Use IsoVision or the Quality module of an ERP?

First of all, be aware that 95% of our customers have an ERP and yet use IsoVision. Why do they use IsoVision while their ERP offers a Quality module?

Because IsoVision offers solutions and a system far superior and more advanced than the quality management tools offered by ERP.

Why Because it’s our first mission!

Quality management is not the primary mission of EPRs. ERPs invest 98% of their improvement budget in other more critical areas of their products: finance, human resources, payroll, inventories, cost, scheduling, production, purchasing, sales, orders, receptions, deliveries, etc.

This is why the tools proposed by the ERP in terms of quality management are very basic and generally insufficient.

When you use the Quality module of an ERP, you choose a solution for which you will be less than adequately served in terms of the available functionalities, the expertise of your supplier in quality management as well as at the level of the developments future product.

As far as progressing, taking steps forward and invest time, do not settle for the quality solutions provided by ERP and choose IsoVision.
