The panel's verdict
SelectLine neo is an ERP for small and mid-sized companies in Germany and Austria. The bench scored it strongest on finance and compliance: bookings are protected and corrected only via automatic cancellation postings referencing the original, changes to GoBD-relevant data are logged, auditors get Z1 to Z3 access plus an IDEA interface, e-invoices run as XRechnung and ZUGFeRD, and DATEV runs both ways. Production and projects also scored 7-8, on the Factory package's bills of materials, work plans, capacity planning and shop-floor data capture. The weak spots are sovereignty, where the vendor states all data is encrypted on German servers and DSGVO-conform but the certifications section names no certification and we found no public information on subprocessors or a data processing agreement; orders and inventory, where we found no public information on storage bins, batch or serial numbers, or reorder points; and integration and portability, the widest spread, with the API behind Premium and no public API reference. Pricing transparency sits at 6, and the flagged splits flagged no splits.
Speaks for it
- Bookings are protected from change and corrected only by automatic cancellation postings that reference the original.
- Auditors get data access via Z1, Z2 and Z3, with a filterable GoBD export and an IDEA interface.
- The DATEV handover runs in both directions — file and online service — with a lock flag and read-back of the accountant's file.
- The Factory package documents bills of materials, work plans, capacity planning, shop-floor data capture and production cost calculation.
- All five packages and the main add-ons carry public monthly prices excluding VAT, with updates included and a 30-day full-function trial.
Held against it
- We found no public information on subprocessors, hosting infrastructure or a data processing agreement, and the certifications section names no certification.
- An API is offered from the Premium tier, but we found no public API reference, webhooks or sandbox.
- We found no public information on storage bins, batch or serial numbers, reorder points, or whether goods receipt posts stock.
- We found no public information on OSS or reverse-charge VAT, or on dunning.
- The captured pages state neither the per-user scaling behind the edition prices, nor implementation fees or data-return terms at cancellation.
Best for
- You run a German-speaking SME and need GoBD-aligned bookkeeping with Z1 to Z3 auditor access and a two-way DATEV handover to your tax adviser.
- You are a small manufacturer that wants bills of materials, work plans and capacity planning in the same package as your accounting.
- You sell through Shopify, Shopware, Amazon or eBay and want priced connectors on a subscription that does not scale with order volume.
- You prefer partner-led rollout through more than 200 certified Fachhandelspartner, starting from a 30-day full-function trial.
Avoid if
- You need the sovereignty chain proven before signing: we found no public information on subprocessors, hosting infrastructure or a data processing agreement, and sovereignty scored 4-5.
- Your integration roadmap depends on a public, versioned API reference, webhooks or a sandbox; the API sits behind the Premium tier and integration and portability scored 4-6.
- Your warehouse control relies on bins, batch or serial tracking, or reorder points; orders and inventory scored 5-6 and we found no public information on these.
- You must compute a first-year cost for a fixed headcount — the captured pages state neither the per-user scaling rule behind the edition prices nor implementation fees or data-return terms at cancellation.

Finance, tax & compliance
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether the ERP keeps books a tax adviser and an auditor accept: general and subledgers, VAT per country, GoBD-compliant posting and archiving, e-invoices sent and received (XRechnung, ZUGFeRD), payments and dunning, and a DATEV export or a documented hand-over to the accountant.
0 — No accounting at all; invoices leave as PDFs and the books are kept somewhere else by hand.
3 — Invoices and credit notes are created in the system, but there is no ledger, no stated GoBD compliance and no export the accountant can import.
5 — Invoices, open items and payments in the system with a DATEV or accounting export, VAT rates per item, dunning, and e-invoices in XRechnung or ZUGFeRD format sent to customers.
8 — Full financial accounting or a live-synchronised one: general, receivables and payables ledgers, incoming e-invoices read and matched to purchase orders, bank feeds with payment matching, OSS and reverse-charge VAT, GoBD compliance stated with a procedure documentation, and several companies in one tenant.
10 — The money side closes inside the system: an auditor's GoBD or IDW PS 880 attestation published, consolidation and intercompany postings across entities, fixed assets and cost accounting, every posting traceable to the order, goods movement and user behind it, and period close with locked periods documented.
