WBSP756: Grow Your Business by Learning the Top 10 Discrete Manufacturing ERP Systems in 2025 w/ Sam Gupta
Selecting an ERP system for discrete manufacturing can be complex due to frequent overlaps with other production modes like Make-to-Order, Make-to-Stock, or Engineer-to-Order. Many manufacturers operate hybrid models—for example, a machine builder that also manages chemical adhesives—where discrete processes dominate but some process-oriented functions are necessary. This list highlights ERP solutions that excel primarily in discrete manufacturing, even if they offer limited process capabilities. Understanding the precise structure of your operations is essential to determine whether you need comprehensive process support or just enough to complement your core discrete workflows effectively.
In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 discrete manufacturing ERP systems in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these discrete manufacturing ERP systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each discrete manufacturing ERP system.
