Hosted offsite 

Since Acumatica Cloud ERP is not running on company-owned IT hardware, companies using Acumatica Cloud ERP are not responsible for keeping software up to date and making sure security patches are being applied. The Acumatica Cloud ERP Cloud-hosting provider makes sure all necessary software is secure and operating properly.

ERP software developed for general business purposes is typically full of bloat, resulting in confusing and frustrating interfaces, and overall poor performance of the software. This is not the case with Acumatica Cloud ERP, since Acumatica develops industry-specific editions of Acumatica Cloud ERP. These industry-specific editions use interfaces that employees have little difficulty becoming accustomed to.

  • Have a complete overview of project details

  • Manage per-project budgets

  • Track project activities

  • Analyze job costs

This can all be done from a single interface using centralized company data.
