Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

ERP systems solve the silo problem with a centralized approach. An ERP system creates a single database. By consolidating data, a company can avoid the problem of having multiple versions of the same thingfor example, storing data about a customer in two silos and not knowing which customer data is correct. ERP systems provide a set of industry-leading processes that are well integrated with each other.