The Managing Director
This is a real accounting product, not an invoicing tool: postings are protected and corrected only by automatic reversal referencing the original, changes to GoBD-relevant data are logged per user and date, auditors get read-only roles with Z1/Z2/Z3 access and a filterable GoBD export, e-invoices go out and come in as XRechnung and ZUGFeRD in several versions, and the DATEV hand-over works both ways with a lock flag. The procedure documentation is explicitly left to the company, and we found no public information on OSS or reverse-charge handling, dunning, or an auditor attestation, so it sits below the top band. 2 6 7 12
The Head of Finance
GoBD bookkeeping is stated with a vendor guidance document, changes to bookings, master data, tax keys and period closes are logged with user and date, corrections run through cancellation bookings referencing the original, and the auditor gets Z1 to Z3 access plus a filterable GoBD export and an IDEA interface. E-invoices go out and come in as ZUGFeRD and XRechnung, incoming ones are read automatically into the booking mask, bank statements are booked automatically via predefined modes, DATEV runs by file or online service with a lock flag and read-back of the accountant's file, and client management is unlimited. No auditor attestation is published, and we found no public information on fixed assets, cost accounting or OSS and reverse-charge VAT. 2 6 7 14
The Operations Lead
Bookings are immutable and corrected only by automatic reversal referencing the original, a logging function covers changes to bookings, master data, tax keys and period closes, and the auditor gets a GoBD export with Z1/Z2/Z3 access and an IDEA interface. E-invoices are created and received as XRechnung and ZUGFeRD 2.0/2.1 with automatic readout into the booking mask, bank statements post automatically, unlimited Mandanten run in one installation, and the DATEV handover works in both directions with a lock flag. We found no public information on OSS or reverse-charge VAT or an auditor's attestation, and the vendor supplies guidance while creating the procedure documentation remains with the company. 6 7
The Online Retailer
The compliance pages are unusually concrete: bookings are protected and corrected only by automatic storno, changes to GoBD-relevant data are logged, auditors get data access via Z1, Z2 and Z3 plus an IDEA interface, e-invoices go out and come in as XRechnung and ZUGFeRD, electronic bank statements are booked automatically, and the DATEV round-trip even re-imports my tax adviser's bookings — with unlimited multi-company management in the base tier. We found no public information on OSS or reverse-charge VAT, which is exactly the part I fear when selling across EU borders. 2 6 7 12
The IT Integrator
The finance side is genuinely documented: booked entries are protected from change with corrections via automatic reversal referencing the original, a Protokollierung function logs changes to GoBD-relevant data with user and timestamp, and auditor access via all three data-access routes is supported with a filterable GoBD export and an IDEA interface. E-invoices are created and received in ZUGFeRD and XRechnung formats, electronic bank statements are booked automatically via predefined booking modes, and the DATEV hand-over runs as file or online service with a lock flag — but we found no public information on OSS or reverse-charge VAT, on purchase-order matching for incoming invoices, or on an auditor attestation. 6 7 2
The Skeptic
The books look defensible: fixed bookings are protected, corrections run as automatic cancellation postings referencing the original, changes to GoBD-relevant data are logged, and the auditor gets Z1 to Z3 access plus an IDEA-ready export — with DATEV working both directions as file and online service. But the certifications section names no certification, the procedure documentation itself remains the company's job, and we found no public information on dunning or OSS and reverse-charge VAT. 6 7 12
Purchasing, inventory & order processing
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The goods chain from supplier to customer: quotes, orders and order confirmations, purchasing and goods receipt, stock per warehouse and bin, batch and serial numbers, picking and shipping, returns — and whether each step posts through to the next document and to the ledger instead of being retyped.
0 — No order or stock handling; the product is a contact list or an invoicing tool.
3 — Items with a stock count and an order list, but purchasing, goods receipt and delivery are not connected and stock is corrected by hand.
5 — Quote, order, delivery note and invoice as one document chain, purchase orders with goods receipt booking stock, and stock levels with reorder points per item.
8 — Several warehouses and storage bins, batch and serial number tracking, mobile picking and scanning, carrier and shop or marketplace connections, returns with restocking and credit note, drop shipping, and stock valuation that flows into the books.
10 — The goods chain runs and is evidenced in the system: demand-driven purchasing proposals, EDI with suppliers and customers, fulfilment and multi-channel stock allocation, best-before and recall traceability per batch from supplier to customer, and every movement attributed and dated.
