Is your company in a position where it can not live up to its customers' expectations or act as proactively as its competitors? Or have your company simply grown out of its existing ERP system? The reasons for changing an ERP system can be many and the solutions rarely look the same. In this post, we at xperitus provide you with some advice to consider when it is time for your company to change its ERP system.
See the Long-Term Benefits and Value
We know that a company that is about to change its ERP system is facing a big decision. The process in which advantages and disadvantages must be analysed and compared is often long and time-consuming. Therefore, it is important to see the light at the end of the tunnel and find a driving force, in order to be able to focus on the benefits your new ERP system will bring to your organization. In other words, do not see your change of ERP system as a necessary evil, but as a valuable investment in increased profitability.
Important Aspects for a Sustainability Solution
An investment must be profitable. To get the most out of your new ERP system, today and in the future, there are a lot of important aspects to consider when evaluating the various options. We list four crucial aspects below.
- Flexibility - growth & integration
Is your company on the rise? Then a flexible ERP system that can be upgraded in sync with the growth of your organization is an important aspect. An ERP system can be flexible in many ways - for example by offering choices between different databases and operating systems.
- Security - for critical business processes
Security is an ever-present issue - and we understand why. That your data is stored with the highest level of security is crucial. Therefore, value an ERP system that provides your company with full control over its entire organization's data.
- Upgrades - automatic solutions
With automatic upgrades for your ERP system, you can ensure that the organization is always utilizing the latest version of your ERP system. Our cloud-based ERP system Netsuite is an example of a system that is upgraded automatically - with as much as 2 upgrades a year included in the license.
The main purpose of an ERP system is to streamline your organization and business processes. Thus, user-friendliness is an important aspect - preferably at a low cost of ownership. Both NetSuite and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne are user-friendly and have low cost of ownership. Maybe one of these two systems is an alternative for you?
