A custom Frappe app is a standalone application built on the Frappe Framework. It can work

Alongside ERPNext

Integrated deeply with ERPNext modules

Integrated with Other Frappe Apps

These apps solve business problems that standard ERPNext modules cannot or should not handle

Why Businesses Choose Custom Frappe Apps

Every need is different and so should be the app

Your processes are unique

No generic ERP or SaaS tool matches your exact workflow.

Teams rely on Excel/Google Sheets for critical operations — which leads to errors, delays, and zero visibility.

Custom apps make the software adapt to you.

They integrate perfectly with ERPNext

Custom apps extend ERPNext instead of hacking it.

They’re faster and cheaper

Frappe provides authentication, permissions, APIs, workflows — everything you need
