SAP is built for large companies. Stitchfloor is built for the small garment floor.

SAP Business One and S/4HANA Cloud are serious ERP systems, sold and set up by partners, with a depth Stitchfloor does not try to match. They cost what serious ERP costs: by partners' published estimates, a 10-user SAP Business One set-up comes to roughly ₹0.8 to 1.4 lakh a month once licences and implementation are spread over three years.1, 2 Stitchfloor's top plan is ₹14,499.

01The short answer

Which one should you pick?

SAP and Stitchfloor are built for different sizes of company. Here is how we would decide.

Pick SAP if

Depth, room to grow, and a partner to run the project.

  • You need production, accounting, stock and India's GST localisation in one system, set up to your processes by a partner.3, 4
  • You expect to grow into enterprise ERP: SAP pitched GROW with SAP at companies with fewer than 2,000 people and $100 million to $1 billion in revenue.5
  • You have a budget for an implementation partner and months for the project.2
  • You want e-invoicing through ClearTax inside the ERP.6

Pick Stitchfloor if

A small garment unit that wants to start now.

  • An ERP project's price and timeline are the reason you never started one.
  • You want to see the software working before you pay anyone: the demo opens every desk on a sample factory.
  • Supervisors should record work in Hindi, on their phones.
  • You pay piece rates and send lots to printers.
  • You can do without e-invoices and statutory books in the app, with your accountant keeping those.
02Side by side

Feature by feature, against SAP Business One.

Every SAP cell links to SAP's own documents or a partner's published page. Where Stitchfloor is behind, the table says so. A live workspace is your company's own Stitchfloor, as opposed to the public demo.

03Fair to both

Where each one is stronger.

SAP is the deeper system by a long way. Stitchfloor is the one a small garment unit can afford to try this week.

SAPWhere it is stronger

  • Depth.Accounting, stock, production and India's GST localisation in one system, with job work through external warehouses.3, 4
  • Room to grow.If a company outgrows Business One, SAP has S/4HANA Cloud for companies far larger than a garment unit.5
  • A partner network.Partners set it up, configure it and support it, and third parties sell add-ons such as India payroll.2, 7
  • E-invoicing.From Business One 10.0 FP 2405, invoices go to the IRP through ClearTax.6
  • Mobile apps.Sales and service apps on Android, and a Business One app on the App Store.8, 9

StitchfloorWhere it is different

  • Price.Stitchfloor's top plan is ₹14,499 a month. The partner estimates on this page for a 10-user Business One set-up come to about four to ten times that.
  • Time to see it.The demo opens every desk on a sample factory now, with a shared password and nothing to install.
  • Built for a garment floor.Lots by stage, printers, piece rates per process, fabric by weight and colour, garments by design and size.
  • Hindi where the work happens.The Production, Operations and Inventory desks run in Hindi on the web and on Android, with 41 spoken instructions. Printed documents stay in English.
  • Speak the entry.On a live workspace a supervisor says one sentence in Hindi or Hinglish. The form fills in from your own workers and open lots, and the factory's six processes, and nothing saves until a person confirms it.
04What it costs

The prices, with the arithmetic.

SAP does not publish these prices, so the figures are partners' published estimates, for 10 users, before GST, with one-time costs spread over 36 months.

Business One, subscription

₹97,222to ₹1,44,444 a month

Licence at ₹7,500 per user a month, plus implementation.1, 2

  1. Licence, 10 × ₹7,500₹75,000
  2. Implementation, ₹8 to 25 lakh ÷ 36₹22,222 to ₹69,444
  3. A month₹97,222 to ₹1,44,444

Business One, bought outright

₹82,667to ₹1,29,889 a month

About ₹1.36 lakh per user, 20% a year maintenance, plus implementation.1, 2

  1. Licence, 10 × ₹1.36 lakh ÷ 36₹37,778
  2. Maintenance, 20% a year₹22,667
  3. Implementation ÷ 36₹22,222 to ₹69,444
  4. A month₹82,667 to ₹1,29,889

S/4HANA Cloud (GROW)

₹1.5 lakhto ₹3 lakh a month

One partner's subscription range for smaller companies, before implementation.2, 11

  1. Subscription, one partner₹1.5 to 3 lakh
  2. Implementation, that partnerabout ₹1.5 to 7.5 lakh
  3. Subscription, another partner₹50,000 to 1.5 lakh
  4. Implementation, that partner₹80 lakh to ₹5 crore

Stitchfloor Factory

₹11,999a month

The plan we recommend: the floor and the office on one record.

