The right business software solution helps businesses reduce risk and increase ROI by helping them avoid unplanned cost increases.
When choosing a new enterprise resource planning solution, your goal is to minimize risk and maximize return on investment. To help you move through your selection process more deliberately and methodically, we have created a checklist of the top considerations for choosing ERP. We are highlighting each point in a blog series, covering one topic per post. So far we have covered:
- Complete Business Management
- Cloud Software Options
- Best Cloud Provider for Your Needs
- Easy to Use Business Software
In this installment we will talk about the importance of predictable cost of cloud business software.
Predictable cost with business software helps you reduce risk
If your revenue sees seasonal fluctuation then paying unpredictable costs for IT systems creates a higher degree of risk. If you are a start-up or growing your revenue base in a new market, the risk of hidden fees and unpredictable costs is amplified. With the right systems you should not have to worry about unpredictable IT-related costs for deployment, operation, scaling, maintenance, and upgrading.
Predictable monthly pricing is one of the main drivers behind adoption of cloud, so rule-out companies that don’t include upgrades, maintenance, and updates in their pricing structure. And be mindful early discounts that that increase in a year.
A business solution from myGPcloud offers cost predictability you can count on
With fewer surprises you can budget ongoing expenses more accurately and with more confidence, and your business is shielded from disruptive, even dangerous, cost fluctuations.
It’s critical for you to learn what the costs will be for implementation services, maintenance fees, training, and upgrades. In many cases, just getting an ERP system up and running is very costly, and often comes with many surprises and risks. Because myGPcloud is easy to set up, you reduce the need for in-house IT staff and external technical support resources, especially since myGPcloud offers guided walk-througsh and video demonstrations to help all of its users learn the system and set it up. This greatly reduces the risk of failure, and gets you up and running fast without unexpected costs or fees.
