OUTDATED SYSTEMS ARE COSTING YOUR OUTDATED SYSTEMS ARE COSTING YOUR BUSINESS BUSINESS
POOR PRODUCTIVITY One of the main reasons outdated systems impact productivity is that they are challenging to use. It causes employees to spend more time finding the fastest way to use the software or workarounds instead of completing their tasks. In addition, the software is often slower and prone to crashes. This causes staff to lose valuable time trying to recover their work or wait for the system to start again.
INACCURATE INFORMATION Outdated business management systems can provide inaccurate information to your employees, which leads to confusion and costly mistakes. For example, if the sales team uses an outdated system to track customer orders, they may not be aware that the inventory department is out of stock on a particular item. This could lead to clients being advised that an item is available when it is not.
LEGACY MAINTENANCE FEES Any legacy system typically requires significant maintenance costs. Often they are incompatible with newer software, which means there are additional fees to create custom integration solutions. Or, it will cost you additional employee time to transfer data from one system to another. However, potential errors resulting from these manual cut/paste entries can cause additional headaches.
ADDITIONAL HEADCOUNT Using an outdated management system often requires additional employees to maintain the software. Sometimes, you will need to hire people whose sole purpose is to keep the software up and running. This can be a costly investment for your business.
