Today, you can select from several ERP deployment strategies, including cloud, on-premise, and hybrid. Each provides its own set of benefits, and the overall success of an ERP implementation will hinge in part on the chosen deployment methodology and how that aligns to the business\u2019 model, objectives and resourcing.<\/p>\n<p>The deployment option you choose will depend on the scope and scale of your business and the considerations that matter most to your organisation\u2019s ongoing growth. It\u2019s crucial to determine which is the best fit for your business early in the ERP selection process, as some software vendors offer only cloud-based or on-premise implementation models. Precise offer both, as well as hybrid solutions that blend the two.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<span style=\"font-size: 1.3em\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"q_text\" style=\"text-align: justify;font-size: 1.3em;line-height: 1.3em\">Generally though, a cloud-based ERP software system is more rapidly deployed, offers a reduction in direct and indirect IT costs, provides greater cyber-security, and has the ease of automatic software upgrades.

In most cases, cloud ERP solutions are cheaper to implement and typically are factored as Operating Expenditure rather than Capital Expenditure as you never \u201cown\u201d the software licensing. However, if you already have the infrastructure and IT management resources available, on-premise or hybrid solutions may make more financial sense long-term.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Security Requirements &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Users of ERP software rely on accessing and managing large amounts of secure data. Cloud-based ERP systems like Epicor are best stored on servers located in top-tier data centres, the off-site physical location of computer infrastructure, specifically hardened against cyber-attacks. However, some highly regulated industries do not allow businesses to store data in the cloud, or demand data sovereignty that may preclude overseas-hosted options.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Maintenance Capabilities &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>An on-premise solution requires a highly skilled in-house IT team to maintain and update. For startups, smaller businesses or those with more limited resources, hiring full-time employees may not be an option. For medium to large-scale businesses a cloud-deployment model frees up the IT team to better utilise their time on value-added tasks. In a SaaS arrangement, the vendor is responsible for the upkeep of software and hardware.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Scalability &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>One of the major benefits of cloud solutions is the ability to scale with ease.
