When you are consolidating a business project, choosing the best ERP for startups can be the key to success of your business. In these entrepeneurial projects, there is usually the preconceived idea that processes in business can be carried out manually by one person or a small team. However, it is difficult to know the growth rate that the business may have, and getting more customers means more administrative work that can be difficult for team members to undertake over time. That’s why Dynamics 365 Business Central and ERP can be very usefull.
Dynamics 365 Business Central and ERP of New Generation
Thanks to the advantages offered by the cloud and the packetization of services, the new generation of ERP on the cloud can reach small and medium sized businesses in different sectors who can now benefit from all of the potential of the core of Dynamics NAV in the third generation of Microsoft ERPs: Dynamics 365 Business Central.
The Best ERP for Startups
The main objective of an ERP is to help companies with their daily business processes. Although startups are typically small businesses, this doesn’t mean they should opt-out of using an ERP. An ERP for startups can be beneficial in the sense that it contributes to creating good business practices. Below, we are going to try and analyse why Dynamics 365 Business Central is the most suitable ERP for startups.
Regulate Your Monthly Costs with Dynamics 365 BC
Business Central is a SaaS product (Software as a Service), so you can regulate on a monthly basis how many product licenses you need and therefore scale costs each month depending on the finance forecast. This enables you to scale your expenses and be more flexible in your day to day work.
Without Investment in Infrastructures
Most startups don’t have the necessary IT resources to be able to implement, manage and maintain an ERP on their own servers. Business Central is stored on the cloud and, therefore, you don’t have to invest or maintain hardware infrastructures.
Furthermore, in terms of the rumours as to whether the cloud is secure or not, we believe that the cloud is more secure than most local solutions. Why? Part of the answer rests on the regulations that have been established to guarantee cloud security. Most of the implementations on local servers are not independently audited or certified, so it is difficult to evaluate the state they are in.
Organic Growth of Your Business (Central) and ERP
Business central adapts to your growth rate. You can start with the basic features which enable you to carry out your day to day work, with the confidence of knowing that, when you grow, all of the features of the product will be there for you, without increasing the price of the license.
In addition, so you can work more comfortably, you can adapt each user’s work area, so you only give them the direct accesses to their tasks, and therefore avoid them having all of the features offered by an ERP and they will be more productive.
Update Without Cost
Dynamics 365 Business Central is committed to launching updates every 6 months and the positive thing is that you will be able to enjoy all of the developments automatically and without your licence increasing in price.
Increase Your Productivity
Being productive is important for all businesses, regardless of the number of employees. However, for a business who wants to make an impact, being productive can be the key to success of the business. Business Central will help you to organise your data, avoid duplicating data and simplify complicated tasks so you can centre your efforts on making your business project grow. In addition, being stored on the cloud, you will be able to access the data from your ERP anywhere and from any device.
We must not forget to mention the integration possibilities that exist between Business Central and Office 365. You will be able to carry out a large number of tasks relating to the management of your business easily and quickly without leaving your email.
Analyse Your Results
Dynamics 365 Business Central incorporates the Dynamics NAVanalysis by dimensions which enables you to analyse your company’s data. You will be able to decide on what lines you want to analyse the results of your business. For example, if you have more than one office, you may be interested in analysing results by delegation or by type of service.
