ERP for SMB market

Small and medium-sized businesses usually have a limited number of people and financial resources available. Software should take over as much work as possible. The Exact App Center is there to help entrepreneurs. Via the App Center, an Exact Online-customer can connect more and more relevant apps to his financial software. For example, a retailer is able to connect the POS system to the accounting software for real-time insights in the stock. A manufacturer can choose for a time tracking app on top of Exact Online Production, which tracks cost prices real-time. Webshop owners can choose besides Exact Online for branch specific apps to integrate their orders and payments into the accounting system.

Branch specific apps

The Exact App Center contains apps in many categories, such as accounting, e-commerce (webshops), education, wholesale, manufacturing, retail and business services. The so called scan solutions belong to the most popular apps. These apps automatically translate invoices into a proposed booking in Exact Online. Accountants are currently interested in apps that provide additional reporting possibilities and trend analysis they can use to quickly understand the expected business results of a client. This also allows SMB entrepreneurs to have an easy and affordable ERP system tailored to the specific needs of the company.
