Analyst Report: The Benefits of Cloud ERP

The most compelling reason to move to cloud ERP is business transformation.

For example, some cloud ERP users have reported that they can easily scale their business, and experiment with innovative business models, due to the flexible capabilities of their software.

At first, the cost savings are compelling, Aberdeen's SaaS and Cloud ERP Trends and Observations: Is Cloud ERP Right for You? found that organizations with ERP stayed within their budget as compared to 12% over budget for those with an on-premise solution.

Also, organizations with cloud ERP achieved ROI within 24 months as compared to 31 months for on-premise users.

However, cost savings are just one of the reasons organizations may consider a cloud ERP solution.

For growing organizations that want to use ERP as a multi-tiered strategy, cloud ERP is now a compelling option.

Two key reasons to consider the cloud as a vital solution include lower capital expenditures and a significant decrease on IT cost.

However, selecting an ERP is about more than just cost savings.

Cloud solutions have many other unique benefits that are making them particularly attractive.
