Built from
frustration.
Driven by
honesty.
After nearly a decade inside ERP implementations — from discovery call to go-live — I kept watching the same tragedy unfold. I built ERPLenz to change it.
ERPLenz is a vendor-agnostic ERP selection tool. It evaluates your business across 116 questions in 17 categories, scores 17 ERP systems using a weighted model, and produces a ranked shortlist in under 30 minutes. No vendor relationships. No commission. Just the right fit.
Take the Assessment
The tragedy that keeps repeating itself.
My name is Dylan Coetzee. I'm an ERP consultant and developer with close to a decade of hands-on implementation experience across multiple platforms — from ambitious startups to NASDAQ-listed enterprises managing complex, multi-entity operations.
That range matters. I understand what a growing SME actually needs just as clearly as I understand what an enterprise demands. And more importantly — I understand the costly mistake of giving one the system built for the other.
I've sat in the room when the wrong system gets selected. I've watched businesses pay the price for years afterward. And I've seen how differently things go when a business truly understands what they need before they sign anything.
That experience is what powers every question in this platform.
The conflict of interest nobody talks about.
The ERP industry has a structural problem. The people best positioned to advise you on which system to choose — vendors and their partners — are the same people who earn commission when you buy. That's not a criticism. It's just the reality of how the industry is structured.
The result is that too many businesses end up in systems that are:
Too expensive for their current size and growth trajectory
Too complex for their team to actually adopt
Too rigid for how they actually operate
Too simple for where they're genuinely heading
The cost isn't just financial. It's months of disruption, team frustration, and the painful process of starting over — sometimes just a few years later.
What ERPLenz does differently.
Four principles that separate this from every other ERP comparison tool on the market.
Built on real implementation experience
The questions reflect what actually matters during a live deployment — not vendor marketing brochures.
Reports your team can act on
Not a blog post. A structured document your IT director, CFO, and implementation partner can actually use.
“Why Not X?” for every excluded vendor
The Deep Report explains exactly why each of the 17 platforms wasn't your top pick — giving you the ammunition to push back on vendor sales pitches with hard data and confidence.
Built for people making a serious decision.
ERPLenz is built for business owners, CFOs, and operations leaders who are about to make one of the most significant technology decisions of their business journey.
If you're evaluating ERP systems for the first time, recovering from a bad selection, or simply trying to make sense of a confusing market — this platform was built for you.
