How Acumatica Pricing Structure Can Be an Advantage for Your Company
Posted on: March 13, 2024 | By: Page Wildridge | Acumatica
Most of the time when you are looking at an ERP Solution the conversation about pricing is a dreaded conversation. Sometimes the conversation is complex where you need to figure out how many users you have and what type of user they are – full user, read-only, limited, task user, etc. Does a user need the whole solution or only warehouse functionality? In addition, you must consider the need for a user to upgrade from one type to another. So to solve this issue Acumatica reimagined ERP pricing!
The question Acumatica asked was “Does ERP pricing need to be by user?” “What if it wasn’t priced by user?” The answer was that the pricing could be an advantage if it didn’t follow the traditional by user model. So how does Acumatica’s non-user-based pricing help?
Consider an executive who looks at dashboards and metrics and occasionally submits an expense report. In other systems that executive would have to pay for some type of user and maybe even a full user to submit expense reports. The company doesn’t want to pay for a full user for occasional use so the company continues to use Excel or some other “off system” tool to handle expense reporting. But in Acumatica you don’t care if you add another user. You simply add them, add security roles, and have the user only access the system when needed…. without extra cost!
Another advantage of non-user-based pricing is in a warehouse or project accounting intensive environment. Companies that fall into this category can have a large number of users and again need various kinds of user licenses sold by other ERP solutions. In Acumatica you can have hundreds of warehouse or project accounting users who only do a few simple tasks (entering a timesheet, confirming warehouse shipments) and again you don’t need to manage complex licensing needs.
