Unique industry needs, purpose-built solutions
At Infor, we understand that one size fits all software fits almost no one. That’s why we focus on building
software for key verticals that have specialized needs. We are proud to count amongst our customers:
Infor Corporate Overview10
Design
Business software you look forward to using. That’s progress. Business software has a long-standing reputation for being—to put
it plainly—ugly and hard to use. Traditional design philosophy puts
function first, users last. At Infor, we believe the two don’t have to be
mutually exclusive. We also believe business software users deserve
better. Infor’s in-house UX design agency, known as Hook & Loop, is
dedicated to designing user experiences with purpose and intent—
and redefining expectations for business technology in the process.
Now that’s more like it
Infor considers beautiful user experiences
a fundamental part of what we do, not an
afterthought or nice to have.
11Infor Corporate Overview
Science
Data that predicts problems, rather than just reporting them. That’s progress. Data today is everywhere. Businesses have access to more
information than ever before. The question is, how do you turn
that data into an advantage, rather than just a bunch of numbers?
At Infor, we think this is the very best kind of problem to have.
That’s why we established a team of data scientists, known as Infor
Dynamic Science Labs, that has one key objective—to harness the
massive amounts of data organizations now have access to and use
it to approach often long-standing challenges in new ways. Whether
that means helping a retailer predict what customers will buy on
a given day of the year or enabling a hospital to reduce inventory
by 13% without compromising patient care, this team of PhDs,
researchers, and scientists spends its days bringing to life fresh
ideas about how data and emerging technologies can change
the way work is done.
Our Vision
The next generation of enterprise software won’t just collect, report, and distribute information. It will anticipate problems and respond with solutions. It will uncover opportunities and recommend next steps. It will drive strategies in all areas of business, from recruiting and staffing to asset management and pricing.

Infor Corporate Overview12
Architecture of the internet
Software that bends without breaking. That’s progress. Flexible is not a word often associated with enterprise software.
Systems that weren’t built to work together for the most part do not,
resulting in siloes of information and rigid environments that don’t
easily accommodate change.
At Infor, we think your systems should work easily together, whether
they came from us or someone else. We also think the stability of
your enterprise solutions shouldn’t be determined by the weakest
link in the chain. That’s why our software is built on a platform based
on the architecture of the internet – flexible, scalable, adaptable,
standards-based, and open. One application can be upgraded,
replaced, or even fail without taking your entire network down.
Information is accessible in real-time. And system maintenance
is less costly and complex. The result? Freedom.

Network
Visibility inside and outside your four walls. That’s progress. Companies today no longer compete solely on the strength of
their own products and services—they compete on the strength
of their business networks. The ability to collaborate and orchestrate
processes across a global community of interconnected companies
is now what gives leaders an edge in their markets. Building on
the world’s largest cloud-based collaborative commerce platform,
GT Nexus, Infor is bringing the concept of global business networks
to life, allowing companies to see beyond their four walls and tap into
the 80% of information that is otherwise locked away in the systems
of customers, suppliers, logistics providers and financial institutions.
The result? Greater visibility, agility, and the intelligence companies
need to survive and win.
