Computer Guidance Corporation, the leading developer of cloud-based ERP solutions for the construction industry, announced that Aldridge Electric has migrated its backbone enterprise resource planning solution, eCMS, to the Cloud leveraging Computer Guidance’s Managed Cloud Hosting services and state-of-the-art SaaS data centers.
Aldridge Electric’s Hosted eCMS ERP system now resides in a cloud computing environment where users access and operate the feature-rich, fully integrated construction management software over the Internet through a highly secure Web portal.
