MES Implementation Costs

Introducing an MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is traditionally associated with high upfront investments and long project durations.
Conventional systems require expensive licenses, dedicated hardware, and months of configuration and rollout.

Cloud-based, standardized, and ready in a few hours — with fully transparent and predictable costs.

Why MES Implementation Costs Matter

The cost structure often determines whether a digitalization project gets approved — or postponed indefinitely.

Traditional MES projects frequently involve:

License and hardware investments reaching six-figure amounts
Long implementation times (several months)
High external consulting and customization workload

This leads many companies to delay critical digital initiatives.

How SYMESTIC Reduces Implementation Costs

No capital expenditures – instead, a monthly subscription (starting at €500)
Ready in 3 hours instead of months
Onboarding & support included – no additional consulting fees
Automatic updates – no internal IT maintenance effort

The result: faster value, lower risk, and fully predictable monthly costs.
