Infor ERP Support Across the Technology Lifecycle

PCG’s Infor managed services provide ongoing technical, functional, and user support for Infor platforms. These ERP managed services help organizations manage daily operations, plan Infor upgrades, support integrations, and keep users productive without dividing responsibility across multiple vendors.

Through PCG ASSURE™, customers can access ERP support services for platform administration, Infor integration, release impact management, and regression testing. We can also include reporting and user assistance on request. PCG keeps the support model tied to how the business uses the platform, from routine maintenance through ongoing optimization.

        • Functional, technical, and user support
        • Infor integration, patch, and upgrade support
        • System administration, performance monitoring, and issue resolution
        • Release impact assessment and regression testing
