These may be signs of data silos and if you answer yes to the following, it might be time for you to implement an ERP system.</p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="/c/erp-software/">ERP software platforms</a> are tools that businesses (mostly manufacturers) employ to effectively integrate and manage critical areas across your organization. These processes include planning, inventory, purchasing, marketing, sales, finance and even human resources. This solution is designed to provide users with total control over corporate departments’ computer systems, facilitating communication and information sharing.</span></p><div class="fot-toc"> <div class="fot-toc__header"> <h4>What are examples of ERP software?</h4> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> <div class="fot-toc__list"> <ol class="fot-toc__ol col50"> <li><a href="#netsuite">NetSuite ERP</a></li> <li><a href="#syspro">SYSPRO</a></li> <li><a href="#scoro">Scoro</a></li> </ol> <ol class="fot-toc__ol col50"> <li><a href="#sage">Sage Intacct</a></li> <li><a href="#brightpearl">Brightpearl</a></li> <li><a href="#horizon">Horizon ERP</a></li> </ol> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> </div><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ERP software functions as a central control hub, integrating all departments and processes, giving businesses visibility into their organizations by leveraging critical information.

The danger of overspending associated with ERP implementation is real. System incompatibility can also pose a problem if users do not change the way their organizations operate. Aside from this, <a href="https://www.cio.com/article/2397802/enterprise-resource-planning/article.html">improper implementation of an ERP system</a> could have repercussions that include accumulated costs that could hurt a business in the long run. These problems often stem from organizations’ refusal to part with old processes that may not sit well with new systems.</span></p><h3 id="" class="bg-title"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why is ERP Useful?</span></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Because an ERP solution unifies businesses’ resources to meet the requirements of all the departments within, they basically facilitate communication resulting in improved operations. Now there are a lot of benefits associated with the use of such tool, but why is ERP useful? Here we discuss the direct impact of ERP platforms on business organizations as a whole.</span></p><h3><strong>1. No More Communication Barriers</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ERP software effectively gets rid of known barriers to interdepartmental communication inside companies. An example of this would be in the case of departments in charge of sales, which are traditionally independent of others. As ERP acts as a common solution among departments, it gets rid of factors that hinder product delivery and communication. Under an ERP system, each corporate department works in conjunction with all its counterparts to form a single consciousness. This promotes smooth operation and ultimately profitability.</span></p><h3><strong>2. Cost Control and Savings</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A very significant and apparent effect of ERP software use on businesses is the decrease in resource and data management costs. This is achieved by the fact that reductions in IT management practices result from the use of a singular management platform. Why pay for multiple technicians when you can settle for one? Aside from these, huge power savings can also be made as most ERP systems are cloud-based and are maintained by their vendors. Such result in savings and therefore, better cash flow.</span></p><h3><strong>3. Faster Completion of Tasks</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ERP apps are also known for their capability to track products–from production to delivery to end-users. If a computer company for example uses such a system, customers can easily make orders and pay for them through online systems. The order is then processed and proceeds to production. The system is basically one big production line involving few staff and a single ordering platform, which can be accessed by relevant departments. This capability promotes faster production, leaving satisfied customers.</span></p><h3><strong>4. Better Planning/Reporting</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Using an ERP solution amounts to having a singular reporting platform for all processes. This feature allows the application to generate analytics and reports anytime. Functions across all departments can easily be analyzed and compared as the need for the use of emails and spreadsheets is eliminated. Financial reporting is where ERP platforms excel, allowing users to generate cash flow and income statements easily. Efficient financial management is always a sound proposition for any business, which is a very effective tool for growth.</span></p><h3><strong>5. Data Security</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Data security is one area where ERP solutions are very useful, allowing departments to share information. This results in total control over who gets to access and alter information. Provision of a singular input system is the key to such systems’ ability to provide high-level security. Unlike using multiple systems, it doesn’t result in source conflicts while boosting data consistency, security and accuracy. Information security benefits not only companies but customers as well.</span></p><h3><strong>6. Customization Capability</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most ERP solutions are modular in nature, hosting multiple tools in a single suite. Every app that comes with an ERP system can either be an independent platform or can integrate with the whole software package. This allows businesses to choose only the apps they need, resulting in an interface that is highly-suitable for the company. System implementation is likewise a part of customization with on-premise solutions requiring additional hardware while cloud-deployed systems are handled by vendors. ERP scalability results in additional savings for users.</span></p><h3 id="" class="bg-title"><span style="font-weight: 400;">When Is It Time To Purchase An ERP Solution?</span></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are a variety of signs that indicate the need for an ERP solution that businesses should look out for. Recognizing these red flags could prove beneficial to any organization who seek profitability and growth. Here are some of them.</span></p><h3><strong>1. Too Many Solutions for Different Processes</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Businesses should take time to analyze their existing systems. Do they utilize different platforms, which could otherwise be done by a single solution? Sticking to such systems could stunt not only corporate growth but bottom lines as well. Not only that, separate systems could prove disastrous to otherwise smoothly running processes. For example, inaccurate sales data could negatively impact inventory management while lack of accounting information could adversely affect processes such as payroll and marketing budget allocation.</span></p><h3><strong>2. Tedious Accounting Processes and Complications</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most obvious signs that a business requires an ERP solution is if it still makes use of paper sales orders and invoices, which involves hours of manual data entry into varied systems. Take time to think how much time can be saved by automating such processes. In addition, ERP software can also help in financial reporting. Such is accomplished by easily reconciling financial data across different systems and storing them in a single database.</span></p><h3><strong>3. Poor Sales and Inventory Management</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most pressing concerns among growing businesses is inventory management. It is but natural for businesses to ensure that ample stocks are available in certain locations at the right time. The separate management of inventory, sales and customer information cannot be undermined. If a highly-sellable product becomes unavailable to customers, chances are sales will suffer. The same goes for inventory tracking, lack of which could adversely impact company image.</span></p><h3><strong>4. Complicated and Outdated Systems</strong></h3><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It is a known fact that managing multiple systems can pose problems for IT managers. The costs, time and complications associated with customizing, integrating and maintaining these platforms are things that businesses could do without. Patching these systems, which often come in the form of legacy software, on-premise and system upgrades could prove troublesome for managers, not to mention expensive.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Contrary to traditional practice, purchasing additional software does not only fail to fix such systems, they also make them more complex. The use of modern technology like cloud-based ERP solutions is bound to resolve these complications as it eliminates the need for updates and can be scaled as a business grows. </span></p><h3 id="" class="bg-title"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Examples of ERP Software</span></h3><p>There are tons of ERP solutions out there, each focusing on different aspects of businesses.
