HP and QAD

Twenty-five years ago, QAD used HP hardware as the platform of choice to develop its software products — and QAD continues to rely on HP hardware today. When HP partnered with QAD, the goal was to offer customers comprehensive infrastructure solutions that meet the most demanding scalability and availability requirements of global manufacturing customers.

HP and QAD share strengths in the core industrial manufacturing markets, as well as in addressing multi-site, multi-national customer requirements — strengths that allowed the companies to realize their goal. Today, over 70% of QAD’s installed customer base runs on HP systems, due to the power and flexibility of the HP platforms and the availability of QAD solutions on both HP-UX and Windows 2003. Together, QAD and HP offer global manufacturing customers the benefits of a long-standing business partnership, complementary core competencies, lower TCO and, choice of platform.
