When ERP systems first appeared in the 90s, the number of solutions a company had to choose from was much more limited than today. If you enter “ERP” in any search engine, you’ll end up jumping from one product to another, not knowing which one can meet your business requirements better. It’s especially overwhelming if you’re about to start your first ERP implementation ever because while you know that ERP systems should help you manage and integrate essential business processes, you’re probably not sure which functionality is necessary for every part of the business. One good thing about ERP is that it’s scalable, so you can start with the most critical features and add more functionality later as your business grows and you set more ambitious goals.

Today’s consumer has many choices, and they have high expectations. They also want more flexible delivery options.
