Microsoft Access is a great way to get a process off the ground. But the same file that started as a quick fix can quietly become a liability as your team grows. Here are five signs to watch for.
- It lives on one PC, and only Bob knows how it works. That is a single point of failure.
- People email copies around. Once there are three versions of the file, you have lost your single source of truth.
- It locks up when more than one person is in it. You have outgrown Access’s concurrency model.
- It is slowing down, corrupting, or hitting size limits.
- No backups, no audit trail, no mobile access.
So what should you do about it?
