Benefits of Our ERPNext Custom Development

Request a Consultation illustration

Built on Frappe

Custom apps use the Frappe framework, so they look and work like the rest of ERPNext and share its users and permissions.

Upgrade-Friendly

Custom code is kept in separate apps rather than changes to ERPNext itself, which keeps upgrades manageable.

One Set of Data

New modules use the same database as accounting, stock and HR, so there is no separate system to reconcile.

Data management

Portals and Mobile Access

Customer, supplier and employee portals, and mobile-friendly or native mobile apps on a Frappe backend.

Customer service

Maintainable Code

Documented code that your team or a support partner can maintain over time.

Let us help you eliminate bottlenecks, automate operations,
and build a more efficient business.

Custom ERPNext Apps We Build

When standard features and customization are not enough, we build new functionality on the Frappe framework, for example:

  • Industry modules such as quality management, college and student management, and property and lease management
  • Asset and maintenance management extensions
  • Field sales, delivery and data-collection apps
  • Customer, supplier and employee self-service portals
  • Automations, scheduled jobs and complex calculations
  • Integrations with tax authorities, banks and third-party systems (see our integration services)

Every project follows a clear path: scoping, prototype, development, testing on your data, deployment and handover. See ERPNext pricing in Africa for how projects are priced.

ERPNext Custom Development: Frequently Asked Questions

When do we need ERPNext custom development?

When your requirement cannot be met by ERPNext’s standard features or built-in customization tools, such as a new module, a complex calculation, a portal or a mobile app.

How do you keep custom code upgrade-safe?

We build custom functionality as separate Frappe apps instead of changing ERPNext’s core code, and test them before each major upgrade.

Can you build mobile apps on ERPNext?

Yes. Mobile apps for Android and iOS can use ERPNext and the Frappe framework as their backend, sharing the same data and permissions.

How long does a custom development project take?

Small extensions can take days to a few weeks; new modules or apps usually take several weeks, delivered in stages with a prototype first.

How much does ERPNext custom development cost?

It depends on scope. We provide a fixed quote after a short scoping session. See ERPNext pricing in Africa.
