Excellent ERP review
A configurable manufacturing ERP with recipe control, batch tracking, quality tests and MRP.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Excellent ERP is a manufacturing-focused ERP for discrete and process manufacturers, including chemical and pesticide producers. Its configurable modules are presented for companies across small, mid-market and enterprise sizes. Process manufacturers looking to connect formulations, production planning and shop-floor activity are its clearest audience; businesses seeking only a standalone recipe or inventory tool may find its wider manufacturing scope unnecessary.
Recipe and formulation management includes version control, while production planning and MRP are driven by formulations and demand. Batch costing and actual-versus-standard yield tracking add visibility into production economics. The system also handles conversions across purchasing, production, stock and dispatch, and tracks batch manufacturing and expiry dates with FEFO handling. Quality capabilities cover in-process and finished-stage tests, quarantine and conditional release. Together with statutory records, controlled-chemical tracking, shop-floor control, inventory management and equipment maintenance, this points to a broad operational fit for process firms rather than a narrow planning product.
Excellent Softwares directs prospective customers to request a demo and a quote tailored to headcount and modules, so buyers will need a sales conversation to understand the commercial fit. Support is offered by email and phone. That approach suits organizations assessing a configurable system across multiple manufacturing functions, but is less convenient for teams that need to compare published plan prices before engaging. Consider Excellent ERP when recipe governance, batch traceability, yields, quality and MRP need to sit within manufacturing operations; firms that want a narrowly scoped tool or need costs upfront should compare alternatives.
Excellent ERP pros and cons

- FEFO, quality tests, quarantine and conditional release support batch handling.
- Where it doesn't
