Why Switching ERP Software Is Difficult
Many users find it extremely difficult to change ERP software. In fact, several companies have found that they aren’t even able to take orders or ship merchandise for a period of months after they switch to another ERP software. For some, this has resulted in the downfall of the company.
Part of the reason why switching ERP software is so difficult is because every ERP software product works differently. Over the years, your internal processes became adapted to your current ERP software’s operation procedures in an organic way. No matter how carefully you plan your conversion process, you will inevitably miss something, and sometimes the consequences can be disastrous.
A Solution From The Same Family
Luckily for Macola Progression or Macola ES users, you have an alternative with Elliott Business Software. Elliott Business Software was originally derived from Macola. Therefore, if you know Exact® Macola, you already know Elliott. Furthermore, Elliott’s conversion utility will make your switchover much easier. Since Elliott come from the same family as Exact Macola, you will find that most of your current operations will be supported by Elliott, which significantly reduces the risks involved in the conversion.
A Cost Effective Solution
In addition, all the time invested in training your personnel will be carried over for the most part. This kind of “soft cost,” considering the mistakes your personnel may make with the new ERP system, is actually a lot higher than the investment you made in the ERP software itself.
