Have had nothing but great support from IntegriCom since we started working with them.
Most recently I had an issue with the 'new' Microsoft Outlook email. Not sure what happened on my laptop but it made me reset my Microsoft password and set up Outlook again and then I had issues logging in and having 'denied access' messages. Luckily IntegriCom found the issue that was basically a conflict in my system causing the denied access. Just took giving them control/access of my laptop and I was back up and operational in 10 minutes. So appreciative of their support and responsiveness.

I have been working full-time at Cloudy Wave Pvt. Ltd. for the past 4 months, and I can confidently say it is one of the best companies to start a career. My journey here began as an intern, and transitioning into a full-time role has been a great learning experience.
The work environment is extremely positive, supportive, and growth-oriented. One of the best things about this company is its people—everyone is genuinely helpful, including seniors who are always ready to guide without hesitation. The team management is excellent, ensuring that every member feels supported and motivated.
A special mention to our CEO, Prakash Navale Sir, who is a very understanding and knowledgeable leader. His guidance helps not only experienced developers but also freshers like me to grow with confidence.
I would also like to appreciate my senior, Rahul Shirsath Sir, who has been a constant support in my team and project. He is always ready to help, no matter the situation. Additionally, Gaurav & Sudhir Sir has been incredibly helpful and supportive throughout.
Overall, the environment, teamwork, and learning opportunities here are excellent. I highly recommend Cloudy Wave to anyone looking for a strong and positive start to their career.

Outstanding Company with Exemplary Professionalism and Supportive Leadership
Working with LnP infotech has been an incredibly rewarding experience. After joining as a QA from day one, the level of professionalism across all departments has stood out. The company culture fosters excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement, making it an ideal environment for both personal and professional growth.
One of the most notable aspects of this company is the unwavering support and guidance provided by the senior team. The leadership is approachable, experienced, and genuinely invested in the success of every employee. Whether it’s providing mentorship, answering questions, or stepping in to help with complex projects, the seniors consistently go above and beyond to ensure everyone feels confident and supported in their roles.
Their willingness to share knowledge and provide constructive feedback has helped me—and many others—develop new skills and take on new challenges with confidence. It’s clear that the leadership here doesn’t just manage; they lead by example, setting high standards and empowering others to meet them.
Overall, lnP infotech is a place where talent is nurtured, collaboration is encouraged, and success is shared. I’m proud to be part of this team and highly recommend the company to anyone looking for a professional, growth-oriented workplace with strong leadership.

Satyam gautam's Review Sourced from Google
I would like to offer some constructive feedback regarding your online platform. While the overall concept and service are commendable, there are several areas where refinement could significantly enhance user experience.
Firstly, the website’s interface, though visually appealing, occasionally lacks intuitive navigation. Streamlining the layout and improving the accessibility of key features would make the platform more user-centric. Additionally, optimizing page load times would greatly contribute to a smoother and more efficient browsing experience.
Secondly, the responsiveness of customer support could be augmented. Prompt and well-articulated assistance is pivotal in fostering trust and long-term engagement with users. Incorporating a more robust support system or live chat feature may prove beneficial.
Lastly, ensuring consistency in content accuracy and updating outdated information regularly would enhance the platform’s credibility and professionalism.
I appreciate the effort invested in developing this service and hope these suggestions contribute positively toward its continual improvement.

