    Why custom software?
    Michael Ayvazyan

    1. The ERP Myth: Why It’s Not a Complete Solution

    Many executives assume ERP systems meet all business needs—but the reality is far more complex.

    Many executives believe that purchasing an ERP will cover all of their company’s needs. This couldn’t be further from the truth. While ERPs provide core business functions, they often require additional tools to handle critical processes. Without these add-ons, businesses face inefficiencies, data silos, and operational gaps.


    2. The Hidden Costs of ERP Add-Ons

    AP processing, inventory management, reporting—each add-on adds cost and complexity.

    Most ERPs require various third-party add-ons to function effectively, including:

    • Accounts Payable Automation (e.g., SquareWorks, Tipalti)
    • Inventory Management (e.g., High Jump)
    • Advanced Reporting (e.g., Power BI)
    • Middleware for System Integration (e.g., Boomi)
    • Project Management (e.g., Jira)
    • Help Desk Ticketing (e.g., Zendesk)
    • Tax Compliance (e.g., Avalara)

    Each of these systems has its own implementation, licensing fees, and maintenance requirements. While they offer extended support, resolving issues that span multiple systems becomes a major challenge, often requiring additional IT resources.


    3. The IT Burden: Managing a Web of Disconnected Systems

    Third-party support is fragmented, leaving businesses to handle cross-system issues on their own.

    When multiple software systems must pass information between each other, troubleshooting issues becomes difficult. A problem affecting two or more systems is often unmanageable with third-party support alone. Companies end up needing in-house IT staff to bridge gaps, increasing costs and slowing down issue resolution.
