There was a time when managing HRMS had limited option of using ERPs available in the market at such a huge cost, which is no less than buying an expensive white elephant. To top it, maintaining it has been another challenge. Be it the infrastructure required or services of consultant’s right from implementation phase till maintenance. It has been no less than buying and maintaining elephant, which has its own limitation of its giant size with less flexibility for its users. Yes, it does come with its reputation. giant and expensive like a white elephant!
But is this worth the time, money and efforts which go into buying, implementing and maintaining it? Pain not only ends here; user cannot ignore the efforts and cost associated with its upgradations which are unavoidable due to ever changing technologies.
This question has been bothering many for good number of years including Amitabh Trivedy, founder at FlexiEle, who has been consulting for such Giant, Inflexible but reputed ERPs while working for fortune 500 companies for around 15 years. Limitations and inflexibility in architecture of such huge and expensive applications challenged his technical capabilities and inspired him to create an ERP which is ‘Giant as an Elephant yet Flexible’, hence named it ‘FlexiEle’. There was something more than just challenging the technical capabilities – CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. After spending a huge amount on buying and implementing, users struggle to customize the application as per their specific need. Every business has its own working model and the ERP should provide the solutions according to business rather than moulding the processes or features of customers as per the ERP application’s specifications. If such ERPs allow customization, it would come with additional cost along with extended timelines.
Aspiration of creating an ERP with absolute flexible and low-cost solutions could be materialized with the help of Cloud Computing and dedicated commitment of founding team of FlexiEle led by Amitabh Trivedy.
