The ERP systems allow you to establish a minimum of control, and to restrict the accounts of your teams, by giving them only access to the operations which are relevant for their position. And if you host your ERP on a private cloud, you will have high safety guarantees, and you can be sure that all of your data are protected by your cloud supplier.

2. INCREASE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY

Expensive programs are not always the good solution. Moreover, they cost a lot of money.

If your employees repeat the same task again and again, it is a real waste of time. With a ERP system, you can delete these repetitive tasks and you or your employees will not have to double, to triple or even to quadruple data’s entrances anymore.

  • Invoice Management,
    · Inventory’s movements
    · Tax calculation
    · Production costs
    · The spending(expenses) of Credit Cards expenses, …

Today, the pace of productivity is faster than ever, thus it involves that your employees need an immediate access to the key data. With an ERP solution, leaders and other members of staff have access quickly to the precise information which they need.

The sellers should be capable of visualizing customers transactions history in the real time real and of answering their questions, without consulting another department, to improve their satisfaction and increase sale opportunities. Even better, customers should be capable of going simply on-line on their account and of posting the information.
