MRPeasy is a cloud-based manufacturing resource planning system aimed at small and mid-sized manufacturers. This guide explains what it is, what it does well, how it is priced, and where it fits, written for buyers evaluating manufacturing software rather than for anyone selling it.
What MRPeasy Is#
MRPeasy is cloud MRP and light manufacturing ERP software built specifically for small manufacturers. The product targets makers in roughly the 10-to-200-employee range, the slice of the market that has outgrown spreadsheets but cannot justify the cost or complexity of a tier-one ERP rollout. Everything is delivered through a web browser as software-as-a-service, so there is no on-premise server to maintain and no client software to install.
Its origins are Estonian. MRPeasy was incorporated in Tallinn, Estonia, in 2014, founded by a team with a background in building high-performance web applications. The founding thesis was straightforward: sophisticated production-planning capability had historically been locked inside expensive enterprise systems, and cloud delivery made it possible to offer the same core discipline to much smaller manufacturers at an affordable price. The company has remained relatively small and founder-led, and it serves customers globally rather than focusing on a single region.
The category matters when you compare it. MRPeasy is not a general-purpose ERP that happens to do manufacturing, and it is not a pure inventory tool that bolts on a parts list. It is a manufacturing-first system whose centre of gravity is the MRP engine: turning demand into a plan for what to make, what to buy, and when. The features around that core exist to feed and act on the plan.
What MRPeasy Does#
Production planning and MRP are the heart of the product. The system takes customer orders and forecasts, explodes them against your bills of materials, checks stock and work-in-progress, and tells you what needs to be manufactured and procured to meet demand. This is the classic material requirements planning loop, and it is what MRPeasy was designed to do from day one. Manufacturing orders can be scheduled on a drag-and-drop Gantt-style view, rescheduled when priorities change, and tracked through to completion.
Bills of materials and routings give the plan its structure. MRPeasy supports both simple single-level BOMs and multi-level BOMs for products built from sub-assemblies, along with routings that describe the operations and workstations needed to make each item. Because the BOM and routing data drive both costing and scheduling, getting them right is the single biggest factor in how useful the system will be. Product configurators and matrix-style item variants help manufacturers who sell many versions of a similar product avoid maintaining a separate part for every combination.
Inventory and traceability run alongside production. The system tracks stock levels, reorder points, and stock movements, and supports lot and serial-number tracking for traceability. Higher tiers add barcode printing and scanning and support for multiple production sites or warehouses. For manufacturers in regulated or quality-sensitive sectors, the lot and serial traceability is often a deciding feature, because it links a finished unit back to the specific batches of raw material that went into it.
Procurement closes the loop on the buy side. When the MRP run identifies shortages, MRPeasy can drive purchase orders to suppliers, track expected receipts, and feed incoming stock back into availability. This is what separates a real MRP system from a simple stock counter: the same calculation that decides what to make also decides what to buy and when, so purchasing is demand-driven rather than guesswork.
Sales, CRM, and shop-floor reporting round out the operational picture. MRPeasy includes order management and a basic CRM for tracking customers and quotes, plus job-reporting tools so operators can record time and progress against manufacturing orders. The intent is that a small manufacturer can run quote-to-cash and plan-to-produce in one place, without stitching together several disconnected tools. Quality control and subcontracting workflows are available on higher tiers for shops that need inspection steps or outsource part of their process.
Integrations#
MRPeasy is built to connect to a separate accounting system rather than replace it. This is one of the most important things to understand about the product. It does not try to be your general ledger. Instead it integrates with dedicated accounting platforms, most notably Xero and QuickBooks Online, so that invoices, bills, and financial postings flow into the system your accountant already works in. For most small manufacturers this is a sensible division of labour: keep finance where the accountant lives, and keep production where the operations team lives.
E-commerce and sales channels are well covered. The product offers integrations with common online sales platforms such as Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, and Amazon, which matters for manufacturers who sell direct as well as wholesale. These connections let online orders flow into the same demand pipeline that drives production planning.
CRM, logistics, and automation options extend the reach further. MRPeasy connects to CRM tools such as Pipedrive, HubSpot, and Salesforce, to shipping and fulfilment services, and to general-purpose automation through Zapier. For reporting, it can feed business-intelligence tools such as Microsoft Power BI. At the top pricing tier it also exposes a REST API and webhooks, which is the route for anyone needing custom or bespoke integrations beyond the prebuilt list.
