  • The Guide to ERP Integrations | Handshake
    THE ERP INTEGRATION HANDBOOK Key integration considerations for wholesale distributors looking to connect their ERP systems with third party software solutions. TABLE OF CONTENTS: Introduction: Supplementing ERP Systems with Best-of Breed Solutions 2 SAP 3 Oracle 7 Microsoft Dynamics 11 Sage 15 NetSuite 19 A Note on Integrations for QuickBooks & Xero 24 Conclusion 25 | The ERP Integration Handbook | www.handshake.com 1 Ten years ago, if any wholesale INTRODUCTION: distributor were asked, “What technology are you running your SUPPLEMENTING business on?” they would almost certainly have given the name of ERP SYSTEMS WITH their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and the BEST-OF-BREED conversation would have ended there. But while ERP systems SOLUTIONS have long been touted as “all in one” solutions, companies are increasingly beginning to think about how new classes of software can impact their operations––and profits. Indeed, with the incredibly wide range of both cloud and on-premise software solutions available to companies today, the enterprise technology landscape is not as clear-cut as it was years ago. Wholesale distributors are learning how they can supplement existing legacy systems with third party best-of-breed Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions like B2B eCommerce platforms, mobile sales order management software, inventory management software, and more. These purpose-built solutions are allowing countless businesses to reduce costs and take advantage of shorter implementation cycles and quicker returns on investment. Now the challenge lies in integrating best-of-breed solutions with ERP systems to maximize ROI across all platforms. While ERP software ecosystems can be extremely complex, gaining an understanding of the options and approaches available for integration is the first step towards a solid integration strategy.

  • Market Comparison Report
    Eval-Source Market Comparison Report Which ERP Architecture Best Handles Business Change? Market Comparison Report Which ERP Architecture Best Handles Business Change? Which ERP Architectures Best Handle Business Change? Business lives in a constant state of flux, it’s the new norm. Demanding consumers, new revenue sources, and regular organizational change are a few of the wrenches that can turn a business upside down. Successful companies respond fast, adapt, and not only remain profitable, but thrive. Others are swallowed up by the change and fail. The winners rely on a flexible software infrastructure that has the capabilities to adopt to changing business practices. The right infrastructure must be business friendly and adapt swiftly to change with little IT intervention. These factors have become increasingly more important for organizations when evaluating enterprise software, as they greatly affect the total cost of ownership (TCO) and (ROI). People-centric, service-oriented businesses (such as technology services firms, management consultants, architectural/engineering firms, non-profit organizations, education/research institutions and government services) are especially affected by change, much more than their manufacturing/product-centric counter- parts. They are generally highly dynamic and complex organizations faced with such factors as governmental and regulatory compliance mandates, reorganizations and restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, business process change and financial management-driven change. Service businesses need enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions that minimize the costs and disruptions of change, but most ERPs accommodate technology change more readily than business change. Announcements of most ERP vendors are focused on supporting new mobile device options, cloud architectures, overall technology platform and software interoperability.
