Gartner defines the market for cloud ERP for service-centric enterprises as a market for application technology that supports the automation of operational activities for service-centric (nonproduct) industries, including financial management, order-to-cash, source-to-pay, human capital management and other administrative capabilities. Cloud ERP for service-centric enterprises is delivered under a SaaS license model (with frequent mandatory updates), where application support, infrastructure provisioning and management are the responsibility of the vendor.
