An ERP Solution helps you overcome these challenges and move forward… You can go for On Premise ERP (traditional) or Cloud ERP

But a traditional ERP poses these challenges… •
Huge initial investments on license, hardware, infrastructure, resources and implementation
•
Ballooning deployment costs ranging from 9000 SGD to 450000 SGD depending on the degree of complexity and customization
•
Additional costs on implementation, installation, and data migration is 3-4 times more than the original cost of the ERP package
•
Unreasonably long implementation time ranging between 8 and 18 months, with 60% of implementations overshooting project time by over 50%
•
Unwanted functionalities imposed as additional baggage with 70% of the companies use only 26% of their ERP functionalities
•
Rigid model that forces changes in business models with changes in market conditions and makes exit a complex process
•
Maintenance - Tedious job of deployment for each new product version
•
No guaranteed ROI
