Opkey, the leading AI-powered, No-Code ERP test automation platform, has just secured $47 million in Series B funding, a significant milestone that underscores its critical role in the ERP ecosystem. Led by PeakSpan Capital, this funding marks a pivotal moment for Opkey as it continues to revolutionize Cloud ERP transformations and testing across the globe.
We at Opkey are so excited about this great leap forward, especially in terms of benefits for our valuable customers and partners.
Opkey’s Growing Relevance in ERP Lifecycle Management
The latest round of funding signals more than just financial growth-it’s a strong testament to Opkey’s growing influence in the ERP lifecycle management space. As Cloud ERP systems rapidly become the backbone of modern enterprise operations, the need for a robust, AI-driven solution to manage these complex environments has never been more urgent.
Opkey has positioned itself at the forefront of this industry shift, addressing not only testing but also the critical operational challenges that arise throughout the ERP lifecycle. With over 200 enterprise customers, 72% of which are Fortune 1000, Opkey’s platform is increasingly becoming the go-to solution for CIOs who need to ensure seamless and successful ERP transformation and modernization programs. This new investment will enable Opkey to further enhance its AI capabilities, expand support for additional ERP platforms, and solidify its standing as a leader in ERP Ops across the entire ERP lifecycle.
Leading the Charge in ERP Observability
As enterprises continue to adopt Cloud ERP systems at an unprecedented rate, the challenge of maintaining operational continuity has grown exponentially. The so-called “SaaS Mess”-the complexity and risk introduced by a mix of constantly updating point applications-has made traditional, manual testing approaches obsolete. This is where Opkey’s ERP observability platform shines.
By combining an ERP specific small language model and propriety machine learning algorithms with advanced monitoring and log analytics across the entire ERP stack, Opkey provides a comprehensive ERP observability platform. This gives IT teams deep monitoring and insights at three levels — Process Performance, Business User Experience, and Error Resolution. This monitoring ensures that updates and changes to ERP systems do not disrupt business operations. Opkey’s AI-powered ERP Ops assistant, Wilfred, is a game-changer, empowering both technical and non-technical users to create, execute, and maintain automated tests effortlessly.
This innovation is setting a new standard in the ERP space, making Opkey an indispensable partner for enterprises navigating the complexities of cloud ERP environments.
What This Investment Means for our Customers and Partners
For Opkey’s current customers and partners, this investment brings a host of exciting prospects. The influx of capital will accelerate product development, particularly in enhancing the AI capabilities that are the cornerstone of Opkey’s platform. Customers can expect more robust support for a wider range of ERP systems, which will enable even more seamless transitions and operations in their ERP environments.
Moreover, the expanded sales and marketing efforts made possible by this funding will allow Opkey to broaden its market presence globally. This means that existing customers will benefit from a growing community of Opkey users and an expanding ecosystem of partners, further enriching the resources and support available to them.
Many customers may find themselves branching out from only using Opkey for test automation to relying on the Opkey platform for visibility and control across many aspects of their environments.
