What it is
abas ERP is designed for midmarket manufacturers and connects purchasing, sales, production, warehouse, service, finance, and management processes. Its production tools handle planning and control for one-off, repetitive, project, contract, and subcontracting manufacturers, alongside advanced planning and scheduling. Teams can customize processes with low-code tools that the maker describes as upgrade-compatible. Abas Connect supports graphical, low-code links to software and devices such as CRM, machine controls, and warehouse management systems. A REST API provides real-time read and write access to ERP data through the core logic and company-specific customizations. Listed connectors include DMS, Microsoft SQL, and PDM, with standard PDM connections to PRO.FILE and keytech PLM. The system uses Linux as its server operating system, and a cloud edition runs on AWS infrastructure. Users can access the system from Windows computers and mobile devices or through a browser. Pricing is available on request; implementation costs vary by users, process complexity, data migration, desired functions, and adjustments. One-time software, implementation, and ongoing support costs are listed.
