Acumatica, founded in 2008, is a technology provider that develops cloud- and browser-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) software for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). The company is headquartered in Bellevue, WA (Seattle metropolitan area).[1]
History
In November 2008, Acumatica launched its first product, Acumatica ERP, alongside an accompanying financial demo. In the following year, on-premises and SaaS software versions were released. Acumatica's distribution software came a year later in April 2010.[citation needed]
Acumatica received an investment from Visma in September 2011.[2]
In 2013, Yury Larichev became the company's Chief Executive Officer, soon after the company moved its headquarters to Kirkland, WA.[3][4]
In March of the same year, Acumatica launched version 4.0 of its ERP suite, which introduced a new user interface as well as Acumatica Studio for ERP app development.[5]
In March 2014, former Microsoft VP Jon Roskill was named Acumatica's new CEO.[6] Acumatica launched its xRP Cloud Platform 2 months later.[7] In the fall of 2014, Acumatica released the beta version of its new suite, Acumatica 5.0.[8] Around the same time, Acumatica secured over $13 million in funding in an effort led by MYOB.[9]
In January 2018, Kirill Tatarinov, a long-time software industry executive and former President of the Microsoft Business Solutions Division, with end-to-end responsibility for the Microsoft Dynamics business, joined the Board of Directors.[10]
In June 2018, Acumatica secured a $25 million Series C round of funding led by Accel-KKR, a Silicon Valley technology-focused investment firm.[11] Acumatica will use this investment to support growth, add headcount and fund further development of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning capabilities embedded in its software.[citation needed]
In June 2019, private equity fund EQT Partners acquired Acumatica.[12]
In December 2019, Acumatica announced a partnership with accounting and advisory firm BDO USA.[13]
In April 2020, Acumatica acquired JAAS Advanced Manufacturing Software from JAAS Systems.[14]
