The Acumatica Financial Management Suite is sold stand-alone and as part of a broader ERP suite that includes distribution and manufacturing capabilities along with CRM functionality. The solution is designed for midmarket customers and deployed in the Acumatica public cloud, run on Amazon Web Services, or a private cloud of the customer’s choice (either on-premises or at a hosted facility). Acumatica focuses on cloud rather than on-premises delivery, and the majority of its customers use the public cloud service. It also provides a cloud development platform, Cloud xRP Platform, that has many of the capabilities of a platform as a service.

Acumatica is a Visionary in this Magic Quadrant due to its focus on cloud, the flexibility of xRP to support extension of the delivered functionality by partners, and good core financial management functionality for midsize organizations. However, limited market awareness and a broader suite focus limit Acumatica’s Ability to Execute in this market.
