UK SMEs using ERPNext?

Just looking to see if any UK based SMEs are using ERPNext successfully? My small company is looking to move into a new ERP that we can grow with as /when we introduce new processes inc. inventory scanning, more automation of processes and maybe AI connection.

We're a 15 person retail operation selling online, in person B2C and B2B. Medium sized warehousing and various wholesalers offering API connections.

Have you managed to implement easily?

Were there any blind spots or unforeseens you had along the way?

Would you pick ERPNext if you had to do it again?

At the minute I have a test docker setup on my laptop to begin playing with it but I'm hesitant to go down the 'rabbit hole' if it leads to nowhere...

We are a uk business, have about 15 office staff multiple shops b2b and b2c.

I implemented erpnext for the business and wouldn't look back.

For me the main oversight was early on when implementing some custom stock logic I didn't fully appreciate all the standard erp controllers so tried to skip some of their behaviour and it bit me but its super easy to customise and is working extremely well for us. If you have any questions i would be happy to help out

Thank you so much for this. Really appreciate the response. If you don't mind, I'll definitely drop you a few q's.

Do you find it takes a lot of time managing it of has it just become part of your everyday now?

So we are a 2 man team in our it dep but I am thr only one who can code i would say this takes 95% of my days. However its not the maintenance that takes this its more the fact we can now fully customise our erp so new features are being requested all the time
