ERPNext Success Stories & Case Studies
Explore real ERPNext implementations by ERPNext Experts Africa across manufacturing, distribution, construction, healthcare, professional services and non-profit organizations, from a multi-branch business in Kenya to a healthcare provider in Zambia and an NGO operating in several African countries.

ERPNext Case Studies: Frequently Asked Questions
What do your ERPNext case studies cover?
Each case study describes the client’s situation and challenges, the ERPNext modules, customizations and integrations we implemented, how data was migrated, and the business improvements after go-live. Client names are not published, but the industry, location and scope of each project are described.
Which industries and countries do your ERPNext projects cover?
Our case studies cover manufacturing, distribution, construction, professional services, healthcare and non-profit organizations. We have offices in Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and South Africa and support clients across the region, including Uganda, South Sudan, Botswana and Namibia.
How long does an ERPNext implementation take?
It depends on scope. A focused rollout of accounting, sales, purchasing and inventory for a smaller business can go live in a few weeks, while multi-branch or multi-country projects with manufacturing, payroll and custom integrations typically take a few months. We agree a phased plan with clear milestones before work starts.
What does an ERPNext implementation with ERPNext Experts Africa include?
Every project follows four steps: understanding and planning your processes; configuring and customizing ERPNext, including integrations; migrating your data, testing and training your users; and going live with ongoing support. See our ERPNext implementation services for details.
Can ERPNext replace our current accounting or ERP system?
Yes. Most of the organizations in our case studies moved to ERPNext from spreadsheets or separate software. We migrate data from systems such as QuickBooks, Sage, Tally, Odoo and Excel, and reconcile opening balances before go-live. See our ERPNext migration services.
Can we discuss a project similar to one of these case studies?
Yes. Tell us about your organization and the challenges you face, and our consultants will explain how a similar ERPNext solution could work for you. Request a consultation to get started.
