What Marg ERP is great at
Marg ERP has real depth in inventory-led trades — pharmacy and FMCG distribution especially — with batch and expiry handling, scheme pricing and a long-standing dealer network. For an inventory-heavy counter business, that depth matters.
Pick Marg ERP if…
- You run a pharmacy or distribution business that lives on batch & expiry
- You need deep inventory schemes and rate structures today
- You have desktop operators doing volume data entry
Pick Finocket if…
- You bill services or projects, not batched stock
- You run the business from a phone, offline included
- You want CRM, outreach and partner commissions with the books
- You want a read-only CA invite instead of backup files
Moving off a desktop ERP?
Run Finocket alongside your current setup — daily work on the phone, final accounts wherever your CA prefers.
Finocket vs Marg ERP — FAQ
Much better than before. Finocket now tracks batches with expiry dates, warns you about near-expiry stock, and handles multiple godowns with transfers — on top of a stock ledger, low-stock alerts and weighted-average valuation. What it doesn't do yet is pick a batch at the billing counter or run scheme pricing, which are Marg's home turf. For a high-volume pharmacy counter that bills batch-by-batch, Marg is still the specialist; for tracking batches, expiry and stock value, Finocket now holds its own.
Service businesses, consultants and small firms that run from a phone: invoices, GST and TDS, a pipeline of deals, follow-ups, and partner commissions — with a clean monthly handoff to the CA.
No. There's no automated Marg import, and you don't need one: record new work in Finocket from today, keep your ERP history where it is, and let your CA reconcile from the export.
