Technology has improved beyond recognition and the target market has grown-up with the internet forming important part of most people’s daily lives. Why is it then that a number of organisations still persist with off-line or manual systems that leave them drowning in paper process?
A number of possible reasons spring to mind from the initial capital outlay to inherent reluctance to change. Exploring the capital outlay against the long-term savings gives rise to good reasoning for questioning if this is in fact a valid enough reason for continuing with the existing process, when you consider that in most cases online solutions very often provide a substantial return on investment within eighteen months.
Perhaps the hardest obstacle to overcome is a culture where an end-user is either unwilling or reluctant to change the way in which the complete their daily role. This can be easily addressed by examining how much time and effort is used in completing the most simple and complex set of tasks against a solution that requires little or no user input.
With a public that is demanding more and more services via the internet, organisations that fail to embrace online solutions to supply their customers could very quickly find themselves without any customers at all.
