Information about ERP market shares and usage.

Facts about the use of ERP systems in SMEs worldwide.

There is a significant backlog in the digitalization of ERP processes in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In particular, smaller businesses often do not use traditional and comprehensive IT solutions, leading to a significant competitive disadvantage for SMEs compared to large companies.

Moreover, problems arise from the type of software used by SMEs. Often, these companies rely on software products that were acquired and implemented in the 80s and 90s. These programs are now outdated, inflexible, and often have significant gaps in practice. In conversations with our clients, we often hear that the ERP service providers currently used by companies are now moving their solutions to the "cloud." As IT professionals, we all know that this is not the case, and these solutions need to be completely redeveloped. In most cases, this remains empty promises. In contrast, large companies rely on the very expensive solutions from SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, and Infor (with a global market share of 49%). However, these are often unaffordable for SMEs. As a result, a significant investment backlog in corporate IT arises in practice, and SMEs face the Herculean task of finding a technically innovative and simultaneously affordable ERP solution for their business.

Why an ERP system is a good investment for any business

A company should implement an ERP system (Enterprise Resource Planning) to make its business processes efficient and transparent. An ERP integrates various departments and functions of a company into a central platform, making information available in real time and preventing redundant data entries. This lays the foundation for better decision-making, as executives can access precise and up-to-date data at any time. Additionally, an ERP allows for the automation of many routine tasks, which increases productivity and reduces errors. Furthermore, an ERP system provides the scalability necessary to keep up with the company's growth and ensures greater flexibility to quickly adapt to changing market conditions. Overall, an ERP helps reduce costs, increase efficiency, and ensure competitiveness.
