An Investigation on Cloud ERP Adoption Using Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) and Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) Theories: A Systematic Review

The purpose of this study was to explore the important factors for the adoption of Cloud ERP systems. When organisations make decision on implementation of innovative technology such as Cloud ERP, there is a range of factors to be considered. This paper aims to identify the most significant 9 TOE and DOI factors which have positive influence towards Cloud ERP adoption by conducting a systematic literature review (SLR). A conceptual framework was proposed which is useful reference for potential Cloud ERP adopters who are making decisions on Cloud ERP adoption. The conceptual framework includes the identified 9 factors as independent variables; adoption of Cloud ERP as dependent variable; firm sizes and countries as the two moderating variables.
