Personalization and Customization
Customer expectations are changing. Personalization is now the name of the game. Customers love it when we give them the opportunity to configure or build the specification of the product need and unique to them.
If your company operates in an environment that focuses on making products that are personalized and unique then you will have felt the challenges of creating products that meet all your customer’s specifications and requirements.
Most businesses use legacy systems and processes, or third-party applications separate from their current ERP to take care of the product configurator process. But this process has many challenges:
- The forecasting capabilities of legacy systems are low.
- Manual record-keeping takes time and limits the number of options that you can provide to your customers.
- Using a third-party configurator will create a dependency on that product and will in turn add additional costs to your final product.
In this increasingly fast-paced world, such delays may mean the difference between success and failure. Therefore, the need for a product configurator becomes paramount.
