The document provides information about when a company may have outgrown QuickBooks and be ready for Unanet, an alternative project-based ERP system. It lists 8 signs including: having multiple Excel spreadsheets open at once, a manual billings process affecting profits, a maturing project management discipline but lacking tools, and concerns about meeting security requirements. The document then summarizes key capabilities of Unanet for project management, financial management, security compliance, and its customer support and implementation services. Unanet is positioned as a scalable alternative to QuickBooks for growing companies with complex project needs.
