A real-world breakdown of ERP pricing—and the value it delivers.
If you’re considering ERP for the first time, one of your biggest questions is probably:
“How much is this going to cost us?”
It’s a smart question. ERP is a significant investment—but it’s also a powerful one. When
done right, it helps businesses reduce manual work, avoid costly mistakes, and scale with
confidence.
Let’s break down the true cost of ERP—and why solutions like Infor ERP deliver long-term
value that far outweighs the upfront price tag.
The Components of ERP Cost
ERP pricing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Your cost depends on things like company size, number
of users, modules needed, and whether you choose cloud or on-premise
deployment.
Here’s what typically makes up the total cost:
1. Licensing or Subscription Fees
• Cloud ERP (like Infor) is subscription-based—monthly or annually.
• On-premise ERP usually involves a one-time license fee.
Cloud is typically more budget-friendly for small to mid-sized businesses, with less
upfront cost.
2. Implementation Services
• Includes system configuration, data migration, training, and go-live support.
• Cost varies based on your complexity and internal readiness.
Infor ERP accelerates this process with industry-specific templates and best
practices—saving time and effort.
3. User Training
• Crucial to adoption and long-term success.
• Many vendors include training as part of the package.
Infor provides intuitive user interfaces and tailored onboarding to reduce learning
curves.
4. Maintenance and Support
• Cloud ERP includes ongoing updates, bug fixes, and customer support in the
subscription fee.
• On-premise ERP may charge extra for annual support and upgrades.
With Infor CloudSuite, you’re always on the latest version—no surprise upgrade costs.
What You Get in Return: ERP’s Real ROI
ERP isn’t just a cost—it’s an engine for growth and efficiency. Here’s what you gain:
Time Savings
Automated workflows mean fewer manual tasks, faster reporting, and streamlined
processes across departments.
Cost Reduction
From overstock and rework to redundant software and headcount strain—ERP helps
eliminate inefficiencies that chip away at your margins.
Better Decisions
Real-time data gives leaders the visibility to make smarter, faster calls—based on facts,
not guesswork.
Scalability
ERP grows with you. Whether you open new locations, expand your team, or diversify
services, your system is ready to support it.
And don’t forget the cost of doing nothing.
While ERP drives measurable gains, the opportunity cost of inaction is just as real. Your
competitors may already be leveraging ERP to cut waste, improve visibility, and move
faster. Holding on to outdated systems means falling behind—missing out on efficiency,
growth, and competitive edge.
