6 Reasons to adopt Cloud ERP in 2023 So it is no surprise that many small and large companies have begun to move away from on-premise ERP systems and towards cloud-based ERP solutions to reduce costs and boost productivity. As we hurtle down toward 2023, it’s becoming increasingly clear that businesses choose to automate as many tasks as possible and retain human intervention solely for procedures that require critical thinking. Cloud-based ERP systems have multiple advantages over on-premise systems, like lower total cost of ownership, as there is no necessity to buy hardware equipment. In addition to other various benefits.

Basics of Cybersecurity: Exploit vs. Vulnerability The first step towards understanding cybersecurity is knowing basic terms like bugs, vulnerabilities, and exploits.
A bug is a software error that causes systems to function unwantedly. Software vulnerabilities are bugs that hackers can use to launch a cyberattack, whereas an exploit is a malicious code used to take advantage of the vulnerability. Let’s understand software vulnerabilities and exploits in detail, their differences, and how businesses can secure their IT systems from these security issues.

What if I wanted to see sales orders and invoices to visualize the gap? Let's make a report to cover both using another exciting feature of Crystal reports: cross-tab reports. I assume you've read the last post on single-line charts, so I'll skip over a few things and highlight the differences in reports.
