ITWeb is running a survey on cybersecurity to gain a better understanding of how SA businesses are managing their cybersecurity posture. Survey sponsor MTN Business wants to find out where local companies are going for information about cybersecurity best practice, as well as the challenges they face.

To gather further insights into the utilization of CRM/ERP solutions by South African organisations, the survey poses the following questions:

What are the main challenges faced with the organisation’s ERP / CRM system?
What are the main reasons your organisation has not yet implemented an ERP / CRM system?
Does your organisation use a CRM and/or ERP system that operates as a standalone system?

By completing the questionnaire, you’ll contribute to this local research project and stand a chance to win a Takealot voucher to the value
of R3 000. The detailed results of the survey, and the prize winner, will be published on ITWeb.
