How big is your cost leak from AFAS?
COST-LEAK SCAN Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Find the hidden costs of AFAS.
No sales pitch. No whitepaper. Just the number.
Separate systems, double entry, Excel checks and slow reporting often feel normal. Until you work out what they cost.
For a company of 50 employees, Odoo saves an estimated € 70,000 over 5 years versus AFAS, mostly on licence and implementation cost. On top of that, an estimated € 81,000 per year leaks away through system friction. Work out your own situation below.
The biggest cost leak rarely shows up on your software invoice
You see licences and support hours. What you see less clearly:
- double entry
- waiting for approval
- manual checks
- Excel next to ERP
- fixing errors
- reports that arrive too late
Those aren't just irritations. Those are costs.
How many employees work in, or just around, your ERP every day?
Drag the slider to the number of employees who work with or around your ERP.
Even small daily friction gets expensive once dozens of people have to work with it.
How fragmented is your software landscape?
Pick the situation that fits best.
What do we mean by system friction?
The more systems claim to hold the truth, the more time it takes to be sure what is correct. That searching, those checks and corrections are the friction - and it keeps running every month.

Your indicative outcome
Mostly lower licence and implementation cost than AFAS, over the 5-year total cost of ownership.

How do you calculate the cost leak?
We take the number of employees working in or around your ERP, times an hourly rate, times an estimated amount of friction hours per month (base friction plus how fragmented your systems are). An indication, not a quote.
