ERP is the central platform which can be used across the department to manage entire business operations integrated on single platform. Using different platform for different functions and operation has its own drawbacks.

1. You will not get data easily across all.
2. Manual intervention is required every time to consolidate the data.
3. Managing different software application has its own challenges for maintenance.
4. Maintaining different technological platform required lot of hardware resources as well as human resources with required skillsets.
5. The overall cost is on higher side instead of common product.
6. Advantage of having data on one roof and analytics cannot be done easily.
7. And many more.
