Is Your Business Running on the Latest ERP Technology?

Keeping up with the latest tech has become exceptionally important. Especially since the start of Covid-19 which has most certainly increased the urgency towards digital transformation. Thankfully, these days there are solutions available for businesses of all sizes and in a variety of industries.

With that in mind, it’s equally important to ensure you stay current, even if you have the right software in place.

When last did you check the functionality and performance of your ERP or business management system? Especially compared to industry expectations, what your competitors can do that you might not be able to do yet or have you perhaps assessed your level of efficiencies, costing and so forth.

If your software does not meet current technology demands, you have the choice to upgrade to a new version or replace your system entirely.

Do you need to upgrade?

Staying current with your industry-grade ERP is key. If your business is familiar with IQ Retail’s various solutions, it is a good idea to check if you are due for a system upgrade.

Under our Service and Update Agreement, clients are entitled to the full range of upgrading services and support to the latest technology available for that specific system. You may be already eligible for this upgrade under your existing contract, so you don't have to invest outright in a new ERP solution.

It's preferable to regularly verify the Service and Update Agreement to ensure that your business benefits from future product upgrades and tech support. IQ Retail continuously performs system updates on its solutions to ensure we meet the industry's fast-paced demands.

We have recently released major upgrades to our software platform to offer a more streamlined and integrated management experience, based on cloud technology and it’s much faster and more efficient than some of our legacy solutions. Modular solutions, such as payroll or POS software, can be fully integrated with the rest of our business management software.

New to ERP software?

As a retailer, distributor, franchise or any other business for that matter, your operations' management will require advanced inventory management, accounting, supply chain, point-of-sale and much more.

Run-of-the-mill ERP software solutions will need additional process integration and customisation to meet all the demands of a business’ various operations, or it might not be fully integrated meaning you may still need to add various systems or solutions to gain access to all the functionality that you require.

Our software is specifically designed to work in a retail, distributive, and hospitality environments, and conforms to industry legislation. As a business owner, you do not need to look out for separate solutions but preferably rely on a single system that integrates all processes and can be customised to your industry needs.
