The amount of data stored on the internet alone is approximately 4.4 zettabytes. Most of these figures refer to data from individuals, although there has been a notable growth in the use of cloud computing technologies by companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the adoption of working from home, remote access to ERP systems is no longer the exception, but the norm. This reality, combined with the current economic situation, has led to a trend towards the adoption of ERP systems in the cloud, which promise to simplify their use while reducing costs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you're an entrepreneur, planning and managing your company's resources is basically vital. That's why the ERP system, which used to be a technology reserved for large companies, is increasingly being used by small and medium-sized national companies, in a commercial model of payment per user, per month.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enterprise Resource Planning is a widely used tool for managing various processes and areas. It can, for example, improve business communication because it links different departments of the company with their respective information. From this correlation between areas, it is possible for the manager to have a centralized and, at the same time, specific view of each of the company's areas.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personnel management, customers and suppliers, product demand, finance, purchasing and sales are just a few examples of areas that ERP can organize.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As it is divided into three categories: application, database and management, it facilitates the flow of processes and communication, which gains agility.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Gaining flexibility with cloud ERP<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ERP in the cloud is a software service (SaaS - software as a service): the model guarantees that company information will be handled and saved securely in the cloud, via the Internet. All you need to access it is a computer or device with internet access, and some ERP system modules can even have mobile applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company outsources all IT infrastructure needs and a package of hours for integrating and parameterizing the ERP system, which is necessary to adjust the software to each company's business needs. The cloud ERP can also store electronic invoices in an indexed and secure way, to guarantee traceability and legal requirements, including the LGPD, which comes into force in August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can already see that these cloud management systems are very intuitive and really do help with company management. But like any innovation, these ERPs also come onto the market full of myths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the myths about using ERP in the cloud is information security. Cloud ERP services include several layers of information security that are managed by the provider, such as firewall, VPN, backup and protection against data hijacking. It should be noted that these security layers are rarely available in environments on the customer's infrastructure, on-premise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need to rethink the information circulating around us and, yes, know which is correct and which is not.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Separate the wheat from the chaff<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In all areas there is true and false information. In order to make the right decision for your company, you need research and knowledge of each subject. It's no different with technology and information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We've listed some examples of the myths about ERP in the cloud so that you can understand them better:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not so secure in the cloud\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we've already mentioned, ERP in the cloud guarantees additional layers of protection against data leaks or hijackings. For sensitive information, the customer can choose to contract additional cybersecurity services from the cloud provider, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), password vault (PAM), protection for terminals, among others. Not to mention that these features are much cheaper and easier to configure and implement in cloud ERP than on-premise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The cost of maintaining ERP in the cloud is very high<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It's important to choose cloud ERP providers that are able to charge in local currency. There has been a lot of talk about skyrocketing costs in the cloud, but this is actually a consequence of the business model of the big international providers, which is fixed in US dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another important factor is the amount of customization and parameterization required to adjust the ERP software to your business model. These modifications compared to the \"standard\" ERP product can end up being expensive. The best practice here is to try to use the system as standard, as a rule.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Change needs should be documented and discussed with the team from a cost-benefit point of view, categorized as essential, ancillary or enhancements. Essential functionalities would be implemented in the first ERP version available (also known as a minimally viable product or MVP), and other categories implemented over time.