Our story
In 2017, a founder and a handful of technology passionates set out to solve a problem that every enterprise running SAP already lived with — the gap between what ERP recorded and what operations teams could actually execute in the field.
What started as a single service management solution has grown into an ERP Execution Platform trusted by operations teams across five industries — all without ever modifying an ERP core.
We listen. We challenge.
We work collaboratively.
We make things.
UpBuff makes it fast and smooth for businesses to satisfy their users, customers, employees, and mentors. We adopted a fresh approach to building and delivering software-as-a-service that’s affordable, quick to implement, and designed for the end-user.
Where It All Began
In 2017, under the leadership of our founder Mr. Shiburaj Krishnapillai and cofounder Mr. Rajesh Kattilepurath, a small team of deeply committed technologists launched a service management solution that created a groundbreaking impact for their first client.
What started as a focused field service tool was gradually revamped — expanded with updated architecture, new modules, and deeper ERP integrations — delivering better customer experiences with every iteration and laying the foundation for what UpBuff would become.
Building the Faith
We adopted one formula for earning trust — and only one: build relationships that last. Over half a decade, that approach scaled our products, our team, and our reputation across some of the world’s most critical businesses, governments, and organisations.
Trust is a valuable commodity. Relationships are gold. Those two beliefs have never changed from the first deployment in 2017 to every enterprise we run today — and they never will.
What It Looks Like in Practice
Field technicians at a drone manufacturer logging service orders from a jobsite in Rajasthan. Warehouse operators at a chemical distributor scanning goods receipts that sync to SAP in under a second. Van sales reps capturing orders offline and pushing them to ERP the moment connectivity returns.
Every one of those deployments runs on UpBuff. Every one of them runs without a single modification to ERP core. And every one of them survived an ERP upgrade without a day of re-testing.
Our Vision
A world where “we had to customise ERP” is never the answer to an operational problem. Where every enterprise can extend its ERP capabilities safely — without modification risk, without upgrade anxiety, and without trading long-term platform health for short-term speed. Clean Core is not a constraint. It is the only sustainable foundation for enterprise technology.
Our Mission
To build the ERP Execution Platform that eliminates the false choice between operational agility and ERP stability — by connecting field teams, warehouse operators, and sales reps to live ERP data through official APIs, with zero core modifications, full audit traceability, and an architecture that stays upgrade-safe for the lifetime of your ERP investment.

Join our team
We are a small team solving a large problem. If you understand enterprise ERP, care deeply about clean software architecture, and want to build tools that real operations teams use every day — we want to hear from you.
Our Engineering Culture
Six commitments that govern how we build, ship, and stand behind the UpBuff platform.
01
Clean Core is non-negotiable
No feature ships if it requires a core ERP modification to work. That constraint is not a limitation — it is the reason our customers can upgrade their ERP without fear.
02
Build fast. Break nothing.
Velocity matters. But speed that creates instability is not velocity — it is cost deferred. We move fast within a discipline that keeps every deployment stable long after go-live.
03
Validate in the field, not in a demo
Features are tested in live ERP environments against real operational workflows. If it does not hold up under field conditions, it does not ship. No exceptions.
04
Document the hard parts loudly
Enterprise integration is complex. We do not hide that complexity behind marketing language. We document the edge cases, the failure modes, and the gotchas — for our team and for our customers.
05
Integration is a team sport
Engineers, implementation specialists, and customer success work as one unit on every deployment. There is no handoff culture at UpBuff — the team that builds it owns it in production.
06
Publish what you learn
We invest in architecture guides, integration patterns, and technical content — because the enterprise software community is better when knowledge circulates rather than accumulates in private.
About UpBuff — questions answered
A Clean Core ERP strategy means all extensions and integrations happen through official ERP APIs — never through direct database writes or core modifications. This keeps ERP stable, auditable, and safe for every future upgrade cycle. It is the architectural foundation every UpBuff deployment is built on.
No. While we have the deepest expertise in SAP Business One — including Service Layer, DI API, and Crystal Reports integrations — UpBuff also integrates with SAP S/4HANA via OData and BAPIs, Oracle ERP Cloud, Oracle NetSuite, and Epicor Kinetic via REST. Every integration uses official APIs only.
An ERP Execution Platform is a dedicated layer that sits outside your ERP and handles the operational execution your ERP was never designed to do alone — mobile field workflows, warehouse scanning, van sales, shopfloor management. ERP stays the system of record. UpBuff becomes the system of execution. The two talk to each other through official APIs in real time.
Because every ERP modification you make today becomes a re-testing obligation in your next upgrade. Enterprises that customise ERP cores spend an average of 18 to 24 months on S/4HANA migrations that should take 6. UpBuff customers complete the same upgrades faster because there is nothing to re-test — the execution layer was never inside ERP to begin with.
