Rapid deployment: Get up and running in days, not months
One of the standout features of Paxis ERP is its rapid deployment capability. Unlike traditional ERP systems, which can take months or even a year to implement, Paxis can be up and running in just days or weeks. This quick deployment allows label converters to start reaping the benefits of the ERP system without delay.
For small businesses and independent converters, where agility and responsiveness are key, the ability to implement a system quickly is crucial. Traditional ERP systems often involve lengthy setup phases, complicated integrations, and the need for specialized IT resources, all of which can stall growth.
With Paxis, there's no need for extensive configurations. The pre-configured, industry-specific tools mean you can begin estimating, managing orders, and optimizing production almost immediately.
Fast time to value
In business, time is money, especially in smaller businesses.
Traditional ERP systems typically take months to show a return on investment (ROI) because of their long implementation periods and complex learning curves. By contrast, Paxis ERP is designed to deliver value quickly.
With streamlined operations, faster quoting, and better inventory management, label converters using Paxis can quickly see improvements in their processes. This rapid time-to-value is super important for small and growing businesses, as it allows them to focus on scaling rather than managing a complex ERP system.
Lower costs
Traditional ERP systems often come with significant upfront costs, including licenses, hardware, and IT support. For smaller label converters, these costs can be prohibitive. Paxis ERP, on the other hand, operates on a subscription model, allowing businesses to spread out costs over time and avoid large initial investments.
By eliminating the need for dedicated servers or extensive IT support, Paxis makes ERP technology accessible to businesses of all sizes. Independent converters no longer have to choose between managing their operations on spreadsheets or taking on heavy IT expenses. Instead, they can enjoy the benefits of an ERP system at a fraction of the cost.
Scalability and flexibility
For businesses that are growing or planning to expand, scalability is a necessity. Traditional ERP systems often require major upgrades, new hardware, or additional licenses to accommodate growth, making scalability expensive, time consuming and difficult.
Paxis on the otherhand, being a cloud-native solution, is inherently scalable. As your business grows, Paxis grows with you. Whether you're adding new production lines, expanding into new markets, or increasing your staff, Paxis can easily adjust to your changing needs without significant investment.
Streamlined onboarding without IT headaches
Implementing a traditional ERP system often requires a dedicated IT person or team to handle complex configurations, integrations, and ongoing maintenance. For smaller label converters, this can be a significant barrier to adoption.
With Paxis ERP, onboarding is simple and streamlined. The system is designed to be user-friendly, with self-guided training and intuitive tools that allow teams to start using the platform quickly. You don’t need an extensive IT team to manage the system because of it cloud-native architecture, ensuring that your system is always up to date and secure.
Cloud-native benefits: Access from anywhere
One of the key advantages of Paxis ERP is that it is entirely cloud-based. This means that your team can access the system from anywhere, at any time, with just an internet connection. In today’s increasingly remote and distributed work environments, this flexibility is invaluable.
Traditional on-premise ERP systems are often limited to specific locations and require complex remote-access setups. Paxis ERP eliminates these restrictions, allowing your team to manage operations, track orders, and monitor production in real time, regardless of their physical location.
