What Visma Solidbricks does

Visma Solidbricks is a Dutch software company that develops and sells a modular ERP system for construction companies, project developers, and real estate managers/landlords in the Netherlands. Originally founded in 1987 under the name BIS (Make IT Work) and rebranded to Solidbricks in the 2000s, the company has operated continuously for 35+ years in the Dutch building, development, and property management verticals.

The core product is a cloud-based, self-developed modular ERP — branded as 'building blocks' or 'solid bricks' — covering project monitoring, financial administration, contract and invoice processing, hour registration, budget tracking, and reporting. It is complemented by the Solidbricks-Vastgoed add-on for property management (rentals, indexation, contract prolongation, unit-level financials), the Approval cloud-based invoice approval workflow module, and the Bricky generative-AI assistant that produces datasets and dashboards from natural-language queries. The platform integrates in real time with Visma.net for financial administration, and supports dedicated Dutch compliance integrations including KvK (Chamber of Commerce), CBS index data, and Pro Rata VAT (BTW) handling, plus connections to Salesforce, DMS, and SAP/CISPro via a workflow engine.

The company makes money primarily through recurring subscription licenses for the modular ERP, supplemented by implementation and consulting services delivered by direct, dedicated consultants. Go-to-market is sales-led: a direct enterprise field-sales team plus reseller/implementation partners (notably Arch-IT, the largest Visma Net implementation partner in the Netherlands, and About Software). Pricing is quote-based, annual, and not publicly disclosed. Visma Solidbricks is a private limited company (BV) headquartered in Amsterdam and operates as a subsidiary within the Visma group, holding ISO 27001 and ISO 90001 certifications.

Direct peers

• Yardi: Global real estate management software suite serving landlords, property managers, and investors. Directly comparable to the Solidbricks-Vastgoed module for real estate managers, with much broader feature depth and global reach but less Netherlands-specific regulatory localization.
• AFAS Software: Dutch ERP/payroll software vendor serving the mid-market. Directly comparable: both are Netherlands-based, subscription-based ERP providers competing for similar Dutch mid-market and enterprise buyers, though AFAS spans broader verticals rather than construction/real estate specialization.
• MRI Software: Real estate and property management software vendor serving landlords, property managers, and occupiers. Comparable as a competing vertical-specific real estate ERP platform; overlaps with Solidbricks-Vastgoed across rental administration and contract/indexation workflows.
• Exact (Exact Online): Major Dutch/Nordic cloud ERP vendor serving SMB and mid-market. Comparable as another Netherlands-rooted subscription ERP targeting similar customer sizes; Solidbricks differentiates via deeper construction/real estate verticalization.

Emerging players

• Acumatica (Construction Edition): Cloud-native mid-market ERP with a dedicated Construction Edition covering project costing and contract management. Comparable as a competing modern cloud ERP targeting construction specialty, though with broader geographic reach rather than Dutch localization.
• Procore Technologies: Cloud platform for construction project management and financial workflows. Comparable as an emergent player tackling construction-specific financials, though it competes more on field operations than on integrated real estate ERP.
• Trimble Viewpoint (Spectrum/Elements): ERP suite tuned for construction and engineering contractors. Comparable as a vertical ERP competitor to Solidbricks ERP in construction financials and project costing; less of a presence in Dutch-speaking markets but a credible global alternative.

Broad incumbents

• Visma (group ERP portfolio): Parent company and broader incumbent with multiple ERP/accounting suites (e.g., Visma.net, Visma Accountable). Comparable as the controlling ecosystem around Solidbricks — represents both distribution leverage and a substitution risk from sister Visma products.
• SAP S/4HANA Cloud: Global enterprise ERP with construction/engineering extensions (job costing, project systems). Competes with Solidbricks for larger Dutch enterprise projects where SAP is the incumbent, particularly with firms already on SAP like DEKRA.
• Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central / Finance: Broad cloud ERP/CRM platform frequently evaluated by Dutch mid-market and enterprise buyers. Comparable as an alternative full-suite ERP that competes with Solidbricks for the same Dutch construction/real estate wallet, typically via partners.
