The best system for small businesses – NetSuite Oracle

NetSuite for years it has been appreciated as an ERP solution for small businesses. Additionally, it is the first system to be fully developed in the cloud. Thanks to this, it has a huge advantage, because it is not “transferred” to the cloud and the migration and upgrade mechanisms have been created in this model. In addition, from the very beginning, the solution focuses on supporting small and medium-sized enterprises.

The SME focus, ease of use and dashboards are three of the most frequently cited product strengths in the small and medium-sized market.

The cloud approach to the system makes it a bit less flexible. It is difficult to carry out complex customizations. But if your company operates in a fairly standard business, this solution will be a great support for you. In addition, this approach can be a strong point if you are trying to standardize and scale your growing business.

Second best system for small businesses – Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central was ranked second. It is an ERP system for small and medium-sized enterprises. The product is easy to use, flexible and has the familiar Microsoft look. And that can be very attractive to small businesses. It is also a relatively tightly integrated ERP system.

One of the main strengths of Business Central is flexibility. But it can also be a weakness. Many small businesses get confused by the variety of configuration options, which can lead to challenges. Despite this, Business Central fits perfectly into many smaller organizations. IT Vision offers support in the implementation and use of “fast onboarding” methodologies, which sometimes allows the system to be implemented in a few weeks. Dynamics 365 Business Central integrates perfectly with Office 365, PowerBI and other modules from the Dynamics 365 family.
