# Why not more services, or a standard ERP?

All three routes have a drawback. Here they are side by side, so you can choose with open eyes.

| Property                        | More SaaS services              | Standard ERP                                                                                                  | Your own system |
| ------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
| Each service solves its part    | You adapt to the system         | Built around your processes                                                                                   |                 |
| Spread over several services    | Gathered, in the vendor's model | Gathered, in your own database                                                                                |                 |
| Connections between services    | Within the system's processes   | Across the whole company, from a single data source                                                           |                 |
| Per user and year, without end  | Licences plus consultants       | Fixed project price plus fixed service agreement                                                              |                 |
| Export if the service offers it | A big and expensive project     | Everything is already on your accounts                                                                        |                 |
| Double work and many contracts  | Long implementation             | Requires a decision maker at your end and a developer: us through the service agreement or someone you choose |                 |

## Signs it fits

*   The same data is typed in several places
*   Excel holds the month-end together
*   Your own tools live beside the systems
*   The CEO or owner decides the same week
*   A key person can set aside time for review

## Signs it does not

*   A standard system works and few users complain
*   Procurement requires a larger vendor
*   So few employees that the licences hardly show
*   Nobody at your end can decide or review
*   You want a finished product with an industry guarantee
