SAP B1 : A perfect ERP tool for SMEs in UAE

There are a lot of specific factors and challenges that become constant headaches for SMEs, these issues may range from cash flow management to being compliant with international and local regulations to a simple hiring process. Without a proper solution aid, these issues can snowball into really challenging situations and can make you lose your sleep.

Being associated with the enterprise business solution industry for a long period of time and with the experience of working with many small and medium businesses across industries, we have understood the exact operational challenges catering to even the tiniest detail. We know the SMEs have the same operational challenges as say a big organization. The need for them is one integrated tool that can handle all their challenges and can operate among distributed teams across any geographical boundaries.

Fitting to everyone’s purse

As I mentioned earlier, the one thing that pulls back SMEs from approaching SAP-based solutions is the thought that it would be highly expensive. Well, that is a misconception, SAP B1 is actually a highly affordable Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that can solve a lot of your business-related issues by connecting your entire operations through one integrated solution. It is a cost-effective solution that connects all key processes in your business, and subsequently speeds up the transactions and process flow leading to more productivity and shorter delivery tenures.

Reveal what you want

The highly customizable access management to the solution can make the administrators decide which all users have access to sensitive information. For e.g. your marketing department user need not know what is happening in the production or operations department. Each user can be assigned specific authorization depending on their work profile

Keeping up with the Future

As a solution, SAP B1 is highly flexible, and we can customize it for your exact needs and wants. For e.g. some departments may need additional custom reports, some may need to remove certain features or to be added later as they increase their workforce size. In short, you don’t need to worry about whether the solution will flex according to your business growth and development. Moreover, the latest predictive analytical features in the  SAP HANA version would help you to plan your future better too.

Freedom in Deployment

Usually, we give our clients the flexibility to deploy the SAP B1 solutions either on their own servers or in a shared server or in a private cold with a dedicated server. Companies will have the freedom to select their best possible deployment end-point and SAP B1’s multi-tenant adaptability ensures you get the best performance anywhere.

Connecting the Platforms

SAP B1 offers a lot of integration tools, which can be selected based on your requirement and need. For e.g., if you are using Office 365 solutions, you can integrate Microsoft Outlook and enable users to share data between SAP B1 and MS Outlook. Such a simple hack can help you respond proactively to your customer’s queries. Besides this, there are a lot of e-commerce platforms as well where you can connect and improve your workflow.
