Las Vegas, Nevada, July 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — News summary:<\/b><\/p>\n Epicor Software Corporation<\/a>, a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software<\/a>, today presented the findings from their annual Insights Report. The key takeaway is that leaders of midsize businesses across the supply chain are bullish about growth fuelled on investment in cloud-ready technologies.<\/p>\n The study exclusively surveys leaders from midsize1<\/sup> businesses across the manufacturing, distribution and retail industries on the drivers of business growth over the coming year. The survey finds the nation\u2019s most essential business leaders are not simply gearing up for a \u2018bounce back\u2019 year but rather, they are leaning into the accelerating forces of COVID-19 to \u2018leap forward.\u2019 The most significant indicator of progress is the radical swing in cloud adoption. In 2020, 25% of respondents declared cloud a strategic priority. In this year\u2019s study, 99% of those surveyed confirmed they plan to move to the cloud, and 94% of them intend to do so this year.<\/p>\n \u201cA key takeaway from this year\u2019s study is the sea change in attitude toward cloud as a critical business accelerant. Leaders have moved from consideration to adoption. While the companies who make, move, and sell what is most essential to economic growth may be all aboard the cloud train, the data suggests their implementation needs vary vastly,\u201d stated Steve Murphy, CEO Epicor Software Corporation, during his keynote address at the annual customer Insights conference. He added: \u201cThis is no longer a \u2018why move\u2019 conversation but rather a \u2018how to move\u2019 to gain advantage \u2013 which is exactly why Epicor will continue to prioritize partnership, and we are proud to share that our dedicated migration teams currently support over 75% of implementations, a number we expect to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n Recognizing we have a vital role to play in supporting these essential businesses, Epicor prioritizes initiatives to address the needs and concerns of its customer base including, cybersecurity, implementation-as-a-service, total cost of ownership, and connectivity equity (read the blog post here<\/u><\/a>).<\/p>\n The survey focuses on bringing to the forefront the voices of the essential businesses that keep the world turning and provides opinion from across the supply chain landscape. While the overwhelming message of digital acceleration is encouraging for the nation\u2019s economic recovery and future growth, the data does provide signposts for the IT industry around the support these midsize essential businesses need to thrive.
