISys to Sage 50 was very burdensome. Also MISys is a traditional MRP system. It does not peg inventory lots for supply and demand.
Switched From: MISys Manufacturing
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: Ease of use and excellent functionality.

Excellent MRP system for this small manufacturer
Comments: Excellent product with excellent customer support. From the start, they were very helpful as we implemented and transitioned and continue to give us top notch support - even though we are a tiny business.
Pros:
One of the only MRP systems that fits our needs. We are a small manufacturer that sells wholesale to our dealers, and keeping track of our inventory and forecasting future manufacturing needs and purchasing requirements are key. MRPEasy has allowed us to meet both of those goals. Also, there customer support and success operations are very responsive and top notch!
Cons:
While it is good at the order processing function, there are some tweaks that could be made for those of us that drop ship to our dealer's customers. No deal breakers though - this is an excellent product.
Alternatives Considered: Zoho Inventory
Reasons for Choosing MRPeasy: Prior product did not have the functionality to forecast our manufacturing and purchasing needs and was too buggy.
Switched From: SOS Inventory
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: MRP forecasting capabilities. We need to see out 6-12 months due to long lead times for certain components.

CEO of Afterone OÜ
Pros:
An intuitive, visually appealing, and capable ERP system that is truly easy to use!
Cons:
Only downside is that customization is limited as the program is the same for all users. However, with careful planning to accommodate everyone, we've had many successful customization projects with the MRPeasy team.

Easy indeed
Comments: My overall experience with MRPeasy has been very positive. Previously, I was maintaining several complicated excel files to manage our production. Switching to MRPeasy eliminated all of those and greatly simplified our processes. Currently, I have a virtual assistant that takes care of all aspects of our order fulfillment using MRPeasy. It's very hands-off for me now.
Pros:
I like the simple, straight forward pricing and ease of implementation.
Cons:
We've encountered very few limitations. There have only been a couple of minor things that we wanted to do with the software but couldn't.
Alternatives Considered: Fishbowl and JobBOSS²

Thanks for sharing! We're happy MRPeasy has simplified your processes and made things easier for you. Glad to hear the transition from Excel was a success!
Excellent for this small company, and can see it would be scalable to larger firms.
Comments: 'Friendliest' MRP software I've experienced. Have used many, would not give any other 'stand-alone' MRP software 4 stars.
Pros:
Ability to ease into the system, walk before we run. We're a small company that did not have an existing MRP, some employees had no prior experience with MRP/ERP. Very intuitive and easy to learn/train to.
Cons:
Videos move at breakneck speed, but you can rewatch as many times as needed. Most users had this observation.
Alternatives Considered: ALLDATA and Sage 100
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: Free trial showed ease of use, ability to rollout at our speed, low initial cost if we decided later that it wasn't the right tool.

MRP for small companies
Comments: It has been Satisfactory to use, and extremely helpful.
Pros:
MRPeasy has facilitated our inventory control, so we have more visibility on the items that are critical on hand and allows us to take preventive measurements if the component is in backorder. I spent much less time doing inventory and actually looking for ways to improve the workflow as our company grows bigger.
Cons:
It requires some time to get used to the correct paths to delete or add some components but once the user is familiar with the platform, it becomes a useful tool. Additionally, It would be helpful upon the creation of the manufacturing order to add other BOMs to the same MO, instead of creating a new BOM that includes multiple BOMs.
Alternatives Considered: Focus MRP, NetSuite and Katana Cloud Inventory
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: In the meantime, we only need help with inventory control and some manufacturing workflow. Therefore, other solutions overwhelmed the overall scope we were looking for, and all those features come with a price. Which, we are not ready to implement yet.

Thank you for your detailed review!
Fantastic!
Comments: My experience with MRPeasy is fantastic! The transition has been seamless, my team really likes the new upgrade.
Pros:
Our Company had been using the same software for 17 years. This software is night and day compared to what we had. I have all the information I could need if I have any questions. I did not have that with our previous software. It's very user friendly and self explanatory, I can definitely figure out what I need with all the help they provide.
Cons:
The only thing I feel could be improved upon, is the quoting process. I don't like having to create an item to quote a product I might not receive. If it's possible to quote a job with out creating an item that would be amazing. Once I have the PO, then the system should prompt me to create the items.
Alternatives Considered: Fishbowl
Reasons for Choosing MRPeasy: I did not have videos, tutorial, information I could look up. Every time I needed something I had to call a representative that has all of Texas to cater too. I would be weeks before he could get to me or I would just have to figure it out.
Switched From: Pilot ERP
Reasons for Switching to MRPeasy: I felt it was the best option for our needs, after trying out all the systems and looking at multiple reviews, videos. I felt more comfortable with MRPeasy.

Thank you for the review. For quoting without stock item use Invoice mode, not Customer order mode.
Outrageous price increase
Comments: It takes at least a few weeks to input all of the necessary data and just as you get used to using it all/keeping records of material orders/PO etc, they hit you with a 30% price increase, off the back of sending an email to say "we've listened, now billing is even better and you don't pay for additional users". Clearly they've listened to their multi-national corporate outfits and trod on the small businesses. For transparency, we paid $130. Now being quoted $199, despite removing the cost for additional users. Seriously poor care for their users. We've just secured two major contracts with national retailers and had every intention of using the services for many years to come. I'm now looking elsewhere and would like to advise any potential new customer - be sure you're in it for the long run, because inputting all the date over and over again isn't convenient and if you can't find the time, you're stuck with their ridiculous price increases.
Pros:
The system is great - in theory, but you have to be committed to inputting everything perfectly before it works as you need it to.
Cons:
Takes a long, long time to set everything up. Not perfect unless you pay even more for other tools.

