Advanced ERP systems resolve significant business problems related to sales, finance, HR, accounting, marketing, e-commerce, and procurement. They make businesses easy to manage, customize, and expand as per various business requirements. On the other hand, the decision to deploy a specific ERP system matching your specific business needs, high ERP costs, and licensing make the ERP implementation a rigorous and thoughtful process. All these are significant decisions, and you will not want to take them in a hurry. So be cautious about considering all these. But wait, we have a solution against high ERP costs, licensing, and customizing ERP systems. The answer is Open Source ERP Systems.
Let’s discuss five key reasons you should deploy Open Source ERP Systems:
- No Licensing Required and Independent Decision-Making: You do not have anything to pay for licensing, recurring fees, renewals, and updates because the software model gives licensing rights to whoever installs and downloads it. Open Source ERP systems also do not bind you to long-term contracts, unlike traditional ERP manufacturers who take away your freedom and vendor-independence. So, work freely without paying fees for updates, licensing, and renewals.
- Customization Access: You can easily customize the Open Source ERP solution as per your business needs, or you can outsource to a third-party for customization. The point is the decision about customization is all yours.
- Cost-Effective: As compared to buying ERP systems from traditional manufacturers, using open source ERP models are way more cost-effective and affordable for all businesses, including medium and small. The ERP used for business ease and management does not remain a luxury anymore.
- Easy Interaction with Clients: You do not need to rely on external platforms for discussion forums, chat options, industry news, and feedback for coordinating with your clients since open source ERP solutions have them all already installed.
- Maintenance and Upgrade: Again, as a business owner, you are all free to maintain and update your specific ERP model whenever you want, depending on your plans to fix existing bugs or expand in future.
So, as you have read, open-source ERP systems are all about less-cost, vendor independence, business freedom, and easy maintenance. If you want to deploy such an open source ERP system, contact us, and we will implement it for you, as we are Odoo ERP experts.
