While tech headlines tend to focus on the shinier topics—AI, automation, the metaverse—ERP remains a foundational concern for companies worldwide. Adapting to changes in how ERP is defined, connected to other solutions, secured in today’s highly digital environment, and supported on a hybrid platform will be critical to enabling the business to thrive and grow.
Gartner® research suggests:
“By 2024, at least 50% of existing ERP megavendor clients will evaluate multiple vendors rather than automatically adopting the latest versions of incumbent ERP suites.”[1]
“In the composable ERP era, profound changes will be required within organizations — therefore, CIOs must develop different mindsets to support those.”[2]
