ERP software is currently the world's leading technology solution for managing and running businesses effectively. So what benefits does ERP software bring businesses? Let's find out with SBiz.vn!
How is ERP software applied?
Industry's share has risen significantly
ERP software has become indispensable for many businesses. Today, many businesses deploy ERP systems to support management and operations. Even small businesses that had never heard of ERP are now switching to ERP software - a platform that supports business management. As a result, industry's share has risen significantly.
According to Panorama, manufacturing currently accounts for the largest share of ERP software adoption (32%). This is understandable, because with complex production processes, without an ERP system it is hard for businesses to control materials, production progress and finished goods. After manufacturing, IT & services and financial services also account for sizable shares, close behind at 18% and 17% respectively.
According to the latest Grand View report, the ERP software market is expected to reach US$48.22 billion in 2022.

ERP software is being upgraded (integrating IoT and AI)
Whereas users used to have to install add-ons to get the benefits of AI (artificial intelligence), ERP software solutions now come with built-in features users can use to process, analyze and manage information simply.
IoT (Internet of Things) provides seamless connectivity to all sensors or physical devices in the network without human intervention. ERP software integrating IoT and AI has opened up many opportunities and created competitive advantages for businesses in digital transformation.
ERP software integration (IoT and AI)
ERP systems with integrated AI and IoT can help control workflows, reduce errors and information processing time and automate complex processes, saving businesses a lot of time for other, higher-value work.
ERP software analyzes data combined from many departments and suggests improvements to internal processes. The combination of ERP, AI and IoT helps businesses save time, improve productivity, minimize manual work and see clear results after only a short period of implementation.
Monitoring, analysis and data prediction capabilities
One of the standout advantages of ERP software is its analysis and forecasting capability. ERP enables multi-dimensional data analysis of business activities, such as profit analysis based on real figures for costs, revenue, quantities sold, target customers, market share, market trends...
Just by opening the ERP interface on a phone, computer..., users can see all of their business's activities
Instead of receiving reports from departments in many different data files, you can now find reports yourself with just 1 click. This is all thanks to ERP software's ability to process big data and provide multi-dimensional analytical reports; the system is highly visual, and the charts and analysis it provides give you an overview of all business activities.
Furthermore, ERP systems help control staff work very well. Managers just open the ERP interface to see all staff results, down to the smallest figures, such as how many products an employee sold this morning, which products and how much revenue.
A comprehensive solution during the Covid pandemic
Throughout the first half of 2020, the world suffered the terrible impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, putting the global economy in free fall and affecting many businesses. So business planning and choosing the best solution are essential to help businesses survive Covid and return to the market strongly afterwards.
