The options
What people compare Epicor BisTrack with
Epicor does not publish BisTrack pricing, so it is quoted privately and priced by the features you take. Owners look for an alternative when user licences, a rollout that G2 reviewers put at six months and records held in the vendor's format feel like too much for the way their merchant runs.

How to choose a Epicor BisTrack alternative
- 1
What your bill is tied to
Epicor quotes privately and prices BisTrack by the features you take. Ask how user licences, modules and implementation affect your total bill, and what you would pay as your staff or needs change. Compare that with an option that has no per-seat plans.
- 2
Where your records stay
Your accounts, prices and history live in the vendor's format, so leaving involves extracts, column mapping and possibly a partner's help. Ask what you can export from your version and where your records will live afterwards. Enterprise DNA's option puts them in a database you own.

Fit with your working rules
A timber merchant may need trade accounts, price levels, quotes, orders, delivery runs, stock and treated timber handled in its own way. Check whether the alternative can use your fields and working rules rather than forcing you into a standard setup. Ask what changes are included and what needs extra work.

What switching involves
Find out what you can export from your BisTrack version and how the information will be mapped. Plan to check aged debtors, stock on hand for your main lines and open quotes against your current records. A side-by-side month-end can help you confirm they match before you stop entering into BisTrack.
The option that fits
A version built around your merchant
Enterprise DNA builds your own version around how your merchant works, brings your BisTrack data across and runs it for you. Your records sit in a database you own, with no per-seat plans. You pay one setup fee, then a monthly retainer. If you would rather manage it yourself, there is also a free version you can run yourself.

Questions
Epicor BisTrack alternatives, answered
How much does an Epicor BisTrack alternative cost? expand_more
Epicor does not publish BisTrack pricing. It is quoted privately and priced by the features you take, and G2 reviewers put a typical rollout at six months. Enterprise DNA charges one setup fee, then a monthly retainer. Its option has no per-seat plans.
Can an alternative replace our counter and ledger? expand_more
The owned version replaces the trade side, including accounts, quotes, orders, deliveries, stock, pricing and credit. Walk-in cash sales need a till, while the general ledger, payroll and GST returns belong in an accounting system. Many merchants use Xero or MYOB for their books, and Enterprise DNA connects it so invoices and payments flow across.
How can we bring our BisTrack records across? expand_more
What you can export depends on your BisTrack version and reports. The usual route is a customer list and product list saved from a report to Excel, or an extract from your Epicor partner. The columns use BisTrack's own names, so mapping them and testing the result are part of the switch.
How do we know the new system is ready before switching? expand_more
Run both systems side by side for a month-end. Check that the aged debtors, stock on hand for your main lines and open quotes match. When they do, you can stop entering into BisTrack. The time left on your contract can give you room to check the records before making the change.