The Managing Director
The Warenwirtschaft has a documented quote-to-invoice document flow, mobile data capture for warehouse and stocktaking, returns management in Premium, and priced connectors to Shopify, Shopware, Amazon and eBay plus a shipping add-on with carriers, customs papers and tracking — which covers my shop and shipping pain directly. We found no public information on purchase orders with goods receipt booking stock, reorder points, batch and serial numbers, or bin-level multi-warehouse management, which keeps it in the middle band. 2 3 8 9
The Head of Finance
The Warenwirtschaft is the core with a described standard document flow, stock and order tracking, mobile data capture for warehouse and inventory, returns management in the Premium tier, and shipping-provider and Shopify, Amazon and eBay connections as priced add-ons. We found no public information on batch or serial number tracking, storage bins, drop shipping or stock valuation flowing into the books, so I cannot place it higher. 2 3 8 9
The Operations Lead
The Warenwirtschaft offers a standard document flow with stock levels and traceable order and goods movements, mobile data capture for warehouse and stocktaking in the Basic edition, and RMA returns management in Premium. Shipping and shop connections are named and priced, including carriers with customs documents and tracking plus Shopify, Shopware, Amazon and eBay. We found no public information on storage bins, multiple warehouses, batch or serial numbers, reorder points or demand-driven purchase proposals. 2 3 8 9
The Online Retailer
Orders and stock sit in one Warenwirtschaft with a standard document flow, mobile data collection for warehouse and inventory, returns management in the Premium tier, and a shipping add-on with carriers, customs documents and tracking; the shop connections name Shopware, Shopify, Amazon and eBay, which is my exact channel mix. We found no public information on batch or serial tracking, several warehouses or bins, reorder points or purchase orders with goods receipt, so I cannot judge how overselling of a bestseller would be prevented. 2 3 8 9
The IT Integrator
A central Warenwirtschaft with a standard document chain, stock and order overview, mobile data capture for warehouse and inventory, returns management in the Premium variant, plus shipping-provider and Shopify, Shopware, Amazon and eBay connectors covers the goods chain from order to shipping. We found no public information on purchase orders with goods receipt posting stock, reorder points, batch or serial number tracking, storage bins or stock valuation flowing into the books. 2 3 8 9
The Skeptic
The Warenwirtschaft shows a documented document flow, central stock, mobile data capture for warehouse and inventory, returns handling in Premium, and shipping and marketplace links as separately priced add-ons — enough for a working chain. We found no public information on storage bins, batch or serial numbers, reorder points, or whether goods receipt booking posts stock, and the document-flow evidence is a 2015 video page. 2 8 9 3
Manufacturing, services & projects
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The depth for the buyer's own business model: bills of materials, work orders and capacity planning for manufacturers; projects, time, resources and milestone billing for service firms; contracts, subscriptions and field service. A product is judged on the models it says it serves.
0 — Nothing beyond trading goods; no bills of materials, projects or service billing.
3 — A simple kit or set of items, or a project tag on invoices, but no production orders, no time recording and no planning.
5 — For at least one model a working core: bills of materials with production orders consuming stock, or projects with time recording and billing from logged hours, with the supported models named on the vendor's pages.
8 — Multi-level bills of materials with routings, work centres and capacity planning, or projects with budgets, resource planning, milestone and recurring billing, and service or maintenance contracts — with costs flowing to cost accounting.
10 — Industry depth documented for the models served: MRP runs with material and capacity planning, shop-floor data capture and quality checks, variant configuration, or full professional-services automation with utilisation, contracts and revenue recognition — each described with its limits in public documentation.
