How Disparate Systems Negatively Impact Your Business Productivity?

When you first start off with your business, you probably don’t have much knowledge about it. You simply start with a basic accounting system and spreadsheets. As your business starts maturing, you bring in CRM (Customer Relationship Management), inventory management, project management, and the list goes on. As the time passed on, you’re running the business with 10 or 15 disparate systems. These disparate systems will only get worse over time, and eventually they will kill your business outright. The reason being your employees continuously have to switch between the systems to accomplish their tasks. This isn’t the end of the worries.

Some of the key issues resulting from disparate systems

Expensive and complex:

Adding systems that aren’t meant to communicate with each other will make your IT landscape complex. Monthly subscription, perpetual licenses along with costs related to upgrades, maintenance, and IT teams can be surprisingly high. Moreover, you’ll need more sophisticated IT resources to properly manage and maintain your technology stack.

How Disparate Systems Negatively Impact Your Business Productivity

Data silos:

When companies operate with IT ecosystems made up of a wide range of applications, systems, databases and microservices, they lack actionable insights. Pulling data from multiple systems and combining it into something that makes sense can be very time consuming and challenging. It means that actionable insights get missed, information gets lost, and your operations can’t run as smoothly as possible. Long term, data silos can lead to major failings.

Major productivity problem:

Productivity can often be dependent on how well your systems work. When data is stored across multiple systems, business users have to juggle from one system to another to get correct data. Toggling between systems not only negatively impacts productivity of business users but also doubles your data storage. This means you’re losing on both sides.

Lack of real-time visibility:

Data stored across disparate systems makes it nearly impossible to gain a complete and accurate picture of your deals. If your team doesn't have the data to hand, it cannot utilize it to make data driven decisions.
