The best MRPeasy alternative depends on which record you need to improve. MRPeasy publishes per-user pricing, no contracts and a 15 + 15 day trial, which makes it easy to budget for lighter production planning. A focused quoting tool is smaller if the pain is only RFQ arithmetic. JobBOSS², Fulcrum and ProShop are broader alternatives when scheduling, quality, inventory or compliance need deeper shop control. Compare the handoff from quote to routing, not just the monthly subscription.

Where MRPeasy fits
MRPeasy is a sensible starting point for a small manufacturer that wants bills of material, inventory, purchasing, planning and basic production control with a visible subscription. Its pricing page says Starter is $49, Professional $69, Enterprise $99 and Unlimited $149 per user per month, with annual billing giving one month free. It also says there are no contracts or module-based pricing. The cost is easy to understand; the shop still has to verify whether its quoting, quality and routing cases fit.
Run a test with a repeat bracket, a purchased fastener, an outside anodize step and a customer revision. If the estimator can reuse the BOM and routing without a second spreadsheet, MRPeasy may be the right boundary.
| Option | Price shape | Stronger when | Migration question |
|---|---|---|---|
| MRPeasy | Starter $49, Professional $69, Enterprise $99, Unlimited $149 per user a month (Unlimited minimum 2 users); from the 11th user $79 per 10 users; annual billing gives 1 month free | A visible per-user manufacturing system is enough. | Can it model your quality, outside service and routing rules? |
| QuotedPart + existing ERP | $199/month per shop for quoting; ERP remains separate. | The immediate bottleneck is fast shop-rate quotes. | How will an accepted quote become a job? |
| JobBOSS² | Tailored quote; ECI describes roughly 3–6 months implementation. | A job-shop ERP with deeper scheduling and accounting is needed. | What historical jobs and customers migrate? |
| Fulcrum | Revenue and integration complexity shape price; unlimited users. | Cloud ERP rollout support and no per-user charge matter. | Which BOM/routing records map from MRPeasy? |
| ProShop | Customized pricing; ERP/MES/QMS scope. | Quality, traceability and shop-floor control are central. | Can the shop fund the implementation discipline? |
Move down when quoting is the real problem
If production already runs reliably in QuickBooks, spreadsheets and a planner, an ERP migration may be the wrong response to slow quotes. QuotedPart can calculate setup, material, cycle, finish and quantity breaks at the shop's rates, then export the accepted order for the system that owns production. It is weaker than MRPeasy on inventory and planning, which is precisely why it is easier to evaluate as a quoting layer.
Price the manual handoff honestly. If a planner spends four minutes copying a won quote and the shop wins 30 jobs a week, that is two hours of weekly work. The alternative may still be cheaper than replacing a working production process.
Move up when the record is failing
Choose JobBOSS², Fulcrum or ProShop when the shop cannot answer which jobs are late, which material is committed, or which inspection record belongs to the revision on the floor. JobBOSS² is stronger for an established job-shop ERP scope; Fulcrum is stronger for cloud deployment with an implementation team; ProShop is stronger when ERP, MES and QMS are one controlled boundary. Request a phased migration and a data export before signing.
MRPeasy's transparent price and trial are a strength for a small shop. The broader alternatives win only when the missing production record is worth their implementation cost.
