Utilizing a cloud-based ERP software system like Blastramp can be beneficial in many ways for your brand's overall success.
In general, Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is the "integrated management of main business processes, often in real time and mediated by software and technology. ERP is usually referred to as a category of business management software—typically a suite of integrated applications—that an organization can use to collect, store, manage, and interpret data from many business activities."
ERP systems can either be local based or cloud-based like Blastramp is and the latter is becoming increasingly popular. A cloud-based ERP software is hosted and managed offsite in the cloud by your vendor. Cloud-based ERP software systems can be used for your accounting, procurement, project management, risk management and compliance, sales, and fulfillment needs. Such a system lets you manage all your business operations in one central location without paying for multiple applications and worrying about data duplication.
ERP systems usually feature these following characteristics:
A cloud-based ERP software also deploys automatic updates so you don’t need to worry about falling behind on the latest trends. This is one of the great advantages of using a cloud-based ERP software and lets you build a competitive advantage as your market continues to grow.
With that in mind, we’re going to dive a little deeper into some more key advantages of cloud-based ERP softwares.
Cloud-based ERP systems let you focus on your core business needs without needing to worry about time consuming updates. Blastramp’s cloud-based ERP software team is always adding new updates and upgrades to make sure you’re ahead of the competition. “We switched over to Blastramp almost a year ago and it has totally transformed our business and workflow.” says Amanda Thomas, Owner/Designer of LUV AJ.
Our cloud-based ERP software is not only easy-to-use, it's also affordable. We offer scalable service levels that can be added as your brand grows. And, our uncomplicated monthly plans aren't restricted by a contract. Cloud-based ERP systems like Blastramp can be implemented much faster than traditional onsite ERP systems. When you use an onsite ERP system you have to consider ongoing maintenance, database creation and management, initial implementation, IT staffing, energy costs, and security and backup. With a cloud ERP, the vendor takes care of all of that for you.
With a cloud-based ERP software system, there’s no need for selecting and purchasing hardware, training IT staff, potentially hiring more people,and implementing new data security protocols. A cloud-based ERP software system lets you access information in a timely manner and gives your team a powerful tool to achieve all your business goals.
Delays in communication can happen. But Blastramp’s cloud-based ERP software can help alleviate this by synchronizing across all of your departments to give you full control — ensuring nothing ever gets lost in translation. Here’s how Get Inertia has benefitted from using our software: “Using Blastramp WMS software has drastically improved the efficiency of our business.”
Our cloud-based ERP software provides real-time stock lists and instant access to customer details to bring your brand to a new level. Blastramp offers amazing search capabilities to help you quickly identify and review available products to sell. In addition, Blastramp’s cloud-based ERP software has multiple API's that integrate with Shopify and other order collecting sites. “The visibility and ease our team now has to process orders and manage inventory has saved us countless hours of work and juggling shared spreads to keep track of everything." says Amanda Thomas, Owner/Designer of LUV AJ.
Cloud-based ERP software systems are easier to scale and also take less work to customize compared to traditional ERP systems. On-premise ERP systems may run into issues when updates are needed because of how they were set up initially in-house.
