Using Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) entrepreneurs will manage marketing, customer relations, project management, human resources, accounting, warehousing, procurement, and production via a single system.

He highlighted that the use and wide implementation of this platform will make it even easier for Azerbaijan to conduct cross-border trade and service operations online and join the global ERP users network in the near future.

It is supported by more than 2000 professional programmers and currently has more than 2 million users. AzERP operates as web-based application and requires no additional software.
