FRF: Why Your ERP Vendor Should Be Your Business Wingman

Because going it alone is so last quarter.

We’ve all been there. You're in the thick of it—operations humming (or not), deadlines looming, and your team is juggling traceability, labor, inventory, taxes, and maybe a surprise audit for good measure. You don’t need an ERP vendor that just sends you a software manual and a 1-800 number.
You need a wingman.
🧑🤝🧑 So What Does a Good ERP Wingman Look Like?
They don’t just sell you software. They stand by you when things get real. They know your workflows. Your pain points. Your priorities. They don’t ghost you after go-live. They pick up the phone. They get your industry. They’re invested in your success like it’s their own.
Basically: They show up.
🤝 SYSPRO = Human ERP
SYSPRO is built for manufacturers and distributors, but more importantly, SYSPRO is built on relationships. Their partner and customer service model is deeply consultative. When you work with SYSPRO (especially through a partner like us at MepApps), you don’t get a helpdesk in a faraway time zone—you get real people, who listen, learn your business, and help you level up.
And when things go sideways (because let’s be honest, sometimes they do), they don’t vanish into a black hole of support tickets—they walk through it with you. They make sure your ERP isn’t just up and running—it’s driving real value.
💡 Wingmen Do More Than Fix Problems
The best ERP partners don’t just show up when something breaks.
They help you:
Spot inefficiencies before they become issues
Adapt to changing markets and compliance
Align your tech with your business goals
Empower your teams with the right insights, not just data dumps
🛠️ TL;DR: Choose a Partner, Not a Platform
ERP is complex. It touches everything. You shouldn’t have to navigate it alone.
With SYSPRO—and partners like MepApps—you’re not buying a product.
You’re gaining a business wingman.
And in manufacturing? That can be the difference between barely surviving and scaling with swagger.
