ERP Selection: This ultimate guide provides in-depth information about ERP selection process, ERP industry, and change management.

When evaluating small businesses for this list, we define them as companies generating between $10 million and $100 million in revenue or an equivalent metric where revenue may not be a reliable indicator, such as in pharmaceuticals or medical devices. Our analysis spans all industries, which means that while the list itself is valuable, the order of rankings may not apply universally. Some products may be better suited for specific industries, and others may not be relevant at all. That’s why it’s crucial to pay close attention to the commentary on where each product excels. Additionally, because we are strictly focusing on small businesses, the companies in this segment tend to have limited implementation budgets—though not as constrained as startups. These businesses have matured beyond the startup phase and are now seeking their second ERP system, refining their operational processes in a way that startups typically do not. A key consideration here is when businesses outgrow simpler accounting solutions like QuickBooks. While some companies can manage with QuickBooks even at $50 million or $100 million in revenue due to strong margins and lower operational complexity, others—particularly those in product-based industries—require an ERP system by the time they reach $30 million. This is often the inflection point where process inefficiencies become too costly to ignore. In contrast, service-based industries may have different needs and adoption timelines for ERP solutions. Even though these small businesses are implementing ERPs, their process maturity remains limited, especially in planning. Advanced planning tools and complex integrations may be overwhelming at this stage, leading these businesses to favor simpler systems with larger third-party ecosystems and readily available add-ons. To curate this list, we used several criteria to evaluate ERP products, ensuring they align well with small businesses. These factors include overall product share, acquisition strategies of ERP vendors, the extent of their focus on small businesses, the strength of their product roadmap, the engagement and size of their community ecosystem, their win rate in competitive sales situations, and their overall technology strategy and investor backing. Each of these elements plays a crucial role in determining which ERP systems are best suited for this market segment. Now, with these considerations in mind, let’s dive into the list and explore the top ERP solutions for small businesses. The list covered as part of this video: 10. Sage Intacct 9. Epicor Kinetic 8. Aptean Food and Beverage ERP 7. Epicor Prophet 21 6. Infor CloudSuite Industrial 5. Rootstock 4. NetSuite 3. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2. SYSPRO 1.