Multi function and easy to use
Pros:
Handling all functions from procurement to distribution, MRPeasy is a very complete tool, avoiding the use of several other software.
Cons:
Integration with other software of the market could be improved. API integration should be available from with professional or enterprise version.

Siven Sport Ltd Review
Comments: Although we are moving slowly with importing all necessary data so we can start operating the programme, our company is very satisfied with your product for the time being.
Pros:
MRPeasy is simple and easy to use while having all needed features for a small manufacturing like ours.
Cons:
Invoices can not be printed in Cyrillic. We faced some issues while importing tables with Cyrillic content, although all steps were adhered strictly. The programme produce long part numbers itself, which are rather confusing.

Solid and clean manufacturing and inventory management system
Comments: Overall MRPeasy gave us a great tool for production planning and inventory management.
Pros:
MRPeasy is easy to setup and use, clean uncluttered interface with all the essential functions necessary to manage manufacturing and inventory. After several years using it we value how solid this system is.
Cons:
Dashboard and reporting can be improved and some interface settings to visually highlight some stock items or inventory groups.

Review of MRPEasy
Comments: We have had a favourable experience.
Pros:
I like that it is web-based, and it is easy to go backwards to find a previois form.
Cons:
It can be difficult to see why an item is not avaible, if it has not been “received” correctly.

If you make items that require lot tracking, this is a must have.
Comments: This has changed our business and allowed us to get certifications and expand. We are using it for our skincare business that we sell on Amazon in the US, Canada, UK and EU. Also we use it for a small winery that we have started. It gives us many of the advantages that much larger companies have, but with more flexibility. An incredible $$ performer
Pros:
The product is incredibly easy to use, and we love the full audit trail on bom and routing changes. We have been able to get ISO and organic certifications and the auditors are very comfortable with the level of detail and traceabiltiy. So we can easily track a shipment back to the original raw materials.
Cons:
We have multiple small locations for manufacturing and make lots of small lots. So when I buy in 55 pounds of bees wax, I am splitting that across multiple locations. so that tracking has been really tough and I think it is because I found it difficult to understand sites and storage locations and how best to handle that. So I started out probably wrong and am still trying to figure it out.

Review of MRPeasy software.
Comments: It is a very good system for managing our stock inventory and mrp planning.
Pros:
The software makes it easy to know what materials and components are available, and where they are stored.
Cons:
What is missing is:1) a print pdf button on the Show Bookings page, so that we can get printout of what is missing from stock and can’t be booked.2) sometimes the auto-search feature is faulty in editing BOM’s. Example: if i type “resistor” into part column, filter does not bring up resistors, but if i add a space, and then backspace it, filter now works.
Simple and user friendly MRP System
Comments: Experience is quite good, all the functions we need are available.
Pros:
Simplicity and ease of use.Excellent help function and good training videos.
Cons:
Production planning of custom products is not optimal.Bulk editing should be possible in more functions than Items and Stock lots.CSV export is cumbersome; columns does not equal your chosen view and not possible to choose decimal separator.
MRPeasy Response

Thanks for your positive feedback. The decimal separator can be set in Settings -> Regional settings.
Good software and support
Comments: MRPeasy has been a great way for us to transitioning to MRP. We've formalised our item and BOM structures, improved our production planning and made our operational purchasing more robust with this software. Overall we are happy with the product.
Pros:
The interface is slick and modern. No issues with the software being slow. The program is intuitive and can be picked up easily. There is a surprising amount of functionality. The Junior MRP easily supports multi level BOMs, different production resources, customisable fields on items, adding images etc to items. Stocked and non-stocked items are supported, as are indivisible items (I've seen some much larger systems that don't support this). Safety stock levels can be easily set and maintained, allowing for simple planning. The inventory system allows a fair amount of freedom to define stock locations as needed. The purchasing system works fine, allowing easy tracking of what is on order. I'd say something similar for the Customer order interface -customer orders can be input easily, documents such as proforma or commercial invoices can be defined. We've definitely appreciated the customer support we've received. Answers come back within 24 hours and though not everything can always be changed, the answers are helpful. On more than one occasion I've provided feedback on certain screens and have had the response come back that yes, that sounds like a good change to make and we'll release that change in a week or so. We've found this super helpful and haven't seen that from too many other software companies.
Cons:
There is not too much here, but the main bugbear for us is the work orders. Our BOMs have multiple levels and we would expect that MRP would spit out individual work orders for each operation that needs to be done. Instead, a single work order comes out, which can be worked on by different resources, but when a production process can take several weeks that means things like WIP become hard to manage. So we have to either accept this and make that work or split our work orders down, which makes production planning more manual.

Hello James, Thank you very much for kind words and detailed feedback! Regarding too big work orders. MRPeasy has a special environment optimized for workers: Internet-kiosk. It shows tasks that are assigned to a particular worker. All other information, that isn't needed, is hidden. Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any additional questions.
MRP Easy is the perfect fit to to our business with a fast learning curve and is easy to use.
Comments: On the whole the software fits us perfectly. We develop and build real new concepts and technical products and although we use full assemblies to build keeping our BOM's short and supply list down I can see that it can easily handle growth and more complex things. Its something that I think is critical as I don't want to waist time learning something else later.
Pros:
The progressive nature of the software and its ability to jump to the exact page you need. It's pretty too in the simplest non-cluttered clean way. Very we written with nothing to clutter things up or slow you down. I think it's excellent and would recommend it to anyone.
Cons:
I wish there was a button to jump straight to Bill of materials or even a custom shortcut ability to choose what you want it to jump to i.e. show all Bill of materials or what ever the user wanted to find. Like a star after a search has been done when selected it adds it to a favourites.
