Why Should I Choose Rootstock?

A manufacturing ERP like Rootstock is specifically designed to support the unique workflows common to all manufacturers to achieve operational targets more efficiently with the right capabilities. A “generic” ERP is focused on the financial workflows that all businesses have but must be configured or customized to support those same workflows. Rootstock refers to our underlying architecture as a “manufacturing operating system” that is purpose built with financial workflows such as accounts receivables (AR) and accounts payable (AP) where AP is intertwined with supply chain functions which are more complex than simple vendor issues. Of course, a manufacturing ERP must support inventory management which is complicated by raw materials coming in and finished goods going out that a non-manufacturer would not need. Finally, all of the specific manufacturing operational processes such as work orders, work instructions, and quality disposition are again, intertwined with all of the above. Building this into a generic ERP is how implementations go wrong and take twice as long as they should. If you’re a manufacturer, you should be using a manufacturing ERP for faster and measurable implementation timelines and faster time to value. If you’re on the Salesforce Platform, you should be using Rootstock because having one platform for your manufacturing function and business functions can significantly reduce total cost of ownership over time.
