The Acumatica 2025 R2 virtual launch event began in true Acumatica fashion by honoring its roots. While each release introduces exciting innovation, one thing remains constant: Acumatica’s commitment to its core pillars of customer success, connected business, and industry specific innovation.
Shaping the Future with an AI First Mindset
A central question guided this release: How can Acumatica leverage AI to deliver better performance and tackle customer challenges head on?
The answer lies in the continued rollout of AI first innovation, woven into every layer of the platform. Acumatica is not treating AI as a plug-in or add on. It is an intelligent engine designed to drive performance, accuracy, and efficiency across the ERP ecosystem. Proving that they are willing to take on the challenge of outperforming competitors in terms of how AI is leveraged within an ERP system. The Acumatica Dev Team took on a ton of heavy lifting so your team won’t have to.
We see a great example of this in the Manufacturing Edition, AI anomaly detection now proactively highlights potential inefficiencies in production before they turn into costly problems. By analyzing data on material costs, labor time, production tools, and employee efficiency, manufacturers can spot irregularities early and act quickly, reducing risk and improving productivity.
These advances reflect Acumatica’s broader focus on AI Assistants, AI Automation, and AI Advisors, which together create more intuitive and predictive workflows for users across every industry.
Features Focused on Delivering Value to End-Users
Each new feature in 2025 R2 reinforces Acumatica’s three key themes:
-
Improved User Experience – Acumatica’s modernized user interface continues to evolve, offering an even cleaner and more intuitive experience. Users can now enable the new interface ahead of its default rollout in future releases.
-
AI First Solutions – AI insights are not isolated features. They are integrated throughout the system, improving decision making in real time.
-
Deeper Industry Capabilities – From finance to manufacturing, Acumatica is adding features that speak directly to the needs of each industry segment.
Introducing AI Studio: Turning Possibilities into Practical Solutions
One of the most anticipated advancements of 2025 R2 is AI Studio, a hub designed to help organizations build, test, and deploy AI models tailored to their own business data.
With AI Studio, companies can create custom AI models that analyze their unique workflows, learn from historical trends, and automate repetitive tasks. Whether you are training a model to predict purchasing trends, detect payment anomalies, or improve forecasting accuracy, AI Studio puts the power of artificial intelligence directly into users’ hands without the need for technical expertise.
This initiative represents Acumatica’s vision for responsible and accessible AI, empowering every business to innovate confidently and securely with technology that grows alongside their needs.
