A report into the future of ERP
Part 1 of 3: ERP goes to the clouds
Different Clouds of ERP:
Why Business has gone to the cloud ?
Companies today are under pressure from the economy; changing technology; changing customer, employee, and partner
expectations; and the need to compete in an increasingly complex connected global economy. To adequately respond to
these pressures, businesses are looking to use technology as the lever for and the underpinning of new, innovative
approaches to business. The cloud is a critical part of that strategy for most businesses and supports other key
technologies like mobility, decision support systems, and collaboration/social systems.

By moving ERP systems to
the cloud, companies can gain
an assortment of
technological and business
benefits. Enterprise IT is
embracing cloud-based ERP

for many reasons, including:
 Ease of deployment
 Pay for only what you use
 Quicker deployments leading to faster time to value and freeing up resources for more strategic initiatives
 More flexible and scalable solutions to provide long-term support for growth and expansion


…
The choice of public, private, or hybrid cloud is a strategic business decision and should be examined closely. There are
benefits, costs, and risks with each model as well as regulatory and compliance issues that vary by industry.

When companies look at the cloud, there are many factors that influence the decision to move all or some of their
applications to the public cloud.
Highlights the top 5 drivers in terms of choice

Cloud Software 2012–2016 Forecast and 2011 Vendor Shares.
SaaS & Open Source ERP
Increasingly in today’s marketplace companies are turning to web-based and SaaS services in which a third party hosts

the application. The underlying software driving the SaaS solution can be either commercial or open source.
Salesforce is an example of a commercial solution that supplies both software and services and supports itself by
charging for software, services, configuration, training, and customizations.
In the case of open-source software, a SaaS solution is only available through service providers who charge for the
providing services that can range from simple hosting to full application support.

SaaS and the Cloud
SaaS ERP and Open Source
Open source is estimated to account for
approximately 1.5% of the total ERP

among various proprietary commercial
solutions. Recently, however, more open
source ERP solutions have matured.
