We were looking for a long time for a suitable ERP that can deal well with international invoicing, billing, collaboration but could also be easily used and affordable for a startup. Then we found SIX and it was super easy, cost transparent and so easy to integrate that we even built part of the backend of our new plattform directly into the ERP so everything is now super connected, automated and saves us a lot of development, administration and more.
- Very easy to use
- Super fast
- Affordable (great transparent pricing)
- Super easy to expand and integrate other systems
- Offers more modules and functionalities as many other ERPs

- SIX saved a significant cost for Backend
- We could cancel other subscriptions in order to streamline
- Till now the ROI Break-Even was achieved already after 4 Months
We screened over 20 different solutions from local and international ERP providers. Especially the costs to scale, the easy integration and the vast functionalities were unbeatable at the price it offers. Another big plus-point was the nice interface and that it really works fast and frictionless. Some of the other systems were really slow and tedious to handle. So our team was quite happy with how easy SIX was to use.

Business, Marketing, Sales, Business Development, Project Management, IT staff, and more. Our volunteers also use the system if we make events or plan other projects for #bethechange or MoreThanDigital Insights. We even think about setting up a second ERP when we are splitting the projects because it gives a better workflow and we look forward for the feature to connect these two together.

Pretty much it is just me who is the most "power user", but we also have good contact with the vendor and the founder, and till now, they were really supportive in getting everyone on board. A huge plus is that the system is quite easy to use, so there is not a lot of support needed, and even volunteers which are using the system for some weeks don't need support or training as they find it intuitive to work with.
- Sales
- Backend incl. Automation of Invoices for the new Platform
- Business Development
- Finances & Accounting
- Dashboard
- Central Data Management
- We fully integrated the new platform to automate literally everything from user accounts to invoicing and follow-ups.
- We love that now even forms, marketing automation, and many more things are possible. No other ERP has had this so far, and it works really well without needing external services like Hubspot etc.
- We will integrate it with our other projects and connect more platforms.
- We will plan on expanding, as there is no extra fees we also use it more often and use it with more users, external people etc. as we don't have to fear for extra costs.
Yes
We replaced several different systems from Hubspot, Swiss Accounting System, WordPress Forms, and Excel. A big plus was also the project management module which gave us a lot of freedom to work with partners, our projects, or even with some of our volunteers.

For us the pricing, scalability (literally unlimited users) and especially the possible integration with our platform were driving factor. Many competitors we had on the shortlist were MUCH more expensive to maintain (3-50 times) and way more expensive to implement with our platform (2-5 times). Also the whole team loved the interface, the ease of use, and the functionalities it had. You feel that the system is "state-of-the-art" and not just some legacy system like SAGE, SAP etc. which feels a little old and clumsy (and slow).
We would definitely don't waste so much time on going for the "big names" as they were clearly a disappointment and also so expensive that we could have safed us the time. What we also hated was the intransparent pricing of most ERP solutions and this is where SIX was really standing out. One price and no "Reach out to us for pricing".
And another learning ... most "best erp" articles are pretty much useless.
