Higher Cost-effectiveness of Cloud-based Warehouse Management Systems a Plus Point

In 2015, on-premise WMS accounted for the maximum revenue share of the warehouse management software market at around 77%. However, cloud-based warehouse management software is expected to show sustainable growth during the forecast period due to various technological advancements and a higher cost-effectiveness as compared to on-premise warehouse management software.
