SME’s (Small to Medium Enterprises) may feel that ERP is only for big companies; but this is not the case. An integrated database can expand a business and create better productivity. ERP can benefit any organisation in running smoothly.

Any business can benefit from an integrated system. Originally ERP packages were designed for larger organisations, but now companies have realised that ERP software have benefits to all business, even down to a single user system. ERP packages are now priced to fit the SME marketplace. No matter the size of a business, it will be able to benefit from an ERP system; and with fully integrated systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central being priced by the number of users, it is affordable at any size.
