abas ERP vs QAD Adaptive ERP

abas ERP is an ERP system for midmarket manufacturing companies, bringing together purchasing, sales, production, warehouse, service, finance, and management. Its production tools cover planning and control for one-off, repetitive, project, contract, and subcontracting manufacturers, with advanced planning and scheduling, capacity planning, and multi-site planning. The system supports multi-level bills of materials, purchase planning, and demand inputs from both demand and forecasts.

Abas Connect provides graphical, low-code links to software and devices such as CRM, machine controls, and warehouse management systems. A REST API supports real-time read and write access to ERP data through its core logic and company-specific customizations. Abas ERP uses Linux servers, with a cloud edition on AWS infrastructure, and can be accessed through Windows computers, mobile devices, or a browser.
