With the rapid pace at which technology has been moving, experts expect that over the next decade the norm will be for organizations to move from on-premise to cloud ERP. Research firm Gartner predicts that heavily-customized, on-premise ERP deployments will soon be commonly thought of as ‘legacy ERP’.
