ERP software

Acumatica began its annual user Cloud ERP Summit in Las Vegas this year with new product announcements, as well as the news of a new strategic alliance with firm network BDO.

The new apps include accounting, enterprise resource planning, e-commerce, point-of-sale, mobile commerce and customer relationship management software applications.

The move to the cloud is allowing users to make more of their data and of the many new intelligent tools that are out there.

The company is seeking partners for implementation and to provide additional services to customers.

The partnership goes beyond typical value-added resellers, with BDO providing the advisory and consultation piece, while leveraging Acumatica’s more than 350 resellers to implement the software when needed.
