High customization – likely created specifically to match your business processes.
High scalability and extensibility. The system grows together with your business.
Large number of integrations – multiple systems working together to perform a variety of tasks.
Data Portability. You can extract the data stored in the system for other purposes.
High security and robustness. Enterprise software systems are typically equipped with several layers of security (e.g. two-factor authentication, multiple user roles, and encryption).