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contract terminated, data lost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beware of cloud providers using proprietary systems: prefer ERP systems that are widely used by the market, with more than one choice of cloud software provider. Ensure that once your contract with the supplier has ended, you have access to a copy of all your data. It is also important to ensure that this data is delivered in a format that makes it possible to upload it to an alternative supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Traditional ERPs have more functionalities than cloud ERPs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not at all. As cloud ERPs have matured, they already incorporate all the functionalities available for on-premise software. An important precaution is to make sure that your cloud service provider guarantees future integration of your ERP: many providers sell simpler offers that can't integrate with other systems in the future (such as CRM and customer service systems). To guarantee the use of your ERP system in the medium and long term, opt for hybrid or private clouds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to centralizing information and being a point of convergence between various areas of the company, ERP in the cloud also allows access from anywhere, at any time, which becomes an important feature in times of home-office.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A company that has an online enterprise resource management platform is able to resolve issues more quickly and efficiently, which means an increase in productivity and competitiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost and implementation are the main differences between cloud and on-premise ERPs.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ERP in the cloud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is accessed via the internet, from an application or browser. This means that it is stored in an outsourced data center and, as it is more flexible, its payment model is also different. As it is provided as SaaS, you can pay per month, according to the modules used and the number of users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Companies with several units can connect easily. All it takes is secure internet access, so that everyone is connected to the same information base with updates <em>real time<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Local ERP\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the name suggests, the company needs to have equipment and machines that will run this application. This structure can have a high investment cost for the company, as well as occupying IT teams with repetitive maintenance and information security tasks that don't generate value for the business<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lower security compared to the cloud model, given the layers of cybersecurity included in the cloud service, as well as the possibility of contracting optional services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which one to choose?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most suitable model for medium-sized companies is ERP in the cloud, and not just because it's growing at 10% a year, as stated by research firm Markets &amp; Markets. But because it is a simpler form of management and integration and, if done correctly, more secure than on-premise ERP.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the aim of facilitating your company's journey to the cloud, SBA Edge, in partnership with iT2x, offers integrated Totvs ERP migration, hosting and parameterization services, with plans starting at R$26.65 per user.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Como garantir flexibilidade, integra\u00e7\u00e3o e baixo custo para sistemas ERP na nuvem&nbsp; Se h\u00e1 11 anos, um estudo feito nos EUA mostrou que as pessoas liam ou ouviam mais de 100 mil palavras por dia, atualmente os n\u00fameros s\u00e3o praticamente incalcul\u00e1veis. Apenas a quantidade de dados armazenados na internet \u00e9&nbsp; de, aproximadamente, 4,4 zettabytes. A maioria desses n\u00fameros referem-se a dados de pessoas f\u00edsicas, muito embora seja not\u00e1vel um crescimento no uso de tecnologias de cloud computing por empresas. Com a ado\u00e7\u00e3o do trabalho em casa, o acesso remoto a sistemas ERP deixou de ser uma exce\u00e7\u00e3o e virou a norma. Essa realidade aliada a situa\u00e7\u00e3o econ\u00f4mica atual, \u00e9 poss\u00edvel notar uma tend\u00eancia de ado\u00e7\u00e3o de sistemas ERP na nuvem que prometem simplificar seu uso, ao mesmo tempo que reduzem custos.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Se voc\u00ea \u00e9 um empreendedor, planejar e gerenciar os recursos da sua empresa \u00e9 algo basicamente vital. Por isso, o sistema ERP, que antes era uma tecnologia reservada para grandes empresas, passa cada vez mais a ser utilizada por pequenas e m\u00e9dias empresas nacionais, em um modelo comercial de pagamento por usu\u00e1rio, por m\u00eas.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; O Enterprise Resource Planning, ou Planejamento de Recursos da Empresa, \u00e9 uma ferramenta amplamente utilizada para administrar diversos processos e \u00e1reas. Ele consegue, por exemplo, melhorar a comunica\u00e7\u00e3o empresarial, porque vincula diferentes departamentos da empresa com suas respectivas informa\u00e7\u00f5es. A partir dessa correla\u00e7\u00e3o entre \u00e1reas, \u00e9 poss\u00edvel que o gestor tenha uma vis\u00e3o centralizada e, ao mesmo tempo, espec\u00edfica de cada uma das \u00e1reas da empresa.