Which ERP system is better: ready-made or custom?
Before you get into ERP development, it’s essential to consider all the crucial differences between ready-made and custom ERP solutions. Let’s analyze which ERP system is better in terms of scalability, cost-effectiveness, and deployment time.
- Scalability. Both types of software are designed to be scalable. However, since the ERP system is tailored to your business needs, you should choose software that will allow you to quickly adapt to changing business needs and include only the features you need.
- Cost-effectiveness. A ready-made ERP system is cheaper than building a custom version. However, you will have to pay a yearly subscription fee and expect extra charges that can emerge in the long run.
Deployment time. The package of ready-made ERP software includes many support services, so you can easily handle any difficulty. However, if you decide to create your own ERP software, you need to consider this factor beforehand and find a vendor that provides deployment and support services.
