  • The ERP line is split across three separately scaled products (Optima for SMBs, XL, Enterprise) with no published criteria distinguishing which a given company should quote

Metasfresh

  • The mandatory starter package covering setup, customisation, project management and training is priced individually on request
  • Standard support is email only during business hours; a 24/7 SLA is a separate contract on request
  • All published prices exclude VAT
  • Projects larger than the L size starter package require an individual quote
