Cloud-ERP Advantages-OneBusiness Overview
CLOUD ERP ADVANTAGES
Cloud ERP today (OneBusiness Cloud ERP) is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) software on the cloud. We host on AWS/ AZURE/ Google cloud platform, rather than on-premises (in house servers). Also, Point of Sale on the cloud is an added advantage for a retail organisation. We have taken our OneBusiness cloud ERP product to explain various aspects of a cloud ERP solution. in other words, Efficient ERP is a key factor for the success of a business.
We host OneBusiness ERP/CRM/POS/EAM software on AWS securely. This blog will explain the advantages of cloud-based application with examples from OneBusiness for a better user understanding.
The deployment of the software is the most significant difference between these two systems. The features of ERP over will remain the same. The cloud is hosting on the external agency’s servers, and you access through the web browser. We install the On-premise software locally on a company’s infrastructure. It is completely in-house and the data is under your control.
ERP INSTALLATION
The most noticeable difference between these two systems is how we deploy the software. Cloud-based software is hosted on the vendor’s servers and accessed through a web browser. On-premise software is installed locally, on a company’s computers and servers. For example, in an in house computer capable of handling the cloud ERP software would be sufficient for small scale companies.
You can keep the ERP in house, and we can interface to a business warehouse system for detailed reporting. Once again, the reporting environment can be in-house or on an external cloud. To clarify the business warehouse architecture, OneBusiness will cover the topic in a separate topic. However, other existing posts will cover as much as it could.
ERP’s like OneBusiness have so many real-time transactional reports for your everyday use. Having your ERP on cloud is advantageous if you want to implement machine learning models available on the AWS platform.
