Sound Familiar?

The Hidden Cost of
Running Blind

Finance lives in multiple spreadsheets

No single source of truth. Month-end reconciliation takes days, and you're never sure the numbers are right.

Stock discrepancies cost you money daily

You order too much, run out at the wrong time, or lose inventory to theft you can't even trace.

HR and payroll is a monthly nightmare

Managing leave, calculating salaries, and staying compliant takes hours every cycle — and errors are embarrassing.

No visibility into what's actually happening

Making decisions based on gut feeling instead of data. You can't report to investors or banks with confidence.

"We were losing about 15% of our inventory every quarter and didn't even know where it was going. Within three months of going live on the Ongadi ERP, we had full visibility and the losses stopped."

STEP 02

Configuration & Build

We configure the system to match your workflows, migrate your existing data cleanly, and build any custom modules your business specifically needs.

Common Questions

Things People Usually Ask Us

We've answered hundreds of businesses just like yours. If you don't find your question here, we're happy to have a conversation.

Ask Us Directly
How long does implementation take?
Most implementations take 4–8 weeks depending on the size of your business and number of users. Small businesses with straightforward requirements can go live in as little as 3 weeks. We set a realistic timeline during discovery and commit to it.
Can you migrate our existing data from Excel or QuickBooks?
Yes. Data migration is included in all implementations. We've migrated businesses from Excel, QuickBooks, Sage, Tally, and even custom Access databases. We clean, validate, and import your data — and you sign off before we go live.
What happens if something breaks or we need help?
All plans include ongoing support. Our team is reachable via phone, WhatsApp, and email during business hours, with emergency support for critical issues outside hours. We typically resolve issues within 4 hours for critical problems and 24 hours for non-critical ones.
Do you support mobile money and local payment methods?
Yes. Our ERP natively integrates with M-Pesa, Airtel Money, MTN MoMo, and major African banking APIs for automated payment reconciliation. We also support local tax authority integrations for KRA, SARS, FIRS, and others.
How is pricing structured?
Pricing is based on the number of modules, users, and deployment type. We offer monthly SaaS subscriptions and one-time on-premise licences. We'll give you a detailed quote after the discovery call — no surprises, no hidden fees.
