Business Wire
Ross Systems, Inc. announced today the general availability of
Ross in the Cloud, the software-as-a-service (SaaS) version of its
popular Ross ERP suite of solutions that will help process
manufacturing industries reduce their initial investment and
minimize the costly burden of IT overhead and maintenance, while
achieving low total cost of ownership.
This new solution is delivered on demand and managed, monitored
and maintained by Ross experts in hosted data centers. Available in
a monthly subscription pricing model based on number of users,
application configuration and service term, Ross in the Cloud
offers a secured cloud environment for its manufacturing,
distribution and financial applications. Ross in the Cloud gives
many small to medium-size businesses (SMBs) access to ERP
capabilities previously only available to larger enterprises. Ross
in the Cloud includes applications addressing financials, inventory
control, manufacturing, maintenance management, process planning,
purchasing, sales order process, vendor management inventory and
business analytics, among other functionalities. The suite also
includes TraceExpress, an innovative application that provides full
backward and forward traceability in a highly intuitive and
graphical display.
“Ross in the Cloud gives SMBs access to the latest technology
without having to spend significant upfront capital investments,”
said Ann Grackin of CEO of ChainLink Research. “In today’s
marketplace, business efficiency is crucial for SMBs to be
competitive in their markets. Technology like Ross in the Cloud
helps SMBs not only meet their efficiency goals but positions them
to gain market share and ultimately improve their bottom line.”
“With Ross in the Cloud, Ross Systems gives enterprises choices
in their deployment options, from on premise to on demand, to suit
their current and future needs,” said Sherri Rodriguez, president
of Ross Systems. “Ross Systems offers their cloud customers this
unique flexibility to move easily to an on-premise solution later -
if their business grows or demands change - without having to
re-implement the software and disrupt their business. The new cloud
ERP solution also helps reduce manufacturer’s overall operational
IT costs and offers high scalability and security. Since
manufacturers don’t have the headaches of maintaining a costly IT
infrastructure, they can now focus on what they do best - run their
business and maintain their competitive edge.”
