What Is Cloud ERP?
How accounting, inventory, HR, and orders come together on one system you never have to host. Cloud ERP in plain language.
About this episode
One shared database doing the work of several disconnected systems is the core idea here: accounting, inventory and order management, HR, and CRM reading the same data, so departments collaborate instead of duplicating work.
The narration then turns to what the cloud part changes: no upfront spend on computing infrastructure or licenses, lower maintenance costs, faster implementation than on-premise ERP, and access from anywhere. A primer for anyone who keeps hearing the term without a definition attached.
