Changes in buyer purchasing patterns picked up steam as the pandemic raged in 2020. As a result, retailers need a modern financial solution, one that is flexible and supports technologies, like cloud, mobile, or even curbside pickup. In response, the Acumatica team has been working diligently to enhance their Cloud ERP suite, so it surpasses these market demands with the release of Acumatica 2021 R1.
Acumatica Cloud ERP software is one of the leading ERP softwares on the market today because of how it adapts and scales with your business.
Whether you're all in on the cloud or looking to work in a slightly less-connected landscape, Acumatica offers the deployment flexibility you want and need. As one of the few (or only) players offering the choice to deploy in the cloud, on-premises, or in a private environment, these can affect you differently.
2020 was a tough year for retailers—at least those with a traditional brick-and mortar footprint. Capacity limitations and a continued push by Amazon left many traditional spaces fighting for their lives. But 2021 is here. Shots are going into arms, lockdowns are being lifted, and the busy seasons are coming up. But to succeed, retail executives will need to have customer information, supply chains, and planning initiatives perfected.
It’s challenging to modernize warehouse operations without a comprehensive plan. After all, the path to failure is laid with good intentions, and failing to plan is planning to fail. For the distribution industry—a sector awash with activity and evolution, many companies are forging new paths with the help of technology.

Part of any successful software decision journey is the process of defining needs, prioritizing functionality, and building your list of potential vendors to deliver on your expectations.
“Ghosting” is one of those terms in modern dating used to explain what happens when a potential love interest simply… vanishes. Things can be going swimmingly for weeks, you think that the two of you are on the same page, and then, one day, nothing.
In our last blog exploring the role of an ERP partner in helping you through your ERP selection and implementation journey, we highlighted the importance of communication and needs documentation, noting that this is a critical step not only for getting the right functionality, but in driving excitement for a project.
ERP is like surgery, and if you're going to approach anything as complicated and process-based as this, you're going to want to understand what the surgeon is going to do between the anesthesia and sewing up.
2020 was, in a word, unprecedented. Combine pandemic-driven lockdowns, recession, and an election thrown in for good measure all combined to make for an interesting time. And with all the uncertainty that the year brought, change was an imperative. From state governments limiting or restricting capacity in stores to increased safety measures, evolving customer expectations, and challenges in the supply chain, retailers needed to turn on a dime to keep up.
