What it entails and how to request a demo of an ERP

The importance of choosing the right ERP for your business

Why is it so important to choose the right ERP for your company? To understand this well, let's take an example. Think of a trucking company that procures trucks designed for long distances and heavy loads, but most of its customers require local deliveries of light goods. This wrong choice affects efficiency: large trucks are expensive to maintain for short routes and light loads. As a result, the company experiences delays and resource-squandering operations.

With this example in mind, in the choice of ERP it is necessary to carefully measure each step and bet on the option that best suits your needs. As such, demos are vital to avoid mistakes. They allow users to directly experience how the system will work in their business environment, help identify potential challenges, and highlight hypothetical limitations.

In addition, choosing the right ERP can skyrocket operational efficiency and the growth of your business. By automating tasks, streamlining processes, and unifying data sources, a well-tailored ERP frees up resources and time that can be spent on more strategic activities. Undoubtedly, choosing well is very important.

What is an ERP demo?

Before tipping the scales towards a process management system specific to your business, it's crucial to understand what an ERP demo is and how it can influence the final choice. Keep in mind that these sessions not only showcase the technical capabilities of the ERP, but also provide a practical insight into how the system will integrate into your day-to-day operations.

In this regard, choosing a reliable technology partner for this stage is vital, as these experts play a decisive role in the successful implementation of the ERP. It should be emphasized that having access to the platform does not ensure, in any case, a deep understanding of it. It is the accompaniment of qualified professionals that guarantees that the ERP demo will be effective for your company. Without a technology partner who understands and understands the needs of your business, the session will become a huge waste of time.

And what are the doubts that you will be able to solve during the ERP demo? Here are some of the issues that are addressed and clarified:

• Primary operation of the tool. Learn about the essential features of ERP and get an overview of how to address specific business needs from within the platform.
• Alignment with the company's own processes. It assesses the ERP's ability to adapt to the company's unique processes and workflows.
• Integration with current systems. Visualize how ERP integrates with existing systems to ensure a smooth transition and efficient collaboration between departments.
• Interface operation and general functions. Discover the user interface and what the experience is like when using the tool. This is imperative to find out if staff will encounter a system that is easy to use and learn.
• Long-term scalability and adaptation. See if the ERP can grow with the business, adapting to changes in the scale of operations and business requirements.
• Support and training from the technology partner. Find out what level of support is offered by the vendor and what training options are available to the team. The ERP demo is a good starting point to get to know the team that is part of the technology partner.
• Implementation costs and times. Understand the costs involved in implementing and maintaining the ERP, as well as the expected return on investment. Implementation times and the mechanics of this entire procedure are also considered.
