Abstract

This study aims to explore the factors influencing the intention to adopt cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Jordan. The research proposes a new model by extending the technology acceptance model (TAM) with four additional factors, including computer self-efficacy, complexity, compatibility, and organizational support. Using a questionnaire, data was collected from 394 subjects. An adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was utilized to analyze the data. The results revealed that perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use of cloud ERP systems have a low-direct effect on the intention to adopt cloud ERP systems. Also, the study found that computer self-efficacy, complexity, compatibility, and organizational support have a low-direct effect on perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use of cloud ERP systems and, in turn, on the intention to adopt cloud ERP systems.
