MIGRATION IS ABOUT MORE THAN MOVING DATA

You're Moving Years of Business History, Processes, and Decisions.
An ERP migration isn't simply a technical transfer from one system to another.
Your ERP may contain years of financial history, customer and vendor information, inventory records, operational data, reporting structures, business rules, and custom processes your employees rely on every day.
Dorado helps determine what should move, what should change, what should be retired, and how the new environment should support your business going forward.
Because the goal isn't to recreate your old ERP in a new system.
It's to build a better way forward.

You may already be seeing the warning signs:
-
Aging customizations are difficult to maintain
-
Employees rely on workarounds outside the ERP
-
Important processes depend on outdated functionality
-
Reporting requires too much manual effort
-
Your current environment limits new capabilities
-
Upgrades have become increasingly difficult
-
No one is completely sure why certain customizations exist
-
The system no longer fits the way your business operates
​
These aren't just technology issues.
They consume employee time, increase risk, complicate upgrades, and make it harder for your ERP to evolve with the business.
IS YOUR ERP ENVIRONMENT MAKING CHANGE HARDER?

DON'T MIGRATE THE PROBLEMS YOU ALREADY HAVE

A New ERP Environment Shouldn't Be a More Modern Version of Your Old One.
Years of ERP use can leave behind outdated data, unnecessary customizations, duplicate processes, and workarounds that made sense at one point but no longer serve the business.
Simply moving everything into a new environment can carry those problems forward.
Dorado looks at the business behind the system before determining what should make the move.
We help you ask:
-
What data actually needs to migrate?
-
What historical information needs to remain accessible?
-
Which processes should be improved?
-
Which customizations are still providing business value?
-
Which requirements can now be handled with standard functionality?
-
Where is development still justified?
​
Migration becomes an opportunity to simplify, improve, and prepare your ERP for the future.

WHEN STANDARD ERP ISN'T ENOUGH

Your Business Shouldn't Have to Fit Into a Box Just Because Your Software Does.
Standard ERP functionality can solve a lot. It can't solve every unique business requirement.
Your organization may have specialized processes, reporting requirements, approval structures, workflows, or operational needs that aren't fully addressed out of the box.
That's where thoughtful development and customization can create real value.
But more customization isn't automatically better.
Dorado first looks for the simplest, most sustainable way to solve the business requirement. When customization is the right answer, we design it with the broader ERP environment and your long-term needs in mind.


Custom ERP Functionality
Extend ERP capabilities when standard functionality doesn't adequately support an important business requirement.

Workflow & Process Automation
Reduce repetitive work and manual steps by designing workflows around the way your organization needs to operate.

Custom Reporting
Give decision-makers access to financial and operational information in formats that better support the way they manage the business.

Forms & Documents
Create or modify business documents, forms, and outputs around your organization's requirements.
​

Existing Customization Review
Evaluate older customizations to understand what they do, why they're needed, and whether a better approach is now available.

Customization Modernization
Redesign or replace legacy functionality that has become difficult to maintain or is preventing your ERP environment from moving forward.

Testing & Documentation
Test custom functionality and document important requirements so your ERP environment is easier to understand and support over time.

JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE ERP DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD

Every Customization Should Earn Its Place.
Customization can solve an important business problem. It can also create unnecessary complexity if it's used where configuration, process improvement, or standard functionality would work just as well.
-
Before developing something custom, Dorado considers:
-
What business problem are we actually solving?
-
Can standard functionality meet the requirement?
-
Could the process itself be simplified?
-
What value will the customization create?
-
How will it affect upgrades and future changes?
-
What will it take to maintain?
-
Is there a simpler solution?
​
The objective isn't to eliminate customization.
It's to customize where it creates enough business value to justify the complexity.

There isn't one standard price because the scope of migration and development projects varies significantly.
Essentials:

Start at $80/user/month
Premium:
