Five main difference between Tally & ERP?

Answer Posted / iam zar

Having been an SAP consultant many years ago, I find it insane that all you people are comparing Tally with a real life ERP system. Let's face, just because you integrate a few functions into a software package, an ERP system it does not become. Tally is simply an accounting package and that too using a very archaic DOS like GUI, meant to be used primarily by the bookkeepers and accountants of an organization. Unlike a real ERP system that cascades across the entire processes of an organization, Tally is purely finance oriented for the most part. Some of you may argue that it can tailored, etc., etc. for other functionality. But really, who the hell wants to, given it's archaic interface.

Frankly, if any of the other major accounting packages in its class, like Peachtree were customised for India, Tally would go the way of the dodo. Compared to Peachtree or similar windows GUI systems with result oriented dashboards, etc, Tally is overpriced for what you get. People make a big deal out of the fact that Tally is pre-set to use Indian tax forms, etc. Again, if a package like Peachtree had the same capability, it would leave Tally in the dust. Frankly, it's time that companies like Sage brought their Peachtree package in full force to India to spur the folks at Tally to do a better job.
