by | Jun 20, 2018

An ERP (aka Enterprise Resource Planning) is a software system that takes all your operational data and organizes and reports it under one umbrella. It is a multi-faceted integrated management system, which houses everything from leads, customers/CRM, suppliers, inventory, e-commerce, CMS, sales, email marketing, marketing, shipping, accounting, and vendors. By combining all your operational data into one single platform, you will experience efficiencies and effectiveness in your enterprise by having it all at your fingertips, all in one spot.

Without further ado, here are the top 10 reasons why your business needs an ERP solution today

1.    Improvement in communications between departments

Nowadays, marketing initiatives can be dissected by management in an easy-to-use reporting interface. All sales are recorded and tallied in real time for keeping a pulse on every moment of the day by all departments. Each department can cross-view other departments and communicate issues and report on developments at the same time. Basically, everyone in your enterprise, across various departments, can now be on the same page.

2.    Improved customer service

Customer service will have every piece of data at their fingertips when dealing with customers. This will save time by providing real-time data to digest. If any issues arise, your customer service department will be completely abreast of all the details and will be able to quickly resolve them, giving your enterprise not only an added efficiency but by giving your customer a more adaptive, better quality experience.

3.    Expedited Decision Making

With an ERP solution, your management personnel will have live, up-to-date information on the entire operations of your business – and therefore; they will be able to make informed decisions instantly.

One of the biggest issues with inventory is data mismanagement.
