ERP software : how to choose it ?

Un ERP quelque soit votre façon d'agir en cloud ou on-premise vous permet d'optimiser l'ensemble de vos processus en entreprises.

What is an ERP ?

 

ERP is a real management tool for large and small businesses alike.

The purpose of ERP is to simplify the flow of information in companies using software. There is for example the Cloud.

 

The goal :

  • Avoid repetitions,
  • Avoid mistakes,
  • Distribute responsibilities between different departments.

Each ERP makes it possible to integrate a series of modules and integration for processes and departments in companies: finance, logistics, purchasing, production, sales, etc.

 

The ERP provides a comprehensive and detailed view of actions in progress, for example customer orders, shipments, delivery to better understand the level of sales and the availability of goods.

 

Why set up an ERP for your logistics ?

 

Supply chain changes but also the constant increase in customer orders and deliveries require companies to adapt and digitalize their processes.

Digitization of points of sale, digitization of stocks and flows but also the digitization of schedules within warehouses. The implementation of an ERP is a big step forward towards the optimal digitalization of logistics processes.

 

Companies are asking for transparency and organization of data :

  • Precision
  • Strategic decisions

 

ERP : Cloud / SaaS

 

A SaaS cloud ERP is a solution installed outside the company and billed as a subscription.

 

An ERP in a Cloud solution makes it possible to pool, host and exploit data outside the organization / company. This makes it possible to find this data from A to Z via Internet access and to meet the needs of customers.

 

Cloud Computing :

This process is a model that allows direct access to demand, always via an Internet network but remotely: by your company's suppliers for example.

 

 

Who can use a cloud ERP ?

 

All companies, whether in automotive or e-commerce, for example, can use an ERP in the cloud.

This allows the company to limit their repetitive and tedious tasks which can sometimes take a long time. The business does not have to be 100% efficient, an ERP allows companies to take their marks based on logistics processes, growth, and business needs.

 

  • These applications are modular and applicable for all types of business.

 

Advantages:

 

  • Develop its own internal processes for optimization,
  • Availability on all IT devices using a single internet connection,
  • Information sharing,
  • Updating of direct information,
  • Optimization of logistics processes: rental of storage space and processing capacity, IT maintenance and telephone support.
  • Data transparency

 

ERP: communication with other applications

ERP solutions can be integrated with other applications. Each ERP has its own integration system.

 

ERP On - Premise

 

An on-premises ERP is an infrastructure that is this time physical that a company locates in these premises.

Advantages:

  • Cheaper,
  • Full control of the business, data, and security, 

An ERP solution is certainly less expensive but does not allow you to have as much flexibility on data and data sharing in real time.

Cloud or On - Premise ?

 

The cloud is an expensive data outsourcing process that allows end-to-end data flexibility. You can then secure your data while creating intelligent combinations whether in physical or in a Cloud environment.
