Implementation

Print Page

Abel has been specifically developed to deliver ease of implementation and outstanding adaptability, and can incorporate most customers’ business processes into a single wholly-integrated system.

Our team of experienced ERP Consultants can configure Abel to suit most business requirements. We understand the challenges of changing core business management software, so we have made sure Abel is highly configurable, affordable and fully supported with a comprehensive consulting and support service that ensures your Abel implementation is a success.

We make the transition to Abel easy by offering:

  • Specialist ERP business management consultants
  • Support and consulting services with your own dedicated Account Manager so that Abel is best configured for your needs
  • An affordable entry cost with two flexible licensing options that enable customers to progressively expand user numbers or adopt extra functionality
  • Maintenance upgrades that are up-front and sustainable
  • ERP software designed to be run by your staff, not by external IT support teams

Abel provides you with a faster implementation and a quicker return on investment. 

Configuration

Abel has been designed from the ground up to be highly flexible. All Abel’s functions are within one fully integrated system encompassing Customer and Supplier Management, Financials, Inventory and Distribution, Manufacturing and Production and other specialised functions. Our ERP Consultants will configure only the functionality that is relevant to your business. Abel’s architecture makes it easy for our consultants to progressively switch on new functionality as your business grows.

Our ERP Consultants will work with you to identify the right configuration of Abel’s functionality to most cost-effectively meet your business needs and will provide a full project scope and quotation for your implementation.

” As our business changes and grows, we see new opportunities and different requirements.That’s what I like about Abel’s flexibility. When we think of an area we would like to improve, the functionality is most likely there and can be easily configured to meet our unique needs. ”

Implementation Process

Abel’s implementation process ensures that your transition to Abel is efficient, effective and well managed.

Abel’s implementation process includes:

  • System Configuration
  • User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
  • Training
  • Data Migration

The same consulting team will work with you during your implementation, and for a settling-in period after go live (normally two months). We then assign one of our consultants to become your permanent Account Manager – normally one of the Abel ERP Consultants who worked on your implementation. Also, at the two-month mark, day-to-day support transfers to our Support Team. 

Growth and Change

Your Account Manager remains available for queries that involve business process changes and / or  adoption of additional Abel features. This combination of day-to-day support and forward-looking account management provides you with an ongoing partnership with a team that brings a breadth of ERP expertise and advice, understands your business and can help you make the most of your ERP investment.

The Abel ERP Consultant who becomes your Account Manager remains your first point of contact for adoption of additional Abel features.

Our ERP Consultants have a variety of skillsets so, depending on your requirements, one or more of our ERP Consultants may work with you at different times as required.
