Epicor, based in Texas, has made recent developments to accelerate its operational growth in China, including its Managed Hosting Service launch for Kinetic and its partnership with Shanghai-based Grand Target Information Technology, according to a press release.
“The new Epicor Managed Hosting Services offering in China underpins our long-term international growth strategy, equipping manufacturers in China with an innovative solution to help digitally transform their business and drive growth,” Andy Coussins, Epicor senior vice president and head of international, said. “With the new regional offering, we’re excited to provide manufacturers with deep industry expertise and innovation to help achieve their business objectives, while upholding strong security standards and best-in-class regional hosting services delivery in China.”
The new offering aims to strengthen the company’s operational presence in Asia and continue its growth momentum from last year, which resulted in a 190% increase in Epicor Kinetic consumer adoption.
The new addition will offer features to help manufacturers “develop purpose-built features and enhancements to grow businesses,” a recent press release stated. “Managed hosting services allows Epicor Kinetic customers to stay current with our latest innovations and help provide a competitive edge.”
Deemed “a purpose-built, flexible and scalable platform that helps manufacturers better compete and grow their businesses,” the launch is intended to help increase productivity, remove the limitations of working from a single location and eliminate upfront hardware and maintenance requirements.
It will also attract more local partnerships, such as its existing partnership with Grand Target. Counting with the support of offices in Shanghai, Guangzhou and Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China, and South Carolina, USA, Grand Target offers monitoring services around the clock to eliminate cybersecurity threats, improve operational conditions, enhance productivity and automation through the use of customizable, guided workflows and limit costs.
“Epicor Software Corporation equips hard-working businesses with enterprise solutions that keep the world turning,” the press release stated.
