Questions about ViDU Lite, answered

ViDU Lite is an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning system) that runs a whole small business on one shared database, sales, purchase, inventory, projects, HR, payroll, expenses, GST billing and reports. It is built by YantrAdhigam and right-sized for teams of 1 to 50 people.

Small service, distribution and trading businesses, typically 1 to 50 employees, in Gujarat and across India, that have outgrown spreadsheets and standalone billing software but don't want the cost, complexity or long rollout of a large enterprise ERP.

Projects, Sales, Purchase, Inventory, HR, Payroll, Expenses and Reports & Dashboards, plus shared Products & Variants, Approvals, Documents and a full audit log. Every module writes to the same data, so nothing needs reconciling between systems.

It is broader than either. ViDU Lite does GST-compliant billing and tracks the financial impact of sales, purchase, stock and payroll in one place, so your invoices, stock valuation and cost all tie together. Many teams use it alongside their tax accountant's tools rather than replacing statutory bookkeeping entirely.

Yes. You can model a multi-level structure (company → division → branch → cost centre), run stock across multiple warehouses with transfers between them, and scope what each team sees to its own branch or area.

ViDU Lite is a responsive web application, so it runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone, no install needed. Your team can approve, check stock or raise a document from wherever they are.

Yes. Products support attributes and variants, approvals use your own thresholds and levels, workflow automation lets you set triggers and actions across modules, and saved views let each user shape their lists. The org structure maps to how you actually operate.

Pricing is tailored to your team size and the modules you use, and it's deliberately right-sized for small businesses rather than priced like enterprise ERP. Book a demo and we'll give you a clear quote for your 1-50 person team, with no hidden per-seat surprises.

No large minimums. ViDU Lite is designed for teams from a single user up to about 50, so you can start small and add users and modules as you grow.

You start with the modules that fit your business, service teams often lead with projects and invoicing, distributors with inventory and purchase, traders with sales, purchase and GST, and switch others on when you need them.

Yes. We run a tailored walkthrough on the modules you actually use, so you see it working against your kind of data before you decide. Book a demo to arrange one.

Product updates are delivered continuously to the hosted product, and support is included with your subscription. Implementation and data-migration help is available so your rollout goes smoothly.

For a small team, a focused rollout typically takes days to a few weeks, not the months a large ERP needs. The time depends mostly on how clean your opening data (customers, vendors, items, stock, balances) is.

Yes. Templated CSV import with preview, rectify and commit steps lets you load masters and opening balances, so you don't re-key everything. We provide the templates and help you map your current spreadsheets across.

YantrAdhigam provides guided onboarding: configuring your org structure, approvals, tax settings and users, importing your data, and training your team. You're not left to figure it out alone.

That's the point of the clean, modern interface and the five list layouts (table, cards, board, calendar, timeline), each team reads its work the way it already thinks about it. Most staff are productive after a short walkthrough, no specialist training required.

Many small businesses move from Tally or a standalone billing tool to bring operations, stock and people into one system. We help you export from your current tool and import into ViDU Lite, and you can keep your accountant's statutory workflow alongside.

Yes. Sales and purchase documents apply GST/IGST correctly with HSN/SAC and state codes, so your invoices are compliant and your figures are clean at filing time. Multi-currency and country-wise tax are supported for cross-border trade.

Yes. Payroll runs salary structures and monthly pay runs with statutory PF, ESI and TDS handled, and produces payslips, so nobody exports to a spreadsheet to close payroll.

Role-based access control with granular capabilities, plus row-level scoping down your org structure, means each person sees only their own work or area. Sensitive actions run through multi-level approvals.

Every editable record keeps a complete, attributable history of what changed, by whom and when. Nothing happens off the record, which matters for approvals, discounts and stock adjustments.

Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest, sensitive credentials are encrypted in the database, and access is least-privilege by default. We never sell your data, and you can export your records at any time.

ViDU Lite runs on managed cloud infrastructure with backups. Media storage is swappable to S3-compatible object storage, and deployment options can be discussed for businesses with specific residency needs.

Included support from the YantrAdhigam team, with onboarding help, training and ongoing assistance. We usually reply within one business day.

We support businesses across India, with a primary base in Gujarat (HQ in Ahmedabad) and offices in Bangalore and Surat. Support is in English, and our India team understands local GST and statutory practice.

Yes. We configure the product around service, distribution or trading workflows and can advise on setup for your specific business as part of onboarding. See the industry pages for how each maps to the modules.
