In addition, businesses will also take security very seriously and will not compromise for it as it can go over wrong hands and can be detrimental for business.

 

2. Features Over Easy of use

Several enterprises have started to acknowledge the fact that there is no effective use of ERP rather having it with its user-friendly and flexible nature. Cost savings are important but it is useless when the ERP system doesn’t provide the required features. Many businesses switch to cloud ERPs as it seems a cost-effective option. It lacks features that a business wants and that is becoming the reason businesses are replacing their cloud ERPs. The ERP selection will be based on functionality rather than its costs and ease of use. Because it is still important to assess an ERP system based on your company’s requirements and completely test its features to check if they meet your goals or not.

3.Business Intelligence

Business intelligence and big data analytics are becoming more popular in ERP data management and analysis. Enterprises are taking BI and data analytics tools to be important for unfolding valuable insights out of ERP data. The competition within the ERP market in 2019 will become more intense. Businesses will expect ERP systems to give them real-time insights that will be helpful for doing important business decisions. With these insights, they can find opportunities to grow their company, improve productivity and make better marketing strategies by using valuable analytics reports.

 

4. A surge in the adaptation of a two-tier ERP model

ERP vendors strive to give both back-end and industry-specific features in a single ERP system. However, ERP giants in the market offer software such as  Salesforce that leads among CRM software systems. Due to this, many ERP vendors are no longer developing systems for sales or CRM because all the needs are taken care of through a Salesforce CRM.

 

When it comes to business processes, using multiple systems isn’t beneficial for companies in terms of costs and manpower, but they prefer this option of using one system that covers only particular needs.

 

ERP buyers search for an ERP system that has all functionalities to cover their important business areas, but they fail to usually find it in one system. According to the estimates,  at least one in three buyers will prefer the two-tier model to cover their particular needs.

I hope this blog keeps you modernized about the latest ERP trends 2019.
