5 reasons for an ERP system
ERP systems have evolved greatly in recent years. The interface of many major packages has become increasingly user-friendly. With the introduction of ERP in the cloud, this change has accelerated. Cloud products are constantly being updated, and with modifications based on user feedback, usage is becoming increasingly intuitive. An intuitive system means that you and your colleagues can get up and running quickly and take little time to learn the system. Basic training on an ERP system really doesn’t have to take two days. With limited training, your implementation partner’s online documentation, and easy (online) support, you’ll be up and running in no time.
Every company is unique. Every company has different products, different customers, different priorities. Adjusting a new ERP system accordingly sometimes seems difficult. That’s why you need to split your unique business processes from your standard business processes. By using industry-specific templates for the standard business processes, you actually save an enormous amount of time during an ERP implementation.
Industry-specific templates
The consultants who get to work on the implementation would rather deal with the challenges your business presents than with the basic setup. And you also prefer to pay them only for what they do specifically for you; after all, consultants are already expensive enough. That’s why standard industry-specific templates give your company an edge. Tactick has developed templates for different industries and companies. Setting up a financial accounting system and configuring the general settings can be done in no time, without the help of expensive consultants. If you want very specific settings later, you can always ask the consultant to help you.
Cloud-based ERP system
One of the biggest advantages of the cloud is that you don’t need your own hardware or hosting. If you decide you want an ERP system in the cloud – and these days there are few reasons not to – you can get up and running quickly. You don’t have to purchase additional servers for your database, install a program on several PCs, or maintain or refresh outdated versions of the system or servers. All you have to do is request the licenses for your users from an ERP partner. They will then set them up for you with the vendor, after which you can immediately log into your new environment.
