Products aplenty but choose the right ERP for SMEs

THE leading players in the SME segment are keen to increase operational efficiencies, increase labour and capital productivity, reduce fixed and variable cost and integration with the implementation of effective ERP system in their organizations.

The pressure from large Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) to streamline their supply chains is forcing SMEs to streamline their operations and drive the demand for ERP in the SME sector.

As per some latest survey 50% of small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) have yet to deploy enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions because of concerns about the level of resources required to make such an implementation.

Most of the time SME segment is ignored by large software firms. But this attitude has ultimately helped competitiveness among local ERP vendors which turned out to be a blessing in disguise for the SME segment. Lately there are numerous quality ERP products made their entry into the market which are affordable to SMEs.

There are also other reasons for the bigger players avoiding the SMEs. The level of customization and the work demanded by the SMEs sometimes appear to be too much for a bigger player. So when it comes to the question of SMEs it takes a great deal of time for them to understand the business and design software programs based on modality. On the other hand small ERP vendors are genuinely get involved with these SMEs and understand their needs. This helps them to develop and implement a solution which will be suitable not just only for their needs but also will fit into their budget,

Sometime there comes a big dilemma for companies evaluating ERP solutions because they are unsure of choosing software offered by a branded player or a small player. Some companies debate that only a branded player can satisfy the requirements even though the recipient is a small concern. It is not true. What one must understand is it really makes no difference as long as the software and vendor suits all the requirements.
