Quoted by the vendor
Acumatica gives pricing through calculators and a partner quote.
Each button opens the vendor's own page in a new tab, where you buy or sign up. Prices are the vendor's, shown in rand.
Acumatica does not publish a price. The vendor gives it after you contact them, and the quote is the product: ask for the monthly price with the VAT basis stated, what is charged once only, and which SARS returns it handles for you.

Price on request
Starting prices of the priced products in the same category, cheapest first. This is a price sort, not a ranking: the cheapest product is not the best one, and some are priced per user, some per month and some excluding VAT.
Bar lengths use a square root scale, so a very high price does not flatten the rest. The figures are exact.
Price on request, so not charted: Acumatica, NetSuite, Sage 200 Evolution, Sage X3, SAP Business One, SYSPRO.
A founding year says how long a company has existed. It says nothing about how good the product is.

Cloud ERP overview
Overview, 7:14, published 8 January 2025. From the Acumatica channel on YouTube.

Acumatica says it is designed to help small and mid market businesses thrive in the digital economy. The platform bundles financial management with industry editions and adds project accounting, CRM, payroll management, inventory control, warehouse management and business intelligence reporting.
Acumatica lists South Africa among the countries for which it offers localisation, but the page does not describe regional operations, support hours or local partners. Ask the vendor for the name of the local partner, the South African VAT outputs and a reference customer.
The page is general, and a buyer must rely on a demonstration and a partner's quote to learn what the product costs and how it handles South African requirements.
Against NetSuite, Acumatica is the challenger with explicit South African localisation on its list. See the full comparison.

The partner matters as much as the product
An ERP joins your accounts, stock, buying, selling and sometimes manufacturing in one system. It is priced by quote and delivered by a partner. How to know if you need one, and how to buy one without being surprised.