6 Frequently Asked Questions About ERP Consulting Companies
What are the red flags when evaluating ERP consulting companies?
The biggest red flag when evaluating ERP consulting companies is a firm that leads with software certifications but cannot show implemented projects at your company’s size and in your industry. Other warning signs include:
No dedicated project manager named upfront: If accountability isn't defined before signing, it won’t be defined during the engagement
Vague go-live timelines: Legitimate ERP consulting companies scope timelines by phase; a single number without a breakdown is a guess
Resistance to a discovery phase: Firms that want to skip straight to implementation are optimizing for contract value, not project success
References that only cover the software, not the consultant: Vendor-provided references tell you the platform works, not that this firm can deliver it
No change management offering: 70% of ERP failures are caused by people and process issues, not technology; a consultant who doesn’t address this is solving half the problem
The team that sells is not the team that delivers: A common bait-and-switch where senior consultants win the deal, and junior staff run the project
How much do ERP consultants charge for their services?
ERP consulting companies typically charge between $150 and $175 per hour, with tier-one software specialists like SAP and Oracle consultants sitting at the upper end of that range. Rates can vary by 20% to 30%, depending on your location.
Beyond hourly rates, the total cost depends on several variables:
Billing structure: Some ERP consulting firms charge by the hour, others by the day, and most on a fixed project fee.
Project complexity and duration: The longer and more complex the engagement, the higher the total cost.
ERP platform: An SAP consultant typically charges more than a consultant working on mid-market platforms like Sage 500.
Independence: ERP consultants who don’t take vendor kickbacks may charge higher rates to compensate for the lack of partner revenue, but are more likely to give unbiased recommendations.
Expertise scope: If you need help selecting a system rather than just implementing one, expect to pay more for broader, platform-agnostic knowledge.
The total project cost is largely driven by the implementation duration, which you’ll need to scope with the shortlisted consultants before you can calculate the total cost.
How do I know if a consultant’s ERP experience actually matches my business?
A consultant’s ERP experience matches your business when they can show completed implementations at your company’s size, in your industry, with references you can call.
Before signing:
Only meet with ERP consultants who have a reputation for working within your industry, as these are the experts who will understand the nuances of your business processes and how to align ERP to your operations.
Look for consultants with experience specific to your industry and your company size; a consultant who specializes in enterprise rollouts may be poorly suited for a mid-market business.
Ask which specific consultants will be assigned to your project and verify their individual track records, not just the company portfolio.
Require references from projects similar in size, scope, and industry; speak with these clients to understand how well the ERP consulting company managed scope, stayed on budget, and supported user adoption.
Check vendor independence. Some consultants claim objectivity but only sell two or three platforms, meaning you may end up with one of those solutions regardless of whether it’s the best fit for your business.
Here are the average timelines by organization size:
Small businesses: 3 to 4 months
Medium-sized businesses: 6 to 9 months
Large businesses: 9 to 18 months
Multinational businesses: 12 to 36 months
These are starting points, not guarantees. Several factors can significantly extend your timeline: scope, data quality, customization, and the availability of the ERP consulting company.
Cloud ERP deployments are generally faster than on-premises implementations, which require purchasing and setting up hardware, which is a process prone to vendor delays and technical issues.
What are the common causes of ERP failure?
ERP implementations fail most often due to poor strategy, poor change management, and a mismatch between the provider and the organization, not because of the ERP software itself.
ERP implementation failure rates can exceed 75%, while 23% of ERP projects exceed their budgets, with the underlying causes almost always predictable in advance.
The most common failure causes:
Wrong software or consultant fit: The most important failure factor is software that is a poor fit for the company, or requirements that are undefined or mismatched to actual business needs.
Treating it as an IT project: The biggest mistake companies make is viewing ERP as an IT project; it is a business transformation that needs to be led by the business, with buy-in from all stakeholders from the start.
Poor data quality: Organizations that underestimate data migration complexity often see their implementations fail, as what appears to be a clean database often contains duplicate records, inconsistent formats, and missing information.
Rushed testing: When Hershey embarked on a $112 million ERP implementation, it cut testing phases to meet an aggressive deadline; when the system went live, transactions failed to flow across CRM, ERP, and supply chain systems.
Should we use cloud-based or on-premises ERP?
Choose cloud if you are a small to mid-sized business, need to scale quickly, have distributed teams, or want predictable monthly costs.
Choose on-premises if you operate in a highly regulated industry with strict data residency requirements, need deep system customization, or have significant existing infrastructure you aren't ready to retire.
Here's how the two models compare on the factors that matter most:

On-premises ERP
Upfront cost
Low, subscription-based
High: hardware, licenses, infrastructure
Implementation speed
3 to 6 months
More than a year to fully deploy
