What is Clarvision ERP
Clarvision is a Romanian ERP developed by EBS Romania (Brașov), with a history spanning over 25 years. Historically specialised in discrete manufacturing, heavy industries (metallurgy, mechanical engineering, automotive components, furniture), and technical distribution, it serves over 400 active clients — mostly mid-market manufacturers.
Unlike Charisma or SeniorERP which are geared towards FMCG/distribution, Clarvision is natively a manufacturing ERP — featuring MRP II, capacity planning, order-to-production tracking, and real-time costing during the manufacturing process.
Main Modules
1. Production (core) — multi-level BOM, production orders, MRP II, finite capacity planning, consumption reporting, actual vs. standard cost, serial/batch traceability.
2. Finance & Accounting — GL, AP/AR, fixed assets, multi-company, multi-currency, RAS (Romanian Accounting Standards) + IFRS, group consolidation.
3. Inventory & Procurement — multi-warehouse management, MRP, ABC analysis, batch/serial tracking, FIFO/LIFO/average cost.
4. Sales & Distribution — orders, invoicing, framework contracts, multi-level pricing.
5. Operational CRM — pipeline, opportunities, technical quotes with product configurator.
6. Service & Maintenance — intervention management, service contracts, warranties.
7. QMS — quality control, NCR, internal audits, ISO 9001.
8. BI — parameterised reports, dashboards, drill-down capabilities.
Target Audience
Typical Profile:
Mid-market discrete manufacturers (50-300 users) — metal, mechanics, furniture, plastics, automotive components
Companies with mandatory serial/batch traceability (automotive, medical, food)
B2B technical services with scheduled maintenance interventions
Technical distributors requiring a product configurator
Implementation Models
On-premise (majority), hosted EBS, or Azure private cloud. Typical implementation: 6-14 months depending on production complexity.
Licensing
Named user × modules + annual maintenance 18-22%. Typical pricing: €1,000-€1,800/user/year depending on modules. Details: «How much does Clarvision cost — 5-year TCO».
When it makes sense
YES: Mid-market manufacturers in RO, true MRP II, mandatory serial/batch traceability, stable vendor with 25+ years, budget €120k-€450k.
NOT the best fit: Pure retail/FMCG (Charisma/SeniorERP are more suitable), intensive omnichannel, large-scale modern SFA, predictive AI.
Real Limitations
Omnichannel ecommerce — connectors are available but not native
Multi-retailer EDI — requires a dedicated project
Modern SFA — classic UX, typical adoption <50%
B2B Self-service Portal — rigid
AI / predictive forecast — mostly descriptive reporting
For these blind spots, Azuvio Smart Layer: Clarvision remains the core ERP, while Azuvio adds modern layers (SFA, B2B Portal, multi-retailer EDI, AI forecasting). See «When you need a Smart Layer over Clarvision».
Conclusion
Clarvision = a mature choice for mid-market manufacturers in RO. For modern operational extensions, a Smart Layer is more efficient than native customisation.
