Say goodbye to clunky on-premise systems and hello to a seamlessly connected ecosystem. Access your critical business data anytime, anywhere, from any device. M1 Cloud eliminates the burden of IT infrastructure management, freeing your team to focus on what they do best – driving your business forward.

Scalability and Flexibility

According to a 2022 Gartner report, Cloud ERP solutions are inherently scalable, allowing businesses to pay only for the resources they use. This can lead to significant cost savings compared to on-premise solutions, which require upfront investments in hardware and software that may not be fully utilized.

Boost your bottom line with automated workflows, data-driven insights, and intelligent inventory management. Reduce costly errors, optimize production schedules, and collaborate seamlessly with teams across your organization. M1 Cloud offers industry-specific features tailored to the unique needs of discrete manufacturers, ensuring you can adapt and thrive in an ever-evolving market.

Reduce Upfront Costs

According to a 2023 study by Nucleus Research, cloud ERP solutions can deliver a 13% lower total cost of ownership (TCO) compared to on-premise solutions. This is due to the elimination of upfront hardware and software investments, and reduced IT maintenance costs.

Are you ready to disrupt your competition and dominate the market?

In today's interconnected world, cybersecurity threats evolve as fast as technology itself. For manufacturers, protecting sensitive data and systems is not just a responsibility, it's a matter of survival. M1 Cloud understands this critical need and provides a robust security framework to ensure your business remains safe and sound.

Here's why M1 Cloud stands out when it comes to security:

Built-in Multi-Layered Defense

Are you satisfied with your current firewall's effectiveness? Have you had it professionally assessed for vulnerabilities?

• State-of-the-art firewalls: Continuously updated and meticulously maintained, our firewalls provide an impenetrable barrier against unauthorized access. Unlike the 50% of firewalls riddled with vulnerabilities, yours are always at peak performance.
• Automated Patch Management: No more worrying about missed patches leaving your systems open to malware. M1 Cloud automatically deploys critical security updates, eliminating the #1 cause of hacking incidents.
• Proactive Penetration Testing: We don't wait for hackers to find our weaknesses. We partner with security experts to regularly conduct penetration testing, uncovering and addressing vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. This goes beyond simple vulnerability assessments, offering an in-depth analysis of your security posture.

Advanced Security Features

How prepared is your business for a potential disaster? Can you guarantee minimal downtime and data loss in case of unforeseen events?

• Data Encryption: All your data, at rest and in transit, is encrypted using industry-standard protocols, ensuring complete confidentiality and compliance with regulations like PCI.
• Access Controls: Granular access controls ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive information, minimizing the risk of internal threats.
• Disaster Recovery: Our robust disaster recovery plan guarantees business continuity in case of unforeseen events, minimizing downtime and data loss.

Beyond Traditional Security

Do you have a dedicated team of cybersecurity experts monitoring and managing your security infrastructure?

• Dedicated Security Team: A team of cybersecurity experts constantly monitors and analyzes threats, proactively adapting our defenses to stay ahead of the curve.
• Compliance Expertise: We understand the complexities of industry regulations and help you achieve compliance with PCI, HIPAA, and other relevant standards.
• Transparency and Trust: We believe in open communication and provide regular security reports, empowering you to understand and manage your security posture effectively.

The ECI Example

ECI, a leading manufacturer, invests $300,000 annually in penetration and vulnerability testing alone. While many SMBs shy away from such investments due to perceived cost, the reality is that neglecting security can have far greater financial and reputational consequences. M1 ERP cloud-based solution eliminates this barrier by offering comprehensive security at a fraction of the cost.
