The ERP Perspective: Why Mid-Market ERP Buyers Are Rethinking What “Modern ERP” Should Feel Like with Yuriy Zaletskyy (ACUPOWER)

What should businesses actually expect from a modern ERP?

Flexibility? Scalability? Data ownership? Easier integration?

Or simply the freedom to build an ERP environment around the business, rather than building the business around the ERP?

In our latest episode of The ERP Perspective, George Collier sits down with Yuriy Zaletskyy, Co-Founder and CTO at ACUPOWER, to explore what "modern ERP" really means in today's enterprise technology landscape.

The conversation challenges the idea that modernisation is simply about moving ERP to the cloud.

Yuriy explores why one size doesn't fit all, why businesses need platforms capable of adapting as their requirements change, and why internal teams need to be prepared to keep pace with increasingly flexible technology.

We also discuss an area that can easily be overlooked during ERP selection: data ownership.

Organisations need to understand not only what their ERP allows them to do today, but how much control they'll retain over their data, integrations, and technology decisions in the future.

And with ERP selection becoming increasingly complex, we explore a fascinating possibility.

Could independent ERP brokers eventually become a recognised part of the industry, helping businesses navigate an increasingly crowded technology market?

From Acumatica and scalable ERP architecture to implementation readiness, data ownership, and the future of ERP selection, this conversation asks organisations to think differently about what they should expect from their enterprise systems.

Modern ERP isn't simply technology that can scale.

It's technology that gives the business the freedom to change.
