ERP vs POS — Complementary, Not Competing

POS runs the counter; ERP runs the business — Bangladesh retailers need both aligned.

POS alone cannot run multi-branch procurement, manufacturing supply, or finance-grade consolidation. ERP alone is not a lane experience. The winning pattern connects POS at the edge to ERP at the core.

Verdict
