Nowadays, it is absurdly surprising how some companies do not take advantage of modern mechanisms; on the contrary, they are left behind without making use of the valuable tools that the global market offers. In this way, a mechanism not used by most companies in the optimization of their processes is software, leaving them behind and not standing out from the competition.
Companies that consider software as part of their assets, are the ones that stand out from their competitors because they have found a way to analyze millions of data becoming information in real time. Here lies one of the main differences between a successful company and one that does not advance or fails: the latter sees software as an expense, a bad investment, an instrument that will not help it to make decisions and, on the contrary, will increase its costs, leaving less profit.
In this way, companies that have computerized applications have many more advantages because they can analyze the market more quickly, measuring when the market favors them or not; they also have greater global visibility, making their business recognized; they can report more business.
Finally, I would like to clarify that I believe that not every manual process is bad, sometimes it is necessary. However, it is precisely the software in the processes that gives the advantage to a winning company.
