Adams Small Business ERP

A practical ERP built for small businesses

You shouldn't need enterprise-sized software—or an enterprise-sized monthly bill—to keep your business organized.

Adams Small Business ERP 2.0 is a desktop business management system designed for small product-based businesses, makers, workshops, job shops, and growing companies that have outgrown spreadsheets but don't need the complexity or cost of a large corporate ERP system.

The goal is simple:

Give small businesses the tools they actually need at a price they can afford.

One application. Your business in one place.

Adams Small Business ERP connects the major parts of your operation so you can spend less time maintaining separate spreadsheets and more time running your business.

No monthly ERP bill

Many business software products charge every month—and often charge separately for every user.

Adams Small Business ERP takes a different approach.

Price: $99

One-time purchase.

There is no monthly subscription required to continue using the software.

Your purchase includes the Adams Small Business ERP 2.x product generation, including maintenance and bug-fix releases made available for that version.

Future major generations may be offered as optional paid upgrades.

Your business data stays with you

Adams Small Business ERP is a desktop application.

Your ERP database is stored locally rather than requiring your company to operate from a cloud service.

The software also includes backup, restore, and standard data-export capabilities so you're not dependent on a proprietary cloud account just to access your business information.

Built for real small businesses

This isn't intended to compete by piling hundreds of enterprise features onto your screen.

It's designed around the workflows smaller product businesses actually use:

Quote → Sales Order → Invoice → Payment

Purchase Order → Receipt → Vendor Bill

Materials → Work Order → Production → Inventory

The result is a system that's considerably more capable than a collection of spreadsheets without requiring a small business owner to become an ERP administrator.

Who is it for?

Adams Small Business ERP is particularly suited to:

• Makers and crafts businesses
• Small manufacturers
• Woodworking and fabrication shops
• Job shops
• Product-based side businesses
• Online sellers managing their own inventory
• Small wholesale businesses
• Growing businesses moving beyond spreadsheets

It may also be a good fit for a new business that wants to establish organized processes before spreadsheets multiply throughout the company.

What makes Adams Small Business ERP different?

Affordable: $99 instead of another recurring monthly software bill.

Local: Your primary business database resides on your computer.

Integrated: Sales, purchasing, inventory, manufacturing, billing and reporting work together.

Portable: Backup, restore and data-export tools are built in.
