Came news of the industry, commonly known as "Microsoft ERP" The Dynamic series of product may increase the weight of the financial module, so a lot of domestic software manufacturers are some "leading" feeling.Because, "to finance as the core ERP" has always been the slogan of the domestic management software industry, of course, emphasize their strengths lie, as sales of services."Microsoft ERP" Are you willing to "finance" this throw in the towel? Or a change in policy to "finance" as a breakthrough, a breakthrough has been tepid in the situation?
Were nearly a decade ago, the software giant set up MBS (Microsoft Business Solutions) department of the time did make the global ERP industry scared into a cold sweat! Because the platform has been well-known software or office software, predators have indeed reached the management applications topeople have many ideas, originally based on Microsoft technology as a platform for application software providers suddenly have become Microsoft's competitors! this "friend and also enemy" role has so many partners, uncomfortable, and turn to Java and other technologiesplatform, has been observed even Microsoft's rival Google's technology direction, so that one day may also be transferred to the Google platform.
But the fear of competitors, in turn, proved that Microsoft enterprise application services business involved in the destruction, in support of a large customer base, the habit of pulling in customers, Microsoft's MBS products should have a good performance Dynamic Caixing.In fact, if just from a business point of view applications.In a short period of time, do it quickly global scale of one billion U.S. dollars worth commendable.But for Microsoft, the contribution of the 10 billion it is nothing, how to make the other side of MBS as "cash cows" is indeed broken tough job faced.
Coverage in customers is almost entirely overlap with the domestic manufacturers the case, Microsoft action in China Gengrang MBS domestic manufacturers on pins and needles.Down? Almost to domestic manufacturers have been concerned about the move never happened, but added Microsoft to compete once heard the news of a large state-owned enterprises; channels? Yes, Microsoft's own team of a large number of channels, but the real contribution to the MBS channel number mayNo more than SAP.The UF, Kingdee is one of the successful elements of a large area of market coverage, including a large number of channel partners, this "field system" of the marketing strategy for almost every project has its shadow, so that they almost do not have to worry about Leads.To date, opponent of terrorist events has yet to happen at Microsoft!
As a breakthrough in financial management software is the preferred destination for successful magic, and foreign ERP vendors do not have nearly accounted for in this one was nothing cheap.Time to eat in the Treasury certified not speak of the "boring loss", even now, the main advantage of an integrated ERP vendors in the financial aspects of overseas remains an edge.In addition to the Group Financial known, are attributable to Infor's Sun System's software, have not heard of other vendors in the main financial advantage to push them up to an open interface, to allow domestic financial software users are free to dock it with the ERP system.
"Microsoft ERP" take the news of the financial line, also a long time to spread the news of another re-fermentation: Microsoft has been famous negotiation of financial and ERP software vendors, trying to acquire the form of expansion in the China market failed.I do not know she saved in the extension of the cash after the acquisition of Yahoo is to contribute to the Chinese market? Or Simon Leung in power under the Microsoft China have a more radical approach? Is possible.
One reality is, whether their own or co-development or procurement, Microsoft ERP will not ignore the "financial core of the ERP" by creating a market environment, although this statement may not be "put all the business-all", but the operating system and the formation of massive financial software customer base term, not something'd a pity thing.That is, do not know, Microsoft MBS sleeve in the end will sell drugs?
