An information system (IS) is made up of 5 essential elements: hardware, software, data, people and processes. Each of these elements must be in perfect correlation with the others in order to obtain a successful IS. When this correlation is not perfect, various problems can occur in the IS.
We have identified for you 6 problems that can be caused by a bad IS:
1)     Your data is not organized:

Can you pull up customer lists from 10 years ago? Can you pull up expenses from February 2014? Is your data accessible at all times? If you answer no to these questions, then your IS does not guarantee that your data will be saved and restored. All data, especially customer data, is extremely important, that’s why you need to solve this problem as soon as possible.

2)     Your employees have trouble finding their way around:

You can have the best software, the best computer, the best processes, but if you have trouble using them properly, you don’t get the full benefit of their potential and they are not useful to you. That is why a good IS must take into account the people who will use it, in order to produce a solution that is attractive, understandable and easy to use.

3)     You waste time:

Time is a finite resource in the life of a business, which is why you need to optimise every second spent on it. When the resources you need are not available in a few clicks, you lose a lot of time to find them. All of this decreases your overall productivity.

4)     Your system is vulnerable to hackers and fraud:

The solutions used yesterday are not the same ones used today, and today’s solutions will not be the same tomorrow. This is the reality of the IT world. That’s why you need to regularly equip your IS with the latest technology, in order to face the cruel threat of hackers. Indeed, almost half of all cyber attacks target small businesses according to Cybint Solutions.

5)     Your system doesn’t grow with you:

As the business grows, the IS must also grow. This is not always the case, leading to a growth crisis. For this reason, your IS must also evolve.

6)     You lose money: :

According to a study by Cigref and Capgemini Consulting, 63% of companies do not use IS as a business asset. And yet when your IS is up to date and well tuned, it easily increases the productivity and profitability of each employee, resulting in a substantial gain in your finances.

So if you want to stop losing money today, let us design and maintain your information system and we’ll give it state-of-the-art tools to destabilize the competition.
