Pros & Cons

Pros
  • It digs into the nitty-gritty details of your business to show exactly where you’re losing money every day.
  • The software is flexible enough to work for a tiny startup or a massive corporation with several branches.
  • It stops managers from making "gut feeling" decisions by giving them cold, hard facts about product performance.
  • You can actually see the hidden costs in your supply chain that usually get buried in traditional accounting.
  • It helps you figure out if you should stop making a product or fire a customer who costs too much.
Cons
  • The system is only as good as the methodology and know-how you have to back it up.
  • Getting all that complex data into the system at the start likely requires a lot of heavy lifting.
  • It might be overkill for a simple business that doesn't have many products or complex processes to track.
  • You’ll need to stay disciplined with the data entry to keep the "cost-of-costing" from creeping up over time.
  • It focuses heavily on costs, which might lead some managers to cut capacity too aggressively during tough times.
