Is a custom ERP cheaper than SAP, Odoo or NetSuite?

Not in year one. A custom ERP from Tackle Studioz typically costs more upfront and less over five years, because per-seat licence costs compound while a build you own does not — the crossover usually lands between years two and four.

Can you integrate with our existing accounting software?

Yes. Most engagements keep the accounting system in place and integrate with it, since replacing a working ledger adds risk without adding value.

How long does an ERP migration take?

A single-module replacement typically runs eight to twelve weeks; a full multi-module platform with legacy migration usually runs six to nine months, delivered module by module so value arrives before the end.

Custom ERP & Internal Platforms

Operations software shaped around how your business actually runs — inventory, billing, reconciliation, approvals — instead of bending the business around a subscription.

How we approach it

Tackle Studioz builds internal platforms for operators: inventory, billing, reconciliation, approvals, and the reporting that sits on top. The reason to build rather than subscribe is usually that the process is the advantage, and generic ERP forces you to give it up.

We map the process before we design the schema

Discovery means sitting with the people who run the process and watching them work, including the spreadsheet they keep on the side because the current system cannot express something. That spreadsheet is usually the most important requirement in the project.

The data model comes out of that mapping. Getting it wrong is the single most expensive mistake in an ERP build, because everything downstream inherits it.

Migrating off the system you already have

Legacy data is never as clean as anyone expects. We run the migration repeatedly against production copies well before cutover, so the reconciliation problems surface while there is still time to decide what to do about them.

Cutover runs in parallel where the process allows it, with the old system readable for a defined period afterwards.

Roles, approvals and the audit trail

Internal platforms fail on permissions more often than on features. Roles are modelled against the real approval chain, and every state change is recorded with who did it and when, because the first serious question anyone asks of an ERP is what happened to a specific order.
