Learn why now is a great time to get onto our cloud.
Insights 2025, our premier customer-only event, is approaching in Las Vegas on May 5-8. As an Epicor employee, it’s the most exciting part of the year because the face-to-face interactions and networking are invaluable experiences. There’s nothing like meeting with peers to talk shop, meet other users, and receive the latest industry updates from Epicor experts.
Work and Play
There may even be some more time to have a little fun—our keynote speaker is none other than athlete and coach Deion Sanders. Known for his dynamic personality, Coach Prime Time will share how his professional sports and coaching career translates to the front lines of the supply chain. After a day of learning and collaborating, put on your dancing shoes for an evening with Grammy award-winning artist Pitbull
Data-Driven Decisions
This year’s theme of Spark Action is centered around what you can do with data. How can an organization use its data to make well-founded business choices based on clear strategies? A secure and flexible ERP application deployed in the cloud enables access to innovative technologies like AI, business intelligence, machine learning, and more. Businesses can integrate with these tools to drive innovation and derive insights to make informed decisions.
Cloud is Key for Modern Businesses
Moving to the cloud has become a crucial step for businesses to stay competitive and agile. Here are just a few of the benefits of cloud migration:
- Robust security measures to protect data, such as advanced encryption, regular security updates, and compliance with industry standards
- Reduced capital expenditures on expensive hardware and maintenance, since a subscription-as-a-service (SaaS) model means you only pay for the resources you use
- Unparalleled scalability, allowing for businesses to easily adjust resources based on demand
- Little to no downtime, as data stored in the cloud is backed up and can be quickly restored in the unlikely event of an emergency
- Increased team collaboration because cloud applications are accessible anytime, anywhere
