Whether you’re thinking about getting a new ERP solution or have been using one for a while, it’s important to keep up with the latest trends. Doing so will help ensure that your business stays ahead of the game and makes the most of your ERP’s capabilities. Staying informed can help you safeguard your investment and discover new features and functionalities.

The Cloud vs On-Premises

One of the most common questions asked about an ERP implementation is, “can it be hosted in the cloud?” Despite the ubiquity of the cloud, there is still a large amount of confusion about what exactly the cloud is and why you would consider it over traditional on-premise hosting.

The cloud is a deployment option for your ERP. Basically, it means that your ERP software exists and is managed off site in a secure data centre. Cloud deployment is different to the traditional on-premises deployment of ERP. This is because on-premises deployment requires you to purchase and maintain expensive hardware in addition to the ERP software.
