Your current ERP solution could be hurting your company more than you know. So in order to help shed some light on what you should be looking for in a new solution, let’s take a look at 5 things that your system should give you.
EASE OF USE
It shouldn’t be a surprise that a hard to navigate system will slow down productivity. But many systems out there are difficult to use and slower than they should be. Don’t forget that many legacy systems don’t make it easy for you to get the information you need while on the go.
Your system needs to be agile while making it easy to input or find the information that you need to control your business when and where you need to take charge. Easy to navigate interfaces will help you get to the screens you need and a well-planned implementation incorporating your processes and your style of work, helps you put in place the functionality you need and automation that will save you time.
How Acumatica Can Help: Acumatica makes it easy to collaborate on PC, Mac Tablet, or Smartphone, so you can get your information on the road, at home, or anywhere else you do business. Acumatica’s interface and dashboards help you make sure the content you need is always at your fingertips, and a built-in user guide helps you learn at your own pace as your roles and responsibilities shift into the future.
PRODUCTIVITY
Keeping your employees connected is keeping them productive. When you have employees disconnected from the pulse of your company, either because they are working remotely or they don’t have access to your system for any number of reasons, they become unproductive. This causes their coworkers to become unproductive as well because they end up spending a more time connecting with their coworkers and sending or receiving status updates throughout the day.
Your ERP system needs to be able to keep everyone connected throughout your day, whether they are in the office or not. This will ensure that needed information is always in the hands of the people that need it, and help them stay on task, cutting down time spent wasted on status meetings and other catch-up sessions.
How Acumatica can help: Acumatica’s cloud-based SAAS system gives you and your employees the ability to access your companies information from anywhere at any time, on a computer or mobile device that is connected to the internet. Using Acumatica’s web-based interface through any standard web browser or Acumatica’s mobile app is the easiest, and most efficient, way for your employees to access data through their normal day to day activities, making it easy for them to get the job done no matter where their duties take them.
FLEXIBILITY
Your company is unique. What you do, and the way you do it is important to how your company performs. We at Cortekx understand this and want to help you find a solution that can be as unique as you need it to be so you don’t have to try and squeeze yourself into the same box that everyone else tries to fit in.

REAL-TIME INFORMATION
Getting your information when and where you need it is obviously important to run your business. Not having the right information is basically the same thing as running into a pitch black room with an angry tiger, not a fun time to say the least. In order to make sure you see the dangers that lay ahead, your system needs to work as fast as you do, and you need to be able to use that information in ways that are actually helpful.
Your system needs to take the information that you give it and help you make sense of everything. Useful dashboards and drill down capabilities should make finding the information you need painless. And you should be able to do what you need to do from anywhere that you work, at any time, from any device.

ABILITY TO CONTINUE GROWING
Your ERP system should not dictate how you run your business, it should enable you to continue growing the company that you worked so hard to make as great as it is. Don’t let your outdated or slow system hold you back from expanding into the new age.
Your ERP system needs to give you the ability to add your entire team into the conversation, without the fear of adding onto the price tag. You need a system that will adapt as your company grows, and you need a system that will help you improve cash flow by removing errors.
