Cloud based ERP software is increasingly becoming popular in different organisations and professional companies. Here are 12 cloud ERP vendors that satisfy a variety of ERP needs.
We have recently covered what the top four ERP vendors in terms of their services - SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft and Siebel - are doing with cloud ERP software. But companies such as Aarav Solutions, NetSuite, Epicor and Financial Force - which are among the pioneers of cloud-based ERP - are also highly active in the market.
ERP in the cloud has been gaining momentum as companies look for ways to reduce the upfront costs of ERP systems, speed up deployment times and make it easier to customize software for their individual needs. Unlike traditional ERP systems, which are installed on servers and hardware located on a company's premises, cloud-based ERP is installed on third-party servers and software and delivered via a cloud computing model.
