Excerpt
Because cloud vendors manage all of their customers on a single instance of the software, they can amortise infrastructure-related costs over thousands of customers. This results in substantial economies of scale and skill, reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) for customers who deploy business management solutions.
This report analyses the financial benefits of cloud ERP & CRM by comparing leading mid-market vendor offerings including NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage and Infor.
Here are four key findings:
— The overall TCO for NetSuite’s ERP and CRM cloud solution is as much as 46% less
— Cloud solution cost advantages are significant across all deployment sizes evaluated
— Application software costs account for roughly 85% of the total cloud cost vs just 23% in on premise
— IT infrastructure costs range from 51% in an on premise model to 0% in a cloud model
