Locked In: The Frustration of Limited Data Export in Laundromat Management

One of the most helpful features that out current ERP(enterprise resource planning) system lacks, is the possibility to export anything other that the sales out of the system to a be able to work with the info with other software. Even the features to work with the info within the system is limited to basic things like adding, editing, or erasing data from the builtin databases.

Which limits its usefulness, since you can't use the data in the system to do things like calculate costs, or work with pricing, easily. Coming from ERP systems that had these features, this feels quite limiting.

Not that is makes it a bad system per se, it just feels that it still has more potential to give to make laundromat management a lot easier. A good thing it has for example, is that as admin I can be working on the databases changing, or adding, items without getting in the way of our operations team by having them change users every time something like that needs to be work on. Though it would be better, if could do it by being able to access just the database remotely without having to access the computer directly via a remote desktop application.

Using our system when you only have one location, is a solid 8/10 since it has almost all what one needs to manage a laundromat. It lacks some features that would greatly improve the ease of management, but as it is a set forward of having to do it by hand, or apps that aren't meant for the task.

Yet, since we have plans to expand our to other locations it time, it starts to became less useful for such management.
