And yes, your legacy ERP system may be difficult to replace, likely because of all the different systems and platforms that your IT department spends most of its time patching together. Fortunately, ERP technology has advanced so that manufacturers no longer must rely on expensive, disconnected systems to help them run their business. Legacy ERP was designed in a slower, pre-internet age and wasn’t built to connect seamlessly with the customer, financial, and other business systems. That’s why so many businesses are moving to cloud-based ERP platforms, like Rootstock Cloud ERP. ![sf logo](https://clouderp.rootstock.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sf%20logo.png?width=153&height=108&name=sf%20logo.png) ## Rootstock is the #1 ERP system for organizations that manufacture,distribute, and service goods on the Salesforce Platform.
