ERP means Enterprise Resource Planning, because its most important function is to manage your business resources. The objective is to make your processes faster and your daily business easier. To achieve this, the ERP software connects to each of your company departments - from the warehouse to sales and controlling - and brings all of the data together. Thus, relevant information is available to you centrally and transparently at all times. Your advantage: You can efficiently control and automate your processes and scale your business without limits.

For companies that value growth, automation and flexibility, an ERP system is a must. The sooner you decide to use it, the more you will benefit from its advantages. Even if you have your business well under control with Excel sheets at the moment, the administrative effort grows rapidly with increasing turnover - at the expense of your efficiency. Even established companies that want to breathe new life into processes that have become sluggish and that are ready for the trends of the future cannot do so without an ERP.

In essence, the internal processes of online stores differ little from those of local stores. Here, too, inventories are constantly changing. Orders need to be fulfilled, and income and expenses need to be properly recorded. With the help of ERPs, all these processes can be controlled - and more. In this way, they are a useful addition to your e-commerce business.

An ERP is primarily used to control and automate internal company processes, while a CRM (customer relationship management) system primarily covers sales, marketing and customer management. By definition, the two do not mean the same thing. Xentral combines both areas into one business operations software that allows you to centralize your entire business.
