ERP and CRM solve different problems. Learn the difference and how to decide where to start.
ERP and CRM are often mentioned together, but they focus on different sides of your business.
What a CRM does
A CRM manages everything customer-facing: leads, deals, follow-ups and support. It helps you sell more.
What an ERP does
An ERP runs your operations: accounts, inventory, purchase, production and HR. It helps you operate efficiently.
Where to start
If leads are slipping through the cracks, start with a CRM. If stock, billing or reporting is chaotic, start with ERP. Many businesses eventually connect both.
