What are the limitations of ERPs?

With as many benefits as an ERP provides, they do have some challenges and limitations. While the cost has come down, installing a new system requires a large commitment. The upfront cost is sure to be recouped over time, but some companies find it difficult to justify the initial expense.

ERPs also have some limitations in the types of reports that can be produced. Usually, the reports are created as an Excel file. From there the reports need to be individually customized or modified to work properly in each department. As the reports are worked on, the chance for error and mistakes increases as well. These reports can also take an extended period of time to be generated.

The purpose of the Synoptix software utilities is to overcome the limitations and drawbacks of ERP systems. Our software can work in connection with almost any ERP system.
