Don’t Be Afraid of Hosted ERP

Posted on March 8, 2010

A lengthy, valuable look at the cost, benefits and tradeoffs of implementing a hosted ERP solution. Includes customer and deployment examples, ROI comparisons and expert quotes. From the Resource:
- On average, on-demand ERP is 8.9 times faster to deploy than is on-premises ERP
- On average, the initial cost per user to deploy on-demand ERP is 28 percent less than the cost to deploy on-premises ERP
- Over five years, on-demand ERP’s average TCO per user is 50 percent less than that of on-premises ERP (assuming no significant upgrades)
- Looking at SAP AG alone, given SAP’s high initial and ongoing costs, there’s no point at which SAP’s TCO becomes lower than on-demand ERP’s.
