Usability in ERP solutions is about more than pretty screens with bright colors. Although an attractive work environment with a pleasurable experience is one benefit of improved usability, the real benfits for manufacturers come from the improved productivity and increased efficiency. Intuitive screens with easy-to-find, contextual information speed decision making and ensure best practices are met. Improved ease of use also helps employee engagement, reduced training required and supports agile, responsive attention to meeting customer expectations.
