WebSoftOSCloud ERP for small and mid-size businesses
WebSoftOS gives Indian SMEs a fully hosted ERP — GST accounting with e-invoice and e-way bill, inventory and warehouses, sales and purchase, CRM, POS and payroll — on the open-source ERPNext platform, with built-in AI agents, daily backups and your own domain. Plans start at ₹999 per month and a free trial is available.
Who it is for
- Traders, distributors and wholesalers

- Retail and restaurant businesses (POS)
- Businesses outgrowing Tally, Busy or Marg
Problems it solves
- Accounting is in Tally but stock, orders and customers are in Excel and WhatsApp.
- Owners cannot see receivables, stock and margin without calling the accountant.

Pricing
SME Business Management ERP runs on the same WebSoftOS platform plans: a free trial, Standard at ₹999/month and Enterprise at ₹1,999/month. Each plan is a fully hosted ERP site with daily backups, HTTPS and your own domain. See pricing for current inclusions.
Implementation
Most SMEs go live in 1–2 weeks: masters and opening balances are imported from your current software, GST settings are configured, and staff are trained in short role-wise sessions.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best ERP for SMEs in India?
For most Indian SMEs the deciding factors are GST compliance, inventory, ease of use and price. Tally and Busy are strong for accounting alone; cloud ERPs such as WebSoftOS, Zoho and Odoo add inventory, CRM and remote access. WebSoftOS is built on ERPNext and includes vertical modules (construction, hotel, school, transport, payroll) on the same platform.
How much does it cost?
A free trial is available; the Standard plan is ₹999/month and Enterprise ₹1,999/month. See pricing for what is included.
Can I move from Tally, Busy or Marg?
Yes — masters, ledgers, items and opening balances are imported during onboarding. See the comparison pages.
