Enterprises modernizing their ERP systems often face a“SaaS Mess,” in which multiple best-of-breed applications require constant updates and testing to maintain seamless business processes. Traditional manual ERP testing methods introduce significant risks, threatening transformation initiatives and potentially leading to financial and reputational harm.
By harnessing AI and machine learning, Opkey dramatically reduces the time and effort needed for ERP testing. Its AI-powered assistant (Wilfred), utilizing a patent-pending GenAI Test Mining algorithm, dynamically generates tests tailored to client-specific configurations and customizations. As a result, enterprises can accelerate ERP changes by 50% and reduce defect rates by over 70%.
"We're excited to partner with Pankaj and the Opkey team as they pioneer the next frontier of innovation in ERP modernization, delivering unparalleled assurance through continuous, AI-enabled test automation," said Sanket Merchant, Partner, PeakSpan Capital. "As thematic B2B software investors, we understand the criticality of ERP and other enterprise applications (e.g., HRIS, CRM), which represent significant investments and operate as the central nervous system powering global business operations. We believe that, given the inefficiencies that exist today in all phases of the ERP life cycle, a new category of solutions will emerge, utilizing AI to address the high failure rate of cloud transformation and automate critical areas of implementation, testing, and support. Solutions like Opkey's are mission-critical for achieving continuous assurance in the delivery of technology that yields optimal business outcomes. We could not be more energized to support Opkey's vision for ERP Ops, which will help CIOs with their ERP transformation and modernization initiatives by providing a common data fabric, resilience in their technology strategy, and optimize table stakes business performance."
Opkey currently has more than 200 enterprise customers, 72% of which are ranked in the Fortune 1000. The company also partners with large systems integrators like KPMG, Huron, and PwC to bring the power of AI to their implementation and managed services projects.
