FerroSync vs MRPeasy
MRPeasy is solid, self-serve MRP for small manufacturers. FerroSync puts the general ledger in the same database as your BOMs, so the shop floor and the financial statements can never drift apart.
| FerroSync | MRPeasy | |
|---|---|---|
| Accounting | Built in: double-entry GL, statements, periods, year-end close, bank rec | Built-in Standard Accounting (CoA, GL, P&L/BS) — they still sell QBO/Xero as the books |
| Production & MRP | BOMs, production orders with costing, work centers, MRP → draft POs | Mature MRP: routings, capacity planning, Gantt scheduling |
| Traceability | Lots + expiry with FEFO picking, serial numbers, ledger-posted cycle counts | Lot and serial tracking on Professional tier and up |
| Procurement | POs with approval thresholds, partial receiving, 3-way match, landed costs | POs and vendor management; matching workflow is lighter |
| Banking & AR/AP | Bank reconciliation with auto-match, AR/AP aging, credit limits, statements | They post AR/AP in Standard Accounting; the accountant's books still go to QBO/Xero |
| Interface | Modern React app — fast, keyboard-friendly, no training course needed | Functional but dated; steeper learning curve is a common complaint |
| Deployment | Your own isolated instance and database | Shared multi-tenant SaaS |
| Pricing | $500/mo + $50/user — every feature included, no tier ladders | Per-user tiers (from ~$49/user/mo); key features gated behind higher tiers |
| Free trial / demo | Instant live demo with sample data, no card | Free trial available |

Why manufacturers pick FerroSync
When MRPeasy is the right choice
Pick MRPeasy if detailed routing, capacity planning, and Gantt-style production scheduling are the center of your operation — its planning engine is deeper than ours today. Pick FerroSync if the pain you feel is the gap between the shop floor and the books: costing that doesn’t match the GL, month-end reconciliation, and two subscriptions doing one job. If the other product on the table is a manufacturing layer that deliberately leaves the books in QuickBooks or Xero, see FerroSync vs Katana.