The Managing Director
The Factory package plans manufacturing processes, material requirements and capacities, with parts lists in the article master, work plans, a production monitor, shop-floor data capture, simulation mode and production cost calculation; the add-on side serves service firms with tickets under SLA control, maintenance contract management, resource planning and times billed straight to customer orders. We found no public information on multi-level parts lists, quality checks, project budgets or costs flowing into cost accounting, so it does not reach the top band. 10 11
The Head of Finance
For manufacturing the Factory package documents bills of materials in the article master, work plans, material requirements and capacity planning, machine data capture, a production monitor, simulation and production cost calculation; for service firms the time and service add-ons document tamper-proof time capture, ticket and SLA management with escalation, maintenance contracts, resource planning and times billed against customer orders. Multi-level bills of materials with work centres and a flow of costs into cost accounting are not documented, nor are project budgets or milestone billing, which keeps it below the top level. 10 11
The Operations Lead
The Factory package plans production processes, material requirements and capacities in one system, with production lists in the article master, work plans, shop-floor data capture, a production monitor, drag-and-drop scheduling, simulation mode and production cost calculation. Services are equally served with tamper-proof time capture per the BAG ruling and a service module offering SLA ticketing, maintenance contract management, resource planning, and project times linked to customer orders and billed. We found no public information on multi-level bills of materials, work centres, quality checks or variant configuration. 10 11
The Online Retailer
Not my trade, but the production package documents Fertigungslisten, work plans, capacity planning, machine data capture, a production monitor, a simulation mode and production cost calculation for small manufacturers, and the service add-on adds ticketing with SLA control, maintenance contracts, resource planning and times billed directly onto customer orders. That is real depth for both business models the vendor names. 10 11
The IT Integrator
For manufacturers like us the captured pages show production lists in the article master, work plans, material requirements and capacity planning, shop-floor data capture, a production monitor, simulation mode and production cost calculation; for service firms there is a ticket system with SLA control and escalation, maintenance contract management, resource planning and times recorded against customer orders and invoiced. Multi-level bills of materials, project budgets, milestone billing and quality checks are not evidenced in the pages I read. 10 11
The Skeptic
For its two named models the core is real: production planning with bills of materials in the article master, work plans, capacity planning, shop-floor data capture, a production monitor and a simulation mode; the service side offers ticket-based time linked to customer orders and billed, resource planning, SLA escalation and maintenance contracts. We found no public information on multi-level bills of materials, project budgets, or milestone and recurring billing. 10 11
Integration, API & data portability
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How the ERP connects and how the data gets in and out: a public API reference, webhooks, standard connectors for shops, marketplaces, banks, payroll, DATEV and BI, data import from the previous system, and a documented full export when the company leaves.
0 — No API, no import and no export beyond printing.
3 — CSV import and export of some lists, a few named integrations, but no public API documentation and no full export.
5 — A documented REST or OData API, CSV or Excel import for master data and open items, and standard connectors to common shops, banks and DATEV.
8 — A public, versioned API reference covering all main objects with webhooks, a connector marketplace, a documented migration path from named predecessor systems, and a full data export of master data, documents and postings available to the customer.
10 — Open by design and evidenced: complete API coverage with sandbox tenants and rate limits stated, open data formats or open-source code, a contractual exit with export format and timeline, and self-hosting or on-premise as a documented alternative to the vendor's cloud.
The Managing Director
An API is named (in the Premium tier) and the DATEV exchange is documented in genuine depth — file and online transfer, account data and receipts with document GUIDs, import of the accountant's file — alongside shop and marketplace connectors, archive systems and LDAP sync. We found no public API reference with coverage and versioning, no webhooks, no documented migration path from predecessor systems and no stated full export when a customer leaves, which caps this at the mid band. 2 3 6 11 12
The Head of Finance
An API is named with direct integration claimed, it is included from the Premium tier, the vendor references its own interface documentation, and connectors exist to Shopify, Shopware, Amazon and eBay, shipping providers, several archive systems and DATEV by file or online service, with the accountant's file read back. We found no public information on a public API reference covering the main objects, webhooks, or a documented full export of master data, documents and postings when a company leaves. 2 3 6 10 11
The Operations Lead
A SelectLine API is named for the Premium edition, and the DATEV handover is documented down to CSV and XML formats, the online Datenservice, document linking by GUID and a non-repeatable export with a lock flag; connectors exist for Shopify, Shopware, shipping providers and several archive systems, with LDAP user synchronisation and automatic bank statement posting. We found no public information on a public API reference, webhooks, a migration path from named predecessor systems, or a documented full export when a company leaves. 2 3 6 7 11
The Online Retailer
An API is genuinely there — offered for third-party integration and included from the Premium tier, with direct API coupling for the time and service add-ons — and shop, shipping and DATEV connectors, including online transfer to the DATEV data centre, are documented. We found no public information on an API reference with object coverage and rate limits, webhooks, or a full data export if I ever take my business elsewhere. 2 3 7 10 12
The IT Integrator
An API is offered (the API interface sits in the Premium variant) together with named connectors to Shopify, Shopware, Amazon, eBay, shipping providers, DATEV, LDAP and several archive systems, and electronic bank statements are imported automatically. What I need before connecting a shop floor is missing from the pages: no public versioned API reference, no webhooks, no sandbox, and no documented full export when the company leaves — the DATEV datenservice export is even stated to be non-repeatable. 2 3 10 11 12
The Skeptic
An API is claimed on product pages and sits behind the Premium tier, but we found no public API reference; what is documented in depth is the DATEV link — file and online service, both directions, with a lock flag — plus Shopify, Shopware, Amazon and eBay connectors, shipping providers, several archive systems and LDAP. We found no public information on webhooks or a documented full export of master data and documents when a customer leaves. 2 3 7 10 12
Rollout, roles & operations
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
What it takes to go live and run the system: implementation path (self-service, vendor, partner network), onboarding and training, roles and permissions, audit log, updates and customisation that survive them, support channels and service levels, and availability.
