Frequently Asked Questions.
What is a bolt-on system?
A bolt-on system is an add-on application that gives your current system a capability it lacks, while your main system stays in place.
When is a bolt-on better than replacing the platform?
A bolt-on is better than replacing the platform when your current system meets most requirements and only specific capabilities are missing. If it falls short in many areas, we advise replacement.
Will a bolt-on break when our ERP is upgraded?
A correctly built bolt-on will not break when your ERP is upgraded, because it connects only through the official interfaces your ERP provides.
Does our data end up in two places?
No, your data does not end up in two places: your main system remains the single system of record. The add-on holds only the data it needs, synchronised automatically.
Can a bolt-on system be removed later?
Yes, a bolt-on system can be removed later without affecting your main system.
