If you’re spending a fortune to maintain your on-premises ERP system, you should think seriously about upgrading to a cloud ERP. Despite what you may believe, implementing a cloud ERP doesn’t have to be hard, take forever and break the bank. The key is finding the right cloud ERP.
Modern cloud ERPs like Wiise are helping Aussie businesses break free from the limitations of their on-prem systems and enjoy greater flexibility, enterprise-grade security as well as save on costs. Here are seven compelling reasons to upgrade to the cloud.
The on-prem ERP game is a costly one. Maintaining servers attracts significant ongoing costs as does every major and minor IT request. With no infrastructure to maintain, cloud ERPs reduce your IT costs dramatically. But choosing a fully managed service like Wiise means your ERP vendor looks after upgrades, customisations and hotfixes for you—at no extra cost and without disrupting your business.
Without timely updates, legacy ERPs that are no longer supported can force a business to keep doing things the old way. Award-winning cloud ERPs in the market today are leveraging innovations in AI, machine-learning and the Internet of Things (IoT) to give businesses serious competitive advantage. An impressive product roadmap is often a great indicator of the features and integrations an ERP company might be working on.
Because ERPs house your most critical asset, your business data, it’s important to choose an ERP that you can rely on. Wiise is built on a trusted Microsoft platform and is supported by Microsoft’s global team of network engineers, security specialists and solutions architects so you get practically no downtime. In fact, any less than 99.5% uptime and we'll discount your invoice.
Maintaining your own server and using multiple systems that don’t talk to each other can leave you vulnerable to security risks. Cloud ERPs synonymous with trust and reliability are ISO certified and audited regularly to ensure they can continue to offer small and rapidly growing businesses the levels of security they would struggle to implement themselves.
