MYOB Acumatica helps you thrive amidst challenges

While running a business is never easy, the last few years have been especially tough.

Economic headwinds continue buffeting businesses of all sizes, with high interest rates, fuel and utilities costs increasing the cost of doing business.

With consumers also feeling the pinch, businesses face the double whammy of weakening demand against a backdrop of higher operating costs.

In this challenging economic context, leaders must look to the future, think strategically, and identify opportunities to move the business forward.

Technology is one of the key levers business leaders can pull to drive growth. With the right software platform, businesses can achieve more with less resources — and even thrive during these challenging times.

The role of tech in business growth

Software plays a critical role in today’s global, digital economy. Beyond facilitating day-to-day processes to run smoothly, the right tech tools ensure speed and accuracy, while providing leaders visibility into their business and greater control over operations.

However, many companies are held back by their tech stack. Small and medium-sized businesses tend to run their businesses off basic accounting software, Excel spreadsheets and a few other software applications that may not integrate.

While this fragmented approach may work while a business is small, it becomes increasingly hard to manage as a business scales.

Likewise, disconnected software systems slow productivity and add to operating costs. And in tough economic times, inefficiency is especially problematic: keeping costs low and the business agile is key to survival.

ERP advanced business

What is an enterprise resource planning system?

An enterprise resource planning system (ERP) brings together all critical business management functions in a single database.

With native integrations between software modules, data flows seamlessly through the platform.

With a cloud ERP, users can access and update data in real time. With workflows digitalised and automated, tasks and activities can be system generated.

This relieves staff of administrative work, while ensuring accuracy and increasing speed of operations.

Put simply, an ERP improves efficiency and lifts productivity – making it a valuable solution for any business.
