Lift, Shift and Manage

Why “Lift, Shift & Manage” is the New Standard for JDE Environments

Whether you’re migrating your JD Edwards system to the cloud or modernising your infrastructure, the “Lift, Shift & Manage” approach delivers a comprehensive path:

  • Lift & Shift: Move your existing JDE workloads to cloud (OCI, Azure, AWS or hybrid) with minimal disruption.
  • Manage for the Future: Once migrated, treat your JDE environment as a managed service — monitor, optimise, and align it with your business goals.
  • Unlock Agility: With the right architecture, support model and governance, you free your team to focus on innovation rather than just running legacy systems.
Our curated service offering supports you across this full lifecycle — from architecture and migration to ongoing management and optimisation.

Trent, IS ManagerAtrion Medical
My overall experience with Circular Edge has been very positive. Their CNC and functional support resources are excellent. Utilizing the Smart Help approach has been a very flexible and economical way for us to scale our CNC resources, and the technical support they provide has been critical to the success of our E1 Tools upgrade project.

Circular Edge has been instrumental in providing support during a period of transition. They have provided the flexibility to scale up and scale down as necessary while only charging us for the time we use.
Jonathan, IT Manager of Enterprise Resource ManagementDenver Water
I am overjoyed with the quality of the work done. My biggest concern going in was the retrofits, which turned out to be the least troublesome for us. Thank you for helping us achieve a painless upgrade in record time.
James, Senior Director of ITPlano Synergy
I had a very time sensitive project related to integrating our JD Edwards ERP to our eCommerce and Amazon systems for Sales Order Automation. Circular Edge hit the mark on time and on budget. I will be having CE bid for further projects and would highly recommend them!
Thomas, JD Edwards ArchitectA&Z Pharmaceutical
Circular Edge did a phenomenal job accelerating our JDE 9.2 upgrade and migration from a managed JDE hosting provider to Azure. We have reduced overall JDE related infrastructure and support costs while providing better oversight of our environment and reduced development response times to our customers. Their proactive Lynx monitoring approach helps us to catch issues immediately – a huge step up from being alerted by our customers!

I absolutely feel they have brought incredibly talented 'solution experts' to the table.

Their collaboration capabilities, willingness to 'do it right' and work ethic is exemplary.
Tracy, ERP Business AnalystTriMark USA
The Circular Edge owners and seemingly every resource, albeit working in-house at our company or offshore, demonstrate a passion and drive as if they are a part of my company. They were an integral part in migrating our company from an outdated ERP system to JDE E1. Their Smart Help division has, and continues to aid us in configuring new processes, modifying and developing new software and trouble-shooting issues as needed.
