Kinetic's pricing is best suited for mid-market manufacturers with 51 to 1,000 employees, which represents the dominant reviewer segment on G2. Industries including discrete manufacturing, aerospace, plastics, electronics, and medical devices appear most frequently among G2 reviewers, reflecting Kinetic's deep manufacturing-specific functionality in MRP, BOM, job scheduling, and quote-to-cash workflows. G2 reviewers from small businesses flag the cloud pricing as high and the modular cost structure as difficult to justify at lower volumes. Enterprise reviewers note integration complexity and consulting costs. Buyers with dedicated ERP administrators, tolerance for implementation investment, and need for a single manufacturing source of truth get the most from Kinetic's pricing model.
Kinetic offers no free version or publicly listed pricing tiers. According to G2's pricing data for Kinetic, all access is through custom enterprise quotes. G2 reviewers consistently highlight that Kinetic's pricing is structured around a modular add-on model, meaning base access does not include the full feature set. Reviewers note that capabilities like advanced MRP, field service, AI via Prism, data lake access, and third-party integrations each carry separate costs. One G2 reviewer explicitly states that everything useful is behind a paywall requiring purchase of multiple modules. Prospective buyers should budget well beyond the base contract to unlock the functionality most commonly cited as valuable.
G2 reviews of Kinetic present a divided value picture. Among satisfied mid-market manufacturing users, Kinetic's pricing is seen as on-par with comparable ERP solutions, with one G2 reviewer explicitly stating pricing aligns with what you get. However, recurring cost complaints undercut that sentiment: multiple G2 reviewers flag that core functionality sits behind add-on modules, ballooning total cost of ownership with no clear ROI. Maintenance contract costs are called excessive by several reviewers, and cloud-based pricing is described as high. Consulting fees compound expenses further. For manufacturers who fully leverage MRP, BOM, and scheduling modules, Kinetic delivers measurable value, but budget-constrained buyers frequently find the modular pricing model erodes the initial cost justification.
I like Kinetic for its native reporting and the customization of Grow BI, which aids in data delivery to stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Slow implementations and the setup was not so easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is way too complicated for a small business, which causes unintended mapping and results. Epicor is a poor business partner. Once they get you hooked, you can't extract yourself. They have regular price increases and consistently change the product and leave you, the user, to figure out the implications going forward and adjusting your operations to work within the parameters they changed.
