Keeping Up With The Cloud

Business leaders who choose to deploy an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution on premises in an increasingly cloud-trending world have several reasons for their decision. Many choose to keep their system on premises because they are inexperienced with and wary of cloud-based software. Others are concerned they have insufficient resources to move to a cloud solution because their existing system is full of customizations that will complicate migration processes. Some prefer on premises ERP because they feel it better supports regulatory requirements such as ITAR or FDA compliance. Regardless of why your business has chosen on premises over cloud-based ERP, your choice doesn’t have to limit your ability to compete with the companies whose capabilities are elevated by the cloud.

MAP Enforcement Case Study

Skullcandy enforces strict MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) policies regarding the price points at which their authorized sellers are allowed to list their products on their respective websites and marketplace listings. To enforce this, Skullcandy was manually monitoring their resellers’ sites. It was tedious, costly, and extremely inaccurate, especially since they could only check the sites once every few days. This often meant that resellers could continuously change their prices and violate Skullcandy’s price policy without getting caught.

Read on to see how Skullcandy was better able to protect their brand with automated MAP monitoring and unauthorized seller detection.
