Is your data correct? Why 4 in 10 SMBs have doubts.

 

We hear it often from SMBs:
Reporting doesn’t add up.
The numbers don’t feel reliable.
Decisions are made on gut feeling.

All the while, you want to be able to rely on your data to make smart choices. Yet 4 in 10 organizations doubt whether their data is accurate. Recognizable?

How does data chaos arise?

Many SMBs work with a mix of tools, folders and systems:
🔹 Customer data in the mailbox as well as in a CRM.
🔹 Files float between OneDrive, USB sticks and private Dropboxes.
🔹 Reports are created manually, with the potential for errors.

The result? Information becomes scattered, outdated or simply incorrect. And that creates frustration as well as risks.

 

The impact on your organization

If you make decisions based on wrong or incomplete data:
⚠️ Run the risk of making wrong choices.
⚠️ Costs your team unnecessary time to check everything.
⚠️ Are more likely to fail to comply with legislation such as NIS2.
