Web-Architecture

Accolent ERP’s web-architecture means that it can be accessed from a URL (just as you access Google by going to https://www.google.com), using any device that requires only a web browser to be installed. This anytime, anywhere, any device capability offers great flexibility and can drive substantial productivity improvements in a variety of challenging business settings including for remote or socially-distanced workers.

Latest Microsoft Technologies

Accolent ERP is built on the Microsoft stack incorporating all the latest .NET technologies that are extensively documented and widely used. The Microsoft technology stack is fully supported by Microsoft and a long-established global community of users.

AWS Public Cloud

Accolent ERP runs completely in the AWS (Amazon Web Services) public Cloud. AWS is the dominant Cloud provider with a market share estimated to exceed that of Microsoft, Google, Oracle and IBM combined.

Why Cloud Technology Matters?

It is apparent that the transition to the Cloud is accelerating and older client-server technology will be obsolete within the next few years. What is powering this shift, and what is the attraction of the Cloud you might ask? There are several major benefits to Cloud technology:

1. Running software in the Cloud and allowing users to access and use it is far more efficient than having to install and maintain the same software on multiple on-premises systems. Think of the challenge of every home having its own electric power generator rather than generating the power centrally and distributing it over the electric grid.
2. As the pace of technology advancement increases, the lifecycle of hardware is shortening and at the same time, increasing interconnectedness exponentially increases the complexity of computing environments. Given all this, deploying and maintaining on-premise hardware is becoming increasingly challenging, particularly for small and medium businesses.
3. Also, Cloud software is easier to maintain and update, users don’t have to schedule updates and ensure that all applications and operating systems work correctly following an upgrade.
4. In addition, not having to purchase hardware and software upfront, but instead paying only for what you use is a huge benefit for users.
