PHC Software Moçambique, a company dedicated to the development of management software, encourages Mozambican small and medium-sized enterprises (SMBs) to join the digitalization of their companies in stages, in order to follow the global dynamics of digital transformation.

According to PHC Software, phased investment is less costly and can be within the reach of national SMEs because "little by little, SMEs can identify the priority areas and those that most urgently need to automate their operation in order to perform their tasks with 100% assertiveness.

"A company can, for example, invest in an accounting and finance software in the first phase and, in the future, acquire a human resources management system, customer management, or online sales," reads the company's statement.

Victor Cau, responsible for business development in African markets at PHC Software, understands that the acquisition of management software involves high costs and is not applicable when companies decide to adhere to a gradual investment model.

"SMEs have the perception that investment in business management software is only within the reach of large companies, which is not true," he said, adding that in its client portfolio, "PHC has clients ranging from micro to large companies, and this alone is a factor that demonstrates the accessibility of the software it develops.

Victor Cau was speaking during the 9th edition of MozTech, Mozambique's Information and Communication Technology Fair, which kicked off on Wednesday, May 18th, in Maputo.
