In the ERP community, there is always a debate about what an ERP is. Sure, you could say that anything that automates enterprise and cross-functional workflow could qualify as an ERP. This would include solutions such as CRM, HCM, MES, P2P, and the real ERP, as they all automate enterprise workflows to some degree. Also, there is a thin line as the companies that grew as edge apps like Salesforce, Workday, or ServiceNow tries to gain additional capabilities in other functions in an organization. For example, Workday started as the best-of-breed cloud HCM application for enterprises with thousands of employees. At that time, most HCM applications were clunky and didn't provide the employee experience that organizations needed that depended on attracting the best talent from the market. The companies that often struggle the most are the ones that had to attract expensive talents such as professional services, tech, and financial services. So, where does Workday stand as of today, and where do they win the most?
