Why Industry-Specific ERP Solutions Outperform QuickBooks
QuickBooks is a well-known tool for small business accounting. As businesses grow, they need more than a general solution. Every industry has unique workflows, compliance needs, and customer expectations. That’s why a one-size-fits-all approach just doesn’t cut it.
Acumatica industry editions were created with this reality in mind. Built from the ground up to support real-world business processes, these solutions go far beyond basic financials to deliver specialized business software designed for your industry.
Why Choose ERP Built for Your Industry?
Modern business challenges require modern solutions, tailored to how your team actually works. Acumatica delivers exactly that through its full suite of industry-specific products:

Unlike general accounting tools, Acumatica industry editions come with the workflows, reports, and dashboards that make sense for your business model. And as your needs evolve, Acumatica scales with you.
As one customer put it:
“The first thing to say about it is that both QuickBooks and E2 were slow, and they got slower as we grew. As their databases got bigger, they just became more sluggish.”
— Scott Stilson, Manager of Information Systems, DiamondBack Truck Covers
Acumatica changes that by delivering a modern, mobile, and fully integrated platform, from CRM to operations to financials.
