The SAP Alternative: projectfacts

The SAP alternative for SMEs

When enterprise software is discussed, most people think of the market leader SAP. However, many forget that there are also medium-sized companies that sell enterprise software – and do so successfully. In these cases, implementation is usually faster and costs are more manageable than with the market leader. The target group of these companies is mostly small and medium-sized enterprises, as the systems are designed according to the requirements of SMEs. The reason why so many companies are now looking for ERP software is digitalisation. Anyone who wants to survive in competition must also go digital today. Digitalisation is therefore also subsidised by the federal states. Find out more about the topic of digital subsidies here: Digital subsidy

The great advantage of these companies compared to SAP is the less complex implementation, as well as simpler operation. In addition, one system covers everything there, whereas with SAP different systems have to be licensed and linked.

The ERP system projectfacts offers its customers a single system for all business processes, which adapts individually to the customer. With projectfacts you pay one price for the complete system, which includes all modules. If a function is not required, it can be deactivated.
