For context, JobBOSS² is a manufacturing erp product. Established job-shop ERP with real scheduling, and no published price. Its weakest points, in our reading, are: small shops. this is an erp purchase with an erp sales process, and anyone who needs a price before committing time to a demo.

If you are switching for: better for job shops

Before you switch anything

  • · Check the export path out of your current system before you commit to the next one.
  • · Price the new system for your real team size and the modules you need, not the headline tier.
  • · Migration is usually the expensive part, and almost nobody budgets for it.
