Open Source Solutions for Growing Businesses
The Scenario
You are a small to mid size business. The lack of consumer activity in the current economy means that you have had to tighten your
belt across the board and cut costs even where it hurts. You and your staff are overworked, and you seem to be spending an inordinate amount of time dealing with administrative
tasks that seem to pile up endlessly. If only there was a way to streamline administrative and operational processes, you could gain more control over your time and stay ahead of the curve.
The Problem
More commonly than not, small companies use a patchwork of workable but far from ideal ad hoc solutions to manage back office
operations. It is not uncommon for example for small
business owners to spend significant time:
Processing hard copy
timesheets
Reconciling bank statements and manually performing cash flow analysis
Aggregating receivable data and developing manual invoices
Tracking vendor invoices and writing
checks
Looking
through an old rolodex to find contact information for vendors, partners, and customers
Storing critical data on desktop
computers without effective backup
Searching for files lost because of a poor file organization structure or naming
convention
Driving back to the office to get a file off the computer because it is not available from the home computer or because
of misplacing a flash card with critical data
If any 3 or more of these apply to you, your company could benefit from using open source technologies.
