Guides to choosing and building operations systems

Insights are plain guides from Bizonix for Muslim-led organisations deciding what to build, what to buy and what to leave alone. Each one is written by our founder, draws on systems we have built, and says when a standard tool is the better choice. Comparisons come with a table you can scan.

Each guide answers a question worth settling before a build: what to choose and what is worth automating. We answer them from our own work, and if a standard tool fits, we say so.

  • Custom ERP, Odoo or ERPNext: which should your organisation choose?

    Choose Odoo or ERPNext when your processes are standard, such as accounting, inventory, HR and sales, and you have someone to configure and maintain them. Choose a custom ERP when your core workflow is one they don't model, like pilgrim groups, visa batches and sub-agent ledgers, or when you'd customise so heavily that upgrades break.