0 — No information on implementation, roles, support or availability.
3 — A contact form and a help page, but no stated implementation path, no role model and no support terms.
5 — A described onboarding or implementation offer, user roles with permissions, a help centre with current documentation, and support channels with hours.
8 — Implementation methods with typical duration stated, a certified partner network or vendor services listed, fine-grained permissions with a change log, customisation without code that survives updates, and published service levels for support and availability.
10 — Operations are evidenced: a status page with uptime history, release notes and an update policy, a field-level audit trail, sandbox or test tenants, and support, training and implementation terms public enough to plan a go-live without a sales call.
The Managing Director
For going live without stopping the business, the picture is reassuring: over 200 certified resellers nationwide support more than 40,000 users, implementation is partner-led, there is an academy with training and webinars, a 30-day full-function trial, granular role permissions with audit logging, LDAP sync and automatic backups, with updates included in the subscription. We found no published typical implementation duration, support hours or service levels for support and availability, which is exactly what I would want in the contract before signing. 1 3 6 10 11
The Head of Finance
Over 200 certified specialist partners nationwide deliver setup, customisation and technical support, there is an academy with training, webinars and on-demand learning, a setup wizard, granular role-based permissions with a protocol function and edited-by and edited-at fields on every relevant record, LDAP user sync, manual or scheduled backups, and updates included in the subscription. We found no public information on implementation durations, published service levels for support and availability, a status page, or whether customisations survive updates. 1 2 6 10 11
The Operations Lead
Over 200 certified Fachhandelspartner support more than 40,000 users nationwide from setup through support, an academy offers training, webinars and on-demand learning, updates are included, and a 30-day full-function trial plus a setup assistant exist. Permissions are granular per user and role with predefined system roles, and the change trail is real: logging of GoBD-relevant changes, edited-by and edited-at fields, and a per-document archive overview noting source, type, filename, date and user. We found no public information on typical implementation duration, published service levels or availability. 1 6 7 10 11

Go-live runs through over 200 certified Fachhandelspartner who support 40,000 users from setup through customisation to support, an academy covers individual training, webinars and on-demand learning, and the server provides central user administration with granular role permissions, an audit log on GoBD-relevant changes and scheduled backups.

How this is scored
Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where the ERP data — customers, suppliers, prices, postings, employees — is hosted, and who the subprocessors are (cloud infrastructure, email, support tooling, AI features). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; an ERP holds a company's entire commercial record, so the ownership chain counts, not only the server location.
0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.
3 — A privacy policy exists, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the processors behind the service are not named.
5 — EU hosting stated and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain (US hyperscaler, AI features, support or email tooling) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.
8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with locations, a data processing agreement offered, and an on-premise or EU-only hosting option stated.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, data export and deletion documented, and a certification such as ISO 27001 or BSI C5 published rather than implied.
The Managing Director
The contracting entity is SelectLine Software GmbH in Magdeburg, part of the SelectLine Group, positioned as made in Germany, with encrypted data on German servers and DSGVO conformity stated for the time-capture add-ons. We found no public information on where the ERP itself is hosted, the infrastructure behind it, subprocessors with locations, a data processing agreement or a named certification — the certifications section on the privacy page names none — so the chain beyond the vendor's own entity stays unproven. 1 5 8 11
The Head of Finance
The contracting entity is SelectLine Software GmbH in Magdeburg, part of the SelectLine Group, a privacy policy is published, the time-capture pages claim all data encrypted on German servers, and the time-capture add-on claims ITSG certification while the general certifications section names none. We found no public information on the named hosting infrastructure, the subprocessors behind the service, a data processing agreement, or an on-premise or EU-only hosting option, so the chain beyond the German entity is not evidenced. 5 6 8 11
The Operations Lead
SelectLine Software GmbH of Magdeburg, part of the SelectLine Group, is the named contracting entity with a German imprint and privacy policy, and the captured pages state all data encrypted on German servers with GDPR conformity and ITSG certification for the time-capture products. We found no public information on the ownership chain beyond the group, the named hosting infrastructure, subprocessors with locations, or a data processing agreement, so only parts of the chain are proven. 1 5 8 10 11

I would be contracting with SelectLine Software GmbH in Magdeburg, part of the SelectLine Group, with the statement "Alle Daten verschlüsselt auf deutschen Servern" and a DSGVO conformity claim. For the rest of the chain we found no public information on subprocessors, a data processing agreement or a named certification — the privacy page's certifications section exists but names no specific certificate. 1 8 10 11
The IT Integrator
The contracting entity is SelectLine Software GmbH in Magdeburg, part of the SelectLine Group, the software is made in Germany, and the vendor states all data is encrypted on German servers and DSGVO-conform.

