The story

Syspro is a long-established ERP vendor (founded 1978) for manufacturers and distributors, owned by Advent International. Historically a pure software business, it has incrementally added embedded financial workflows — AP automation via Priority CPX in 2022, and an embedded payments partnership with Nuvei in 2026 layered behind its own PayThem Payment Gateway — moving Syspro toward an ERP-as-financial-OS positioning for its industrial verticals.
