Epicor buys Grow, Inc.
Epicor, a global leader of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, announced it has acquired Grow Inc., a no-code, full-stack business intelligence (BI) platform.
“The Grow acquisition gives Epicor users a simple, easy-to-use platform to build the right models to tap into that intelligence, helping them make great decisions in real-time to accelerate growth,” said Steve Murphy CEO at Epicor.
The Grow platform, said Epicor, empowers any user – from the boardroom to the plant floor, warehouse, or store – to make data-driven decisions with easy-to-build, easy-to-use dashboards and interactive visualizations. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“In today’s world, businesses need a streamlined way to cut through the clutter, connect data sources, and glean intelligence from across their enterprise, no matter where the information resides,” said Murphy.
By combining data integrations, data warehousing, and visualization in one easy-to-use platform, Grow helps organizations connect and explore their data, said the firm.
“Grow helps users put their data to work, moving beyond simply knowing what is happening to understanding why,” said Rob Nelson, CEO at Grow.
With more than 150 pre-built data connectors across some of the most used platforms, databases, and CRMs, said Epicor, the BI platform imports data seamlessly via APIs that continually update and refresh data, so metrics are current and reliable when users need to make critical business decisions.
“We are thrilled to be joining Epicor, extending our mission to make it simple for companies to connect their data, explore it, and surface actionable insights,” said Nelson.
The acquisition complements and strengthens the Epicor portfolio of analytics capabilities, said the company, giving hardworking businesses that make, move, and sell a powerful set of resources to generate actionable insights from their data.
Founded in 1972, Epicor Software Corporation, based in Austin, Texas, said it, “equips hard-working businesses with enterprise solutions that keep the world turning.” For nearly 50 years, Epicor serves customers in the automotive, building supply, distribution, manufacturing and retail industries.
