A Tally alternative for growing Indian companies

CATEYE ERP keeps the groups, vouchers and reports your accountant already knows, and puts sales, purchasing, manufacturing, payroll and HR on the same platform, with one login and one set of records.

Signs your books have outgrown their system

Accounting software can be doing its job well while the rest of the company works around it. These are the usual signs that it is time to look at something bigger.

  • Sales, purchasing and payroll each sit in their own tool or spreadsheet
  • The same order gets typed twice, once for the team and again for the books
  • People outside accounts have to ask for reports instead of seeing them
  • The month-end close is spent chasing entries from other departments
  • You run several companies and combine their accounts by hand

Your accountant keeps what works, and the company gains the rest

Start with accounts and GST, and switch on other modules when you are ready. They all share the same customers, suppliers, items, employees and books.

Books that feel familiar

Double-entry books with groups, vouchers and report names your team knows, and keyboard-first voucher entry.

GST built in

GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B reports, GSTR-2B matching and TDS, e-invoice and e-way bill files to upload on the government portals, and statutory rates kept as dated data.

Order to cash

A quote becomes a sales order, a delivery and an invoice, and an online payment posts its own receipt.

Procure to pay

A request becomes quotes, an approved order and goods received, ready to match against the bill.

Manufacturing and stock

Bills of material, work orders and MRP, with batches, serial numbers, godowns and cycle counts.

Payroll and HR

Salary structures, PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS, payslips and bank files, all posted to the books.

When staying on Tally may suit you better

A move is only worth making if it solves a real problem. We would rather tell you now than after you have started.

  • You need to work offline. CATEYE ERP runs online, so your team needs an internet connection
  • You rely on TDL customisations. They do not carry over. Tell us what they do, and we will say honestly whether we can cover it
  • Accounts is all you need. If nothing else in the company is held up, your current setup may be enough

Questions about moving from Tally

What comes across from Tally?

Masters, opening balances and vouchers. You can then compare the result with your old reports before you switch.

Will our accountant have to learn everything again?

The groups, vouchers and report names stay familiar, and voucher entry is keyboard-first. The screens are new, so allow some time to settle in.

Do we have to use every module?

No. Modules are switched on for each company, so you can start with accounts and GST and add sales, purchasing, manufacturing or HR later, without moving your data.

We run several companies. Does that work?

Yes. You can have any number of companies, each with its own books, and consolidated accounts and inter-company invoices are available.

Can we keep a copy of our data?

Yes. You can download a company backup in one file whenever you like.

Who runs the software?

We do. We host it, set it up with your team and install updates.
