ArionERP's on-premise solution puts you in the driver's seat of your digital transformation.
Why ArionERP for Your On-Premise Solution?
In an era of cloud-first, choosing an on-premise ERP is a strategic decision for control and security. It's for organizations where data sovereignty isn't just a preference, it's a requirement. Here’s why we are the ideal partner for this mission-critical deployment.
Absolute Data Control
Your data resides on your servers, within your physical premises. This provides ultimate control over data access, privacy, and sovereignty, crucial for regulated industries and intellectual property protection.
Fortress-Level Security
Integrate the ERP directly with your existing security infrastructure and protocols. With no public cloud exposure, you significantly reduce the attack surface and maintain full control over your security posture.
Unmatched Performance
Operations run at LAN speed, independent of internet latency or outages. This is critical for manufacturing floors and high-transaction environments where every millisecond counts.
Deep Customization
On-premise solutions offer unparalleled freedom for deep, code-level customization and integration with legacy machinery or proprietary systems that cannot be achieved in a multi-tenant cloud environment.
Predictable TCO
An on-premise license is a capital expenditure (CAPEX)—a long-term asset. This model provides predictable costs, shielding you from the escalating subscription fees and unpredictable pricing tiers of SaaS models.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to common questions about choosing and implementing an on-premise ERP solution.
Hardware requirements vary based on user count, transaction volume, and modules used. A typical setup for a mid-sized company (50-100 users) would involve dedicated physical or virtual servers for the application, database, and testing environments. We provide detailed sizing specifications during the discovery phase based on your unique needs.
Our on-premise solution uses a perpetual license model. You pay a one-time fee for the software license based on the number of users and modules. This gives you the right to use the software indefinitely. There is also an optional, annual maintenance contract (AMC) which covers support and access to new version releases.
Yes. We offer a clear migration path from on-premise to our private or public cloud offerings. Because the core application is the same, the process is primarily an infrastructure and data migration project, not a full re-implementation. This gives you the flexibility to adapt your deployment strategy as your business needs evolve.
For a self-managed on-premise deployment, you will need internal staff with experience in server, network, and database administration. However, we also offer On-Premise Managed Services, where our team handles the day-to-day administration of your ERP, allowing you to get the benefits of on-premise control without needing a large in-house IT team.
Clients with an active Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC) receive access to all new version releases and security patches. You have full control over when you apply these updates. Our team provides a structured upgrade service that includes testing the new version in a sandbox environment with your data and customizations before deploying it to your live system.
An on-premise system's security is as strong as your overall network security. By being inside your firewall and not publicly accessible, it has a much smaller attack surface than a cloud system. However, it is still crucial to have robust network security, access controls, and a comprehensive backup and disaster recovery plan, all of which we help you design and implement.
