Key differences
Operations or accounting at the core
Campfire starts from accounting, reconciliation and the close. ianaiERP starts from production and inventory, so inventory valuation, work in process and cost of goods come straight from the shop floor into the books.
Who uses it every day
Campfire's users are mainly the finance team. ianaiERP is used by planners, production supervisors, warehouse staff and finance, including on a mobile app with barcode scanning.
Implementation
ianaiERP's AI configures the system and migrates your data as part of implementation, and most customers are live in about 8 weeks.
One system or two
Some companies run a finance-first ERP for the books and a separate system for operations. ianaiERP removes that split by keeping finance and operations on one database.
