Section 06 · ERP costs

What an ERP really costs over 3 and 5 years

Compare up to three of 10 systems over 3 and 5 years: licences, implementation, add-ons, integrations, internal time and run costs. Licence prices are official list prices where vendors publish them, otherwise sourced estimates; implementation and running costs are labelled assumptions you can change.

Integrations (count) assumption
Add-ons

Estimate, not a quote. Currency conversion uses ECB reference rates of 2026-10-16. Click any number to see how it was calculated.

How the estimate is built

Six cost components

Licences / subscriptions, Implementation, Add-ons / ISV apps, Integrations, Internal time + training, Run costs (support, hosting). One-time costs fall in year 1; yearly costs repeat, with partner support from year 2.

Every number is labelled

official from the vendor's price page (5 of 10 systems),estimate from a named secondary source,assumption with its rationale, or not published and excluded.

Estimate, not a quote

List prices before negotiation and tax; implementation hours are ranges, so results show low, expected and high. Read the full methodology.

Pricing by system

Licence prices, what they leave out, and three worked 3- and 5-year examples per system.
