An effective user in the cloud isn’t enough. Traditional ERP systems achieve greater fit though customizations which are costly and time consuming to create and maintain. Worst of all, they make your system more rigid, making upgrades to the latest functionality incredibly difficult. The QAD Enterprise Platform provides a better way.

The QAD Enterprise Platform was designed to make it simple to deliver functionality unique to each manufacturer’s needs without creating a rigid ERP system in the long-term. This means that future upgrades are not impaired or complicated by enhancements.

With an ERP system at its core, the QAD Enterprise Platform has the proven ability to run mission-critical, complex applications at scale, delivering greater than 99.5% application uptime in the cloud. The QAD Enterprise Platform is cloud independent, allowing QAD to select the best cloud to meet our customers needs over time.

QAD Cloud ERP, QAD Channel Islands and the QAD Enterprise Platform allow manufacturers to maximize the return on their ERP software investment by more easily achieving greater levels of fit to business requirements and rapidly responding to change. This ensures the strategic business alignment of the ERP system now and into the future.

Advanced technologies under the umbrella of Industry 4.0, are being used for competitive advantage in Manufacturing across industries and the supply chain. To remain competitive, manufacturers should plan to adopt new technologies rapidly while sustaining current daily operational execution. The QAD Enterprise Platform, due to its loosely coupled architecture using REST-based APIs, allows for new advanced technologies to be easily adopted and updated. This pragmatic approach supports the technologies that deliver real value today and provides the flexibility to adapt to the technologies of tomorrow.
