Not sure that you really need an ERP system for your business? In this blog post we take a look at what an ERP system is - using Microsoft Dynamics NAV as an example -, briefly cover industry-specific ERPs, and have a look at 3 signs that you need an ERP.
What Is An ERP System?
An ERP system is a business management software solution. With such a system you can manage and integrate your company's processes and activities: Financials, Customer Relations, Project Management, Supply Chain, Human Resources, Manufacturing, and Reporting.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV
All of these different processes are brought together in one single system, bringing transparency to your business and making it easier for departments to collaborate.

3 Signs That You Need An ERP
There can be many signs which signal that it is time for a new ERP solution for your business, but here are 3 of the signs we most often hear of:
- Limited by Current Software
Perhaps your company is doing fine with a basic software solution, but if it is limiting your market expansion and ability to grow, maybe it is time to look for another solution. - Disconnected Software Solutions
If you are increasingly spending time on double-work, entering information from one system to another and asking your customers and colleagues to wait for the latest information. - Letting Down Customers
If you cannot give your customers the answers or products they need, when they need them, chances are that they will go to your competitors.
