Virender Aggarwal's next mission: ERP on steroids

19.10.2012

For this, the company is making available its enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution on Amazon Web Services (AWS). "By pushing the software into the Amazon cloud, Ramco's ERP solution will be available globally," Aggarwal said.

Ramco's ERP on cloud provides functionalities such as supply chain management, customer resource management, financial management and built-in analytics.

Aggarwal said that the on-cloud offering will allow companies to grow their business without worrying about infrastructure resources or incurring any capital expenses. "We have a compelling payment model: pay as you use and there is no upfront licence cost," he said. "Our cloud implementation fee is much lower compared to others and we provide free updates."

The reason why they chose Amazon is that Amazon has presence almost everywhere in the world. "Our cloud runs from India, US and Singapore," he said.

Aggarwal said that Ramco's ERP on cloud is not only cheaper than other service providers, it was also unique because its "engine is not heavy" and it can "run off an iPad". "There is no other product that runs on an iPad," he said.