Pricing transparency
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether a company can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per user, module, company or transaction volume, which modules (accounting, warehouse, production, POS) cost extra, implementation and onboarding fees, minimum term, and what happens to the data on cancellation.
0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call or a partner proposal.
3 — A starting price or "from" figure exists, but what is included and how it scales with users, modules or companies is unclear.
5 — Prices per edition or module are public with the main inclusions, but at least one commonly needed piece (implementation, extra companies, warehouse or production module, API use) is unpriced or "on request".
8 — Every edition and module priced publicly with its scaling rule (per user, company or volume), onboarding and implementation packages priced, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.
10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given company size and module set, with every add-on, implementation, support and hosting cost and the cancellation and data-return terms published.
The Managing Director
All main editions are public — "SelectLine neo ERP Basic 59,00 € exkl. MwSt. pro Monat" through Factory at 129,00 € — with priced add-ons such as the DMS at "29,00 € zzgl. MwSt. pro Monat/User" and Shopify "ab 209,00 € zzgl. MwSt. pro Monat", plus a stated 10 % annual discount, VAT treatment, included updates, upgrades anytime and no long-term commitment. But the captured pages do not state the per-user scaling rule behind the edition prices, and implementation is delivered by partners without any public fee, so I cannot yet compute the true first-year cost for sixty people. 2 3 12
The Head of Finance
All editions are priced monthly excluding VAT — ERP Basic at 59,00 €, ERP Premium at 99,00 €, ERP Factory at 129,00 €, Finance Basic at 59,00 € and Finance Premium at 99,00 € — with add-ons priced (document management at 29,00 € per user and month, Shopify ab 209,00 €, Shopware at 129,00 €, shipping ab 47,20 €), a 10 % discount for annual billing, flexible seats, updates included and no long-term commitment. Implementation and onboarding carry no public price, the captured pages do not state how the edition prices scale with users, and nothing on data return at cancellation is published. 2 3 10

Prices are public down to the add-ons: neo ERP Basic 59,00 €, Premium 99,00 €, Factory 129,00 €, Finance Basic 59,00 € and Premium 99,00 € exkl. MwSt. pro Monat, DMS at 29,00 € zzgl. MwSt. per user, shipping ab 47,20 € zzgl. MwSt., Shopware at 129,00 € zzgl. MwSt. and Shopify ab 209,00 € zzgl. MwSt. per month, with a 10 % annual discount, updates included, upgrades anytime and a 30-day free trial — a subscription that does not scale with order volume, which suits me. What stays unclear is whether the base prices are per workplace or per system, and we found no public price for implementation through the partner network. 2 3 12
The IT Integrator
Five packages are publicly priced (SelectLine neo ERP Basic at 59,00 € exkl. MwSt. pro Monat, Factory at 129,00 € exkl. MwSt. pro Monat) along with add-ons such as DMS at 29,00 € zzgl. MwSt. pro Monat/User, a 10 % annual billing discount, flexibly bookable seats without long-term commitment, updates included and a 30-day full-feature trial. Implementation and onboarding costs are not published, the per-seat scaling of the package prices is not explicit in the quoted figures, and what happens to the data on cancellation is unstated. 3 2 1 10
The Skeptic
Licence costs are largely computable: both tiers of the ERP and finance packages and the production package carry monthly prices excluding VAT, add-ons from DMS to shipping to Shopify are individually priced, seats flex up and down, updates are included, and there is no long-term commitment. But we found no public information on implementation and onboarding fees, the main package prices do not state the per-user scaling rule, and cancellation and data-return terms are not on the captured pages. 1 2 3