The practical takeaway is to map your stack before buying. Confirm that the specific accounting platform, sales channel, and any shipping tool you rely on are supported at the tier you intend to buy, since API and some integration features are gated to higher plans.
Pricing Model#
MRPeasy is priced per user per month, in tiers, and that model is what you should anchor on rather than any single number. There are four named tiers, generally presented as Starter, Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited, ordered from least to most capable. Each tier is inclusive of the one below it, so moving up the ladder unlocks additional features rather than swapping one bundle for another.
As an indicative guide, list rates run from roughly the high-USD-40s per user per month at the entry tier up to around USD 149 per user per month at the top tier. A common structure charges the first block of users at the full tier rate, with each additional block of users added at a flat, lower monthly rate, which softens the cost as headcount grows. These figures move over time and can vary, so treat them strictly as a range to frame your budget, and confirm the current numbers with the vendor before you commit.
What you are buying as you climb the tiers is capability, not just seats. The entry tier covers the core: production planning, BOMs, inventory, procurement, and basic traceability. Mid tiers typically add quality control, serial-number tracking, subcontracting, and customer-portal features. Higher tiers add things like barcode scanning, multiple production sites, approval workflows, and stronger security options. The top tier is largely about integration flexibility, including API and webhook access. MRPeasy also offers a free trial period with no contract, which makes it realistic to test the actual workflows before paying.
Build your estimate from headcount and required features together. Because the price is per user, the number of people who genuinely need a login is the main cost driver, followed by the tier that contains the features you cannot do without. Always validate the exact rate, the user-block mechanics, and any tax treatment directly with MRPeasy.
When to Use MRPeasy#
Reach for MRPeasy when production planning is your real problem. If your pain is multi-level BOMs, knowing what to make and buy and when, scheduling work across stations, and keeping traceability on lots and serials, this is precisely the problem the product was designed around. Small discrete manufacturers, assemblers, and made-to-order or made-to-stock shops that have outgrown spreadsheets are the natural fit.
It suits teams that want fast time-to-value. As a focused SaaS product, MRPeasy is meant to be stood up without a long, expensive implementation project. For a small manufacturer with reasonably clean BOM data, the path from trial to live operation is measured in weeks rather than the many months a large ERP can demand.
It is a good fit when you are happy to keep accounting separate. If you already run Xero or QuickBooks Online and want your finance team to stay there, MRPeasy slots in cleanly as the operations layer above your accounting system.
When to Skip It#
Skip it if you need a single system to run finance, HR, and operations together. MRPeasy deliberately does not replace your general ledger or payroll. If your goal is wall-to-wall ERP consolidation onto one platform, a broader suite will fit the brief better.
Be cautious if your processes are heavily process-manufacturing or extremely high-volume. MRPeasy is strongest for discrete and assembly manufacturing. Complex process industries with recipes, co-products, and by-products, or very large operations with deep customisation needs, may find the model constraining.
Reconsider if your true bottleneck is multi-channel inventory rather than production. If you barely build anything and mostly move stock across many sales channels, an inventory-led platform may serve you better than a production-planning-led one. Match the tool to where your complexity actually sits.
ANZ Context#
For Australian and New Zealand manufacturers, MRPeasy is accessible and relevant, with a few local considerations. Being cloud-native, it is reachable from anywhere with a browser, so there is no regional barrier to using it from the ANZ region.
The Xero integration is the standout local advantage. Xero has deep penetration across New Zealand and Australian small business, and MRPeasy connecting natively to it means the operations system can hand financial data straight to the accounting platform most local accountants already use. That alone removes a lot of friction for ANZ buyers.
Weigh the global-SaaS realities before committing. Pricing is quoted in US dollars, so currency movement and GST handling sit with your accounting system rather than the MRP tool. Support runs on global and European hours rather than local business hours, which can affect how quickly you get help during an ANZ working day. And as a globally hosted product, it makes no specific in-country data-residency commitment, which is worth checking if your sector has data-location obligations. For most small ANZ manufacturers these are manageable trade-offs rather than dealbreakers, but they belong on your evaluation checklist.
Bottom line: MRPeasy is a focused, affordable cloud MRP and light manufacturing ERP that does production planning genuinely well for small manufacturers, integrates rather than replaces accounting, and fits the ANZ market comfortably thanks to Xero, provided you go in clear-eyed about its US-dollar pricing, global support model, and confirm current pricing directly with the vendor.