&nbsp;&nbsp; Gest\u00e3o de pessoal, clientes e fornecedores, demanda de produtos, financeiro, compra e venda s\u00e3o alguns exemplos de \u00e1reas que o ERP consegue organizar.&nbsp; Por ser dividido em tr\u00eas categorias: aplica\u00e7\u00e3o, banco de dados e gerenciamento, ele facilita o fluxo de processos e da comunica\u00e7\u00e3o, que ganha agilidade.&nbsp; Ganho de flexibilidade com ERP em nuvem O ERP na nuvem \u00e9 um servi\u00e7o de software (SaaS &#8211; software as a service): o modelo garante que as informa\u00e7\u00f5es da empresa ser\u00e3o manipuladas e salvas de maneira segura na nuvem, atrav\u00e9s da Internet. Para acess\u00e1-lo, basta um computador ou dispositivo com internet, alguns m\u00f3dulos do sistema ERP podem ter&nbsp; at\u00e9 aplicativos para celular. A empresa terceiriza toda a necessidade de infraestrutura de TI e um pacote de horas para integra\u00e7\u00e3o e parametriza\u00e7\u00e3o do sistema ERP, necess\u00e1rios para ajustar o software \u00e0s necessidades de neg\u00f3cio de cada empresa. O ERP em nuvem tamb\u00e9m consegue armazenar notas fiscais eletr\u00f4nicas de maneira indexada e segura, para garantir a rastreabilidade e os requisitos legais, incluindo a&nbsp; LGPD, que entra em vigor a partir de agosto. J\u00e1 deu para perceber que, de fato, esses sistemas de gest\u00e3o na nuvem s\u00e3o bastante intuitivos e realmente ajudam em toda a gest\u00e3o da empresa. Mas, como toda inova\u00e7\u00e3o, estes ERPs tamb\u00e9m chegam no mercado repleto de mitos. Um dos mitos para utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o do ERP na nuvem \u00e9 a seguran\u00e7a da informa\u00e7\u00e3o. Os servi\u00e7os de ERP na Nuvem contemplam v\u00e1rias camadas de seguran\u00e7a da informa\u00e7\u00e3o que s\u00e3o gerenciadas pelo provedor, como firewall, VPN, backup e prote\u00e7\u00e3o contra sequestro de dados. Nota-se que essas camadas de seguran\u00e7a raramente est\u00e3o dispon\u00edveis em ambientes na infraestrutura do cliente, on-premise.&nbsp; \u00c9 preciso repensar as informa\u00e7\u00f5es que circulam por a\u00ed e, sim, saber quais s\u00e3o corretas e quais n\u00e3o s\u00e3o.&nbsp;&nbsp; Separe o joio do trigo Em todas as \u00e1reas existem informa\u00e7\u00f5es verdadeiras e falsas. Para que voc\u00ea possa tomar a decis\u00e3o certa para sua empresa, \u00e9 necess\u00e1rio pesquisa e conhecimento de cada assunto. Com tecnologia e informa\u00e7\u00e3o n\u00e3o \u00e9 diferente. Separamos alguns exemplos relacionados aos mitos sobre o ERP na nuvem, para que voc\u00ea possa entender melhor:&nbsp; N\u00e3o tem tanta seguran\u00e7a na nuvem\u00a0 Como j\u00e1 comentamos, o ERP na nuvem garante camadas adicionais de prote\u00e7\u00e3o contra vazamentos ou sequestros de dados. Para informa\u00e7\u00f5es sens\u00edveis, o cliente pode optar por contratar servi\u00e7os de ciberseguran\u00e7a adicionais do provedor de cloud computing, como autentica\u00e7\u00e3o de m\u00faltiplo fator (MFA), cofre de senhas (PAM), prote\u00e7\u00e3o para terminais, dentre outros. Sem contar que estes recursos s\u00e3o muito mais baratos e f\u00e1ceis de configurar e implementar em ERP na nuvem do que on-premise.&nbsp; O custo para manter o ERP em nuvem \u00e9 muito alto Importante escolher provedores de ERP na nuvem capazes de cobrar em moeda local. Muito tem se falado de custos galopantes na nuvem, mas na verdade essa \u00e9 uma consequ\u00eancia do modelo de neg\u00f3cios dos grandes provedores internacionais, fixados em d\u00f3lares americanos. Outro fator importante \u00e9 a quantidade de customiza\u00e7\u00f5es e parametriza\u00e7\u00f5es necess\u00e1rias para ajustar o software ERP ao seu modelo de neg\u00f3cios. Essas modifica\u00e7\u00f5es comparadas ao produto \u201cpadr\u00e3o\u201d de ERP podem acabar saindo caro. A melhor pr\u00e1tica aqui \u00e9 tentar utilizar o sistema conforme padr\u00e3o, como regra.&nbsp; Necessidades de mudan\u00e7a devem ser documentadas e discutidas com a equipe sob o ponto de vista de custo-benef\u00edcio, categorizadas como essenciais, acess\u00f3rias ou melhorias. Funcionalidades essenciais seriam implantadas na primeira vers\u00e3o de ERP dispon\u00edvel (tamb\u00e9m conhecida como produto minimamente vi\u00e1vel ou MVP), e demais categorias implantadas ao longo do tempo.&nbsp;&nbsp; Contrato encerrado, dados perdidos Tenha cuidado com fornecedores de nuvem utilizando sistemas propriet\u00e1rios: prefira sistemas de ERP com ampla utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o pelo Mercado, com mais de uma op\u00e7\u00e3o de fornecedor do software na nuvem. Garanta que uma vez encerrado seu contrato com o fornecedor, voc\u00ea tenha acesso a uma c\u00f3pia de todos seus dados. Importante tamb\u00e9m garantir que esses dados sejam entregues em um formato que possibilite carregar esses dados em um fornecedor alternativo. ERPs tradicionais t\u00eam mais funcionalidades que os em nuvem Nada disso. Conforme os ERPs na nuvem foram ganhando maturidade, eles j\u00e1 incorporam todas as funcionalidades dispon\u00edveis para o software on-premise. Um cuidado importante \u00e9 garantir que seu provedor de servi\u00e7os de nuvem garanta uma integra\u00e7\u00e3o futura do seu ERP: muitos fornecedores vendem ofertas mais simples, que n\u00e3o conseguem integrar-se com demais sistemas no futuro (como CRM e sistemas de atendimento ao cliente). Para garantir o uso do sistema de ERP em m\u00e9dio e longo prazo, opte por nuvens h\u00edbridas ou privadas.
