How SMBs can Leverage Cloud ERP to Continue Business During Crisis

December 30, 2020

“Three in four small-business owners are very concerned about the economic impact of COVID-19 and 38% aren’t confident in the financial future of their business.”National Small Business Association survey

With such an unpredictable scenario, you must be experiencing pains managing your business end-to-end:

  • risk losing customers, marketability, and revenue 
  • data scattered on-premise instead of on cloud 
  • unreliable VPN and remote access hindering productivity 
  • difficult keeping projects on track monitoring process 
  • remotely managing individuals and tasks 
  • streamlining sales, operations, finance processes and more… 

Is your company well-equipped to survive the challenges of COVID-19?

Small and medium businesses often require a combination of customisability, affordability, user-friendliness, and scalability — including the ability to add or remove features from solutions of your choice. Moving your data and operations to the cloud is a necessity and if you’ve been thinking about switching to the cloud, this is the perfect time to do it!

Equipped with the right tools and technologies, you can fight this crisis much better!  

1. Cloud ERP systems can be your organisation’s lifeboat in times of crisis

Are you having trouble accessing or updating your on-premises finance system? Or using VPN for remote working which disconnects frequently?

SMBs using on-premises system are furloughing staff rapidly and are even at the cusp of losing customers and revenue. It’s clearer now than never that on-premises systems aren’t reliable, and that moving to the cloud system is inevitable, as it is seamless, cost-effective, and flexible.

ERP systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central are fully cloud-based and allow you to manage your business – finances, resources, and pipelines – with a single solution.
