January 8, 2015 - Research P4

Recently, Epicor has been making announcements regarding advancements in its retail offerings. On December 22, 2014, it announced a partnership with AJB Software Design Inc. and on January 7, it announced that it completed its acquisition of Shopvisible. Both of these announcements are strategic moves in the e-commerce retail industry, which is plagued by inflexible on-premise solutions. Nucleus found that these acquisitions will enable Epicor to offer a cloud-based solution that has lower initial and ongoing costs and would provide users with vendor management that is direct to Epicor.
