Your ERP is not the problem. Getting an answer out of it is.

Follow one purchase order, from the moment it lands to the moment somebody can confirm it.

With Vailent. The first pass is done before anyone opens a screen.

  • Reads the order, the pricing, the stock position and the specification from the system of record you already run, then works out what matters
  • Nothing has to be migrated for that to work, so there is no integration project in front of it
  • Writes back only where you configure them, behind an approval gate, so your team spends its time deciding, not chasing paperwork

When the answers are in, not when the replies come back

Read from the system of record you already run, on the cadence you configure.

Where your ERP ends up is your decision.

Vailent beside your ERP

The common case

Your ERP keeps the record. Vailent reads from your ERP, nothing has to be migrated to turn the lights on, and modules are adopted one at a time.

Vailent replacing one function

Function by function

Quoting, onboarding, product data, replenishment. One function moves to Vailent while every other function stays in your ERP, untouched. Nothing was migrated, so stepping back is a configuration change.

Vailent as the system of record

For companies with no ERP

Where there is no ERP, the Vailent applications hold the record, so customers, products, quotes, orders and inventory are first class rather than a cache of something else.

Ask about your system
Before you ask

Questions we get asked.

Do we have to replace our ERP?

No. The common path leaves it where it is and reads from it, and replacing a function is available when you want it.

Will this write back into our system of record?

Only where you configure it to, and an approval gate sits in front of the writes that reach your ERP.

What if we do not have an ERP?

Then you are not blocked. The applications are built to hold the record themselves.

How long before we see anything?

First connection lands in week one of a typical rollout, and modules go live one at a time.

Bring us the system you already have.

Or the one you are trying to get rid of. Both conversations start with the same order, and the same question about where its answers live.
