Moving off Marg ERP? PharmOS migrates you in 48 hours — free.
Marg has served Indian pharmacies for decades, but the desktop-only model is now a bottleneck. PharmOS is cloud-native, has first-party MR + Van mobile apps, parses WhatsApp B2B orders into bills, and ships continuous updates. We import your Marg masters, opening stock, distributors and party ledger at no cost.

- 15-min demo on real data
- No per-seat lock-in
Why pharmacies are leaving Marg ERP
Stuck on one desktop
One PC, one master. Owner cannot see sales from a second branch or from home. Cloud is bolted-on, not native.
No mobile / WhatsApp
No first-party MR or Van app. B2B orders typed by hand from WhatsApp screenshots. Field team runs on paper.
Annual CD updates
New features land once a year on a CD. Compliance changes (GST, e-way, IRN) lag by months.
Per-license + AMC
Pay per PC, pay annual maintenance, pay for every module. Costs grow with every counter you add.
PharmOS gives you everything Marg does — plus everything it doesn't
- Cloud + offline desktop on the same data. Owner reads sales from phone, counter still works without internet.
- WhatsApp B2B parser — distributors send free-text orders; we convert to live bills automatically.
- First-party MR + Van mobile apps — offline outbox, GPS check-in, photo POD, UPI helper.
- Multi-branch sync built-in. Per-entity conflict policy (bills client-wins, stock server-wins).
- GST + e-way + IRN compliance integrated, NIC GSP wired. Drug-licence tracker with renewal alerts.
- Auto-dunning worker for overdue customers at 0 / 7 / 15 days. Bank recon (HDFC / ICICI / SBI / Axis).
- Continuous releases — 12+ updates in 30 days. No annual CD wait.
- Subscription pricing, no per-seat lock-in. Free migration team handles your import.

Frequently asked questions
How long does Marg-to-PharmOS migration take?+
Most single-store pharmacies are live within 48 hours. We import your SKU master, opening stock, distributor + customer ledger, and party history. Multi-store chains take 4-7 days depending on data volume.
Will I lose any data from Marg?+
No. Your full Marg history stays with you. We import a complete snapshot, you keep your Marg backups for the legal retention period (8 years for GST). Parallel-run for the first 1-2 weeks if you want belt-and-braces.
What does the migration cost?+
Free for all paid tiers (Lite ₹11,999/year, Pro ₹24,999/year, Multi-Branch custom). No hidden setup fee. We do this because we know switching is the friction — the product sells itself once you are on it.
Will my staff need retraining?+
Half a day, not a week. We kept Marg-style keyboard shortcuts (F2 hold, F4 return, F8 credit override). The unit picker (box / strip / loose) is the only meaningfully different concept and most cashiers find it more intuitive after the first hour.
Can I run Marg and PharmOS side-by-side during transition?+
Yes. The desktop counter works offline, so you can parallel-run for any time you want. Most pilots have run both for 2 weeks before fully cutting over.
What if PharmOS goes down?+
Cloud uptime target is 99.5% monthly. The desktop counter has embedded Postgres so billing keeps running through internet AND cloud outages. Data syncs the moment connectivity returns.
