Successfully Cloud-Enabling Enterprise Resource Planning
Agility, Features, OPEX Pricing Model Propel Demand for Cloud ERP Systems
NEW YORK, March 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloud ERP has emerged as an agile, dynamic, flexible, cost effective, and swift-to-implement alternative to traditional legacy on-premise ERP software.

New cloud solutions can go live in as little as three months; but as with cloud CRM a decade ago, cloud ERP systems are still maturing, and as a result they have not been fully embraced by the market. But the signs clearly point to more cloud ERP development, adoption, and growth going forward.
