A risk that one cannot afford. A good data management system will sure that you respond to the world accordingly and stay ahead of the competition.
Reduce security risk
It is the first time in history that so much personal information is available to those that can access it. When you store people’s credit card information, personal address, phone numbers, photos, etc. it is of paramount importance that this data is protected by the best possible security. If your data is not managed properly, it can fall into the wrong hands. Data theft will also have severe implications on the growth of your
company; nobody wants to leave their details in the hands of people that do not know how to protect it.
Cost effective
If you have a good system in place, you will spend less money trying to fix problems that shouldn’t have occurred in the first place. It also prevents spending time-and money- duplicating information that already exists.
Minimal chance of data loss

Better Decision making
When everything is in its place, and everyone knows where to look for it, the quality of your decisions improve drastically. By nature, people have different ways of processing information, but a centralized system ensures a framework to plan, organist and delegate. Additionally, a good system will ensure good feedback,
which in turn will lead to necessary updates to the process that will only benefit your company in the long run.