  1. Essentials₹6,999
  2. Factory₹11,999
  3. Intelligence₹14,499

What each plan includes

Partner estimates differ widely. Praxis also quotes a professional user from ₹3,600 a month, which brings the Business One subscription floor to about ₹58,222 a month (10 × ₹3,600, plus ₹22,222). The figures exclude GST, hosting for an outright licence, ClearTax fees and your own staff's time.1, 2, 6

SAP did not disclose GROW pricing at launch. For Stitchfloor, prices are per month. Ask us for a written quote.5

05Other big ERPs

S/4HANA Cloud, NetSuite and Business Central, in brief.

Three more large systems a growing factory hears about, on the same footing: what they cost, how long they take, and how they handle Hindi and India's GST.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud (GROW)

  • Who it is forCompanies with fewer than 2,000 people and $100 million to $1 billion in revenue, as SAP pitched it at launch.5
  • PriceNot published. Partners estimate ₹1.5 to 3 lakh a month, or ₹50,000 to 1.5 lakh, before implementation.2, 11
  • Set-upSAP said GROW customers could go live in a few weeks (2023); one partner quotes 8 to 16 weeks.11, 12
  • HindiNot found among the languages we checked.13
  • India complianceE-way bills and e-invoices through SAP Document and Reporting Compliance.14

Oracle NetSuite

  • PriceNot published. A partner estimates a base licence of about $1,099 a month plus $99 to $149 per full user: $2,089 to $2,589 a month for 10 users.15
  • Set-up₹8 to 18 lakh and 3 to 5 months for a small business, by the same partner.15
  • HindiNo: not in NetSuite's interface languages.16
  • India complianceE-way bills and e-invoices through the India Localization SuiteTax Engine, set up with your account manager.17
  • PhonesFree apps on Google Play and the App Store.18

Dynamics 365 Business Central

  • PriceThe only one here with an official India price: ₹6,655 (Essentials) or ₹9,150 (Premium) per user a month, paid yearly, GST extra. Manufacturing needs Premium, so 10 users are ₹91,500 a month before implementation.19, 20
  • Set-up8 to 20 weeks, with manufacturing at the long end (partner estimate).21
  • HindiNo: not in Microsoft's supported languages.22
  • India complianceGST, e-way bills and e-invoices in the India localisation; e-way bills and e-invoices move as files you export and import.23, 24, 25
  • AICopilot is included; agents are billed per use in Copilot Credits.20, 26
06If you outgrow it

Start small. Your records come with you.

If the factory grows into an ERP later, nothing you record in Stitchfloor is locked in.

  1. Today

    Run the floor in Stitchfloor

    Lots, job cards, piece-rate wages, stock, GST invoices, e-way bills on live workspaces, receivables and payables.

  2. Alongside

    Your accountant keeps the statutory books

    The trial balance, input GST, depreciation and GST returns stay with the person who files them.

  3. Later

    Take the records with you

    An administrator can download the whole workspace from Settings at any time as one file, and several registers and reports download as CSV.

There is no migration tool to SAP Stitchfloor does not connect to SAP, NetSuite or Business Central. What it gives you is your own records, as files, for whoever sets up the next system.
07Questions

Before you choose.

Is Stitchfloor an ERP?

It covers part of what an ERP does, for one kind of business: production, stock, GST invoices, e-way bills on live workspaces, receivables and payables for a garment factory. It has no bill of materials or MRP, no e-invoices and no statutory books; your accountant keeps those.

Why are the SAP prices estimates?

SAP sells Business One and GROW through partners and does not publish a price list. The figures on this page are partners' own published estimates. They disagree, so we show the range and name each source.1, 2, 5, 10

Is an ERP project risky?

It can be, whoever the vendor is. Gartner predicts that by 2027 more than 70% of recently implemented ERP initiatives will fail to fully meet their original business-case goals, and in Panorama's 2026 ERP Report more than a quarter of organisations said their project ran over budget.27, 28 Neither figure is about SAP alone.

Which big ERP has a published India price?

Of the four on this page, only Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: ₹6,655 or ₹9,150 per user a month, paid yearly, with GST extra.19 For SAP and NetSuite the figures are partner estimates.

Can I try it before I talk to you?

Yes. The public demo at demo.stitchfloor.com opens every desk on a sample factory, with a shared password and nothing to install. Voice entry and e-way bill filing need a live workspace; in the demo an e-way bill number is typed in by hand. The online catalogue and Leads are in the demo too; on a live workspace they need a one-time setup step.
