As your business diversifies and grows in complexity, it requires more than basic bookkeeping, inventory management and backward-looking reporting. You need a complete business management or enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that takes advantage of the latest innovations in cloud computing and mobile and social connectivity.
There are several common signs your business has outgrown its existing accounting software:
- You can’t keep up with growth even with more personnel.
- You no longer have the control and visibility needed to monitor and track performance.
- You spend more time being reactive than proactive.
- You can’t support a mobile workforce.
- Customer satisfaction is decreasing because you can’t meet expectations.
If you’ve experienced any of these issues, it may be time to upgrade your business management solution.
