Infor’s Strategy For Differentiation
Summary
Several top executives laid out Infor’s strategy for differentiating their solutions based on their approach to technology, product development, and customer service. More specifically, ERP firms like Infor, Oracle, and SAP – or supply chain software companies - like Manhattan Associates and Blue Yonder – have produced multitenant cloud solutions. Their micro verticals need solutions that support shelf-life logic, seasonality, achieving high quality despite variability in raw materials and ingredients, traceability, and attribute-based stock keeping units. Solutions based on the public cloud – software as a service customers - have grown at a compound annual growth rate of 28.3% over the past three years. That industry focus, in turn, supports a truly differentiated approach to ensuring that their customers get ongoing value from the business applications they have purchased.
