DispositionAcceptOR “NOT YET” — WE SAY WHICH
What Makes Us Different
We Specialize Where Others Generalize
Four things set us apart, and each one is a direct answer to how these projects usually go wrong.
We specialize where others generalize
The ERPNext implementation field is offshore and generic. We focus on one buyer: the first-ERP job shop.
We're on-site where it matters
For the Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana region, we're in your building. No handoff to a team you'll never meet.
We price a flat fee, not per seat
Per-seat pricing is the trap most shops are trying to escape. We don't recreate it.
We tell you the truth about fit
We recently advised a specialty manufacturer against a multi-million-dollar AI build their data was not ready to support.
Inherited Trust
Powered by Seven Hills Technology
You get proof most new brands can't offer on day one: a decade of delivery, a Midwest team you can meet, and clients who've stayed with us for years.
A decade of delivering custom software
A Midwest team you can meet in person
Clients who've stayed with us for years
The technical depth that the team was able to comprehend and the consultative nature of the interaction was impressive. They were able to provide a feasible roadmap and an "MVP" approach to move us forward without spending millions of dollars... 7 Hills stood out as the one company that was interested in understanding the problem.
