Risks To Be Aware of Regarding EMS Software
The risks associated with EMS software include:

- Compliance Issues: Companies are increasingly required to comply with various laws, regulations, and industry standards when it comes to customer information and other protected data. An EMS should be designed in such a way as to adhere to all applicable rules and prevent any compliance issues arising from use of the system.
- Vendor Lock-in: Companies that rely on an EMS can find themselves locked into using it unless they choose a vendor that offers flexible terms for upgrading or switching systems. This can limit their ability to take advantage of new technology advances or better pricing options in the future.
- Cost Overruns: The initial cost of implementing an EMS may seem attractive but companies should factor in maintenance fees, additional training requirements, technical troubleshooting costs, and hardware/software upgrades over time before making a decision about investing in one.
