Not sure what to do about your outdated ERP? Your vendor may be pushing you to move to a newer product or a cloud version as your legacy software marches towards end of life. Should you be skeptical of the ease and benefits of moving to your existing vendor’s new product? This is one factor to consider. Another factor to consider is how much your business has changed since your original implementation and whether there is a better product that fit your business. If you have manual workarounds and customizations, then it is even more challenging to know what the best path is.

You don’t have to face this dilemma alone! On this episode of The ERP Advisor, we divulge how the specialists at ERP Advisors Group help our clients answer the age-old question: should I upgrade or replace my ERP?
