ERP software provider Glovia International today said it is offering its order management application as a subscription service delivered as part of Salesforce.com’s cloud computing infrastructure.
Introduced today at Salesforce.com’s annual Dreamforce customer conference, the order management service is available for $65 per user per month, Glovia said.
The Salesforce.com cloud computing platform becomes the third major channel through which Glovia delivers its applications. The company, a subsidiary of Fujitsu Ltd., has been selling traditional on-premise versions of its Glovia ERP suite to engineer-to-order, make-to-order, high-volume, and mixed-mode manufacturers for several years. Glovia also sells GSInnovate for Manufacturing, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) version of its ERP suite.
Although Glovia was one of the first ERP software purveyors to offer its applications on a SaaS basis, the company is facing increasing competition from vendors such as SAP, Infor, Lawson, and Plexus, all of which now sell SaaS versions of their products.
