Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does an ERP consultant do?

• An ERP consultant helps organisations evaluate, implement and optimise enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that integrate finance, inventory, operations and reporting across the business. At Cloud Factory, our ERP consultants work closely with business leaders to understand operational processes, identify improvement opportunities and design an ERP solution aligned with long-term business goals.

By combining technical expertise with practical industry knowledge in manufacturing, wholesale distribution and service organisations, our consultants help businesses modernise legacy systems, improve operational visibility and successfully adopt modern cloud ERP platforms.

2) How long does an ERP implementation take?

• The duration of an ERP implementation depends on the size and complexity of the organisation, the number of users, integrations with other systems, and the level of data migration required. For many small to mid-sized businesses implementing cloud ERP platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, projects typically take between three and nine months from planning through to go-live.ERP implementation projects typically follow a structured process that includes discovery workshops, system configuration, data migration, testing, user training and post-go-live support. By combining certified expertise with practical implementation experience, our team helps ensure ERP projects are delivered efficiently while minimising disruption to business operations.

4) When should a business replace legacy ERP?

• A business should consider replacing legacy ERP systems when existing software can no longer support operational growth, integration requirements or modern reporting needs. Many organisations begin reviewing their ERP platform when they experience issues such as disconnected systems, increasing reliance on spreadsheets, limited visibility across operations or difficulty integrating with newer technologies. Legacy ERP platforms may also struggle to support cloud access, automation and real-time data required for modern business operations. In these situations, organisations often evaluate modern cloud ERP platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, SAP Business One or MYOB Acumatica to improve operational visibility, streamline processes and support long-term growth. Cloud Factory works with organisations to assess whether their current systems can continue to meet business requirements or whether an ERP replacement project would deliver greater operational efficiency and scalability. Many businesses review their ERP strategy when systems such as MYOB Exo, Pronto, SAP Business By Design or other such ERP platforms that are reaching the limits of their capabilities or are becoming end of life. 

5) Can modern cloud ERP systems replace platforms like SAP Business By Design, MYOB Exo or Pronto?

• Yes. Many organisations review their ERP strategy when platforms such as SAP Business ByDesign, MYOB Exo or Pronto no longer support modern operational requirements, integration needs or real-time reporting. As businesses grow, these systems can become difficult to extend or integrate with newer technologies such as cloud platforms, automation tools and advanced analytics. Modern cloud ERP platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, SAP Business One and MYOB Acumatica provide integrated finance, inventory, operations and reporting capabilities designed to support growing organisations. These platforms allow businesses to replace disconnected systems, improve operational visibility and adopt scalable ERP solutions aligned with long-term business growth. Cloud Factory works with organisations to assess their current ERP environment and determine whether upgrading, modernising or replacing legacy ERP systems will deliver greater operational efficiency and long-term scalability.

6) How much does an ERP system cost?

• The cost of an ERP system depends primarily on the complexity of the organisation and the scope of the implementation rather than simply the number of users. While cloud ERP platforms are typically licensed on a per-user subscription basis, implementation costs are driven by factors such as business processes, inventory and warehouse requirements, manufacturing operations, integrations with other systems, data migration and reporting needs. For example, a small manufacturing business with complex production and inventory processes may require more implementation effort than a larger service organisation with simpler operational requirements.

Summary

Cloud Factory works with organisations to assess their operational structure, system requirements and integration needs to develop a clear ERP implementation roadmap and cost estimate. Modern cloud ERP platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, SAP Business One and MYOB Acumatica also allow businesses to start with core functionality and expand capabilities as operational requirements grow.
