SaaS-first SME ERP for India
MAFLO vs TranZact
TranZact runs the office. MAFLO runs the line.
Short answer
TranZact is a SaaS-first SME ERP good at finance, sales and basic operations for ₹5–20 Cr Indian businesses. MAFLO is purpose-built for manufacturing operations — exception-first MRP, coil/SKU-level shop-floor MES, multi-depot Reserved-vs-Available inventory, and a distributor + dealer + QR-loyalty + UPI payout layer that horizontal SME ERPs do not ship. Both products can coexist; many customers use TranZact in the office and MAFLO on the line.
TranZact is brilliant at
- Onboarding velocity — most customers live within 2 weeks of signup
- Clean, modern UX tuned for Indian SME owner-operators
- GST/e-invoice/IRN/E-way bill flow polished and audit-ready
- Mobile-first reporting and approvals — works the way owners actually run their day
Where it falls short for an Indian ₹10–50 Cr manufacturer
- Exception-first MRP — TranZact runs net-requirement MRP but does not surface FG → SFG → RM peg or capacity violations as exceptions
- Coil/SKU-level barcoded MES with handheld QC at the line — needs you to bolt on hardware separately
- Multi-depot Reserved vs Available inventory — TranZact tracks branches but does not separate the three layers in real time
- Distributor → Dealer → QR-loyalty → UPI payout layer — not in their roadmap
- Industry templates for wires/cables, laminates, resins — TranZact is horizontal
The TCO trap to watch for
Per-user subscription compounds: 50 users × ₹500–800/user/mo × 60 months = ₹15–24L over 5 years before add-on connectors, custom reports or implementation overruns. The bill is on autopilot for the life of the relationship.
MAFLO · 5-yr indicative
₹13.5L (₹7.5L setup + 4 × ₹1.5L AMC)

Bring this to the conversation
“TranZact is a clean SME ERP — finance, sales, basic operations. MAFLO sits where TranZact stops: real shop-floor MES, exception-first MRP, multi-depot Reserved-vs-Available inventory, and the distributor-loyalty-UPI payout layer Indian B2B2C manufacturers actually need.”
