Nuclos Cloud is the web-based version of the ERP: core modules preinstalled, no need for your own server hardware to get started. Target audience: companies that want to go live quickly and conserve IT resources.

Typical characteristics:

• Low entry cost instead of a large hardware investment
• Predictable monthly cost based on package and number of users
• Core system with master data, orders, inventory, purchasing, and finance (overview)
• Scaling: modules and customization added as needed
• Hosting in Germany for data protection requirements (data residency)

Compared with on-premise: more control over infrastructure, but more operational effort on your side. Nuclos supports both paths with the same feature set. Cloud vs. on-premise comparison.

Cloud is not a dead end. Companies that later want deeper customization can build on the same platform (extending process-oriented ERP).

Before deciding: put export options, exit clauses, and integrations (accounting, e-invoicing) into the contract and the architecture.
