5 reasons custom software should be an option
For your next ERP, Supply Chain, or management system search.
Don’t Settle For Less
A company looks to start tracking their processes it’s because of growth
They need to expand the operations past the few individuals that helped build the company. At these times the discussion of software is one of the first things that come up. Then the hard part of finding the RIGHT software can become a scary monster. One thing for certain if the question of custom software is brought up someone will try to share a horror story they heard from someone else about vaporware, or never-ending projects. What is not shared for some reason is the same stories about all of the SAAS or off-the-shelf products that exist out there.

These standards don’t have to be added to your already-built software. In the process of building your software, the standards are built in.

The statuses are your statuses and can be added to or managed through the configuration settings of the system. All lists are editable and

Development time is implementation time.
It takes 6 – 8 Months to develop and implement most custom software ERP systems. Even less for smaller supply chain systems. Spreadsheet conversions to tracking systems average 3 months. With off the shelf, or SaaS systems it would take the same amount of time to transfer and convert data from what you have to the new system format.
