The Silicon Review ^Asia

Cloud computing continues to grow in popularity since it offers companies scalability, agility, and the ability to save resources and money. The wide range of choices forces decision-makers to answer critical questions about their goals. It's especially true for a company going through a significant digital transformation, such as implementing a new Enterprise Resource Planning software solution. Using an ERP system is the best way to tackle the competition in such a highly competitive technological landscape.

Plumsoft started with a simple philosophy that technology should enable efficiency, not stand in the way. Plumware Cloud Development platform is the result of that philosophy. The firm has combined more than 30 years of developing business applications across different technology platforms by some of the best minds to develop innovative cloud technology that is simple, robust, and flexible. The new technology has eliminated the need for customers to make large upfront investments for software, hardware, middleware, and database and not to mention the elongated implementations and complex, costly upgrades.

PlumERP

A fresh alternative to the traditional legacy ERP systems, the cloud-based PlumERP solution delivered as a SaaS application is a revolutionary solution for all your business needs. Traditional legacy ERP and Enterprise Applications were not built for today's dynamic business environment. They rely on a static and aging data model that was developed more than ten years ago. They are rigid, inflexible, and built with yesterday's technology. Customers are forced to make large upfront investments for software, hardware, middleware, database, and professional services, and then suffer through elongated implementations and complex, costly upgrades.
