Rootstock Acquires Praxis Solutions and Appoints Praxis Head Ohad Idan as VP of Product

Acquisition deepens Rootstock's Salesforce ecosystem expertise to accelerate agentic capabilities, extend professional services capacity, and strengthen ERP product leadership

San Ramon, Calif. - Rootstock Software ("Rootstock" or "the Company"), a recognized leader in cloud ERP for product-based companies, today announced its acquisition of Praxis Solutions, LLC (https://www.getpraxis.com/), a Salesforce consulting and implementation firm with a long-standing partnership with Rootstock. Rootstock is backed by Gryphon Investors, a leading middle-market private investment firm.


As part of the acquisition, Ohad Idan, Founder and CEO of Praxis (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ohadidan/), will join Rootstock as its new Vice President of Product, adding his proven leadership and vision to the company's next phase of growth. Coupled with expanded professional services capabilities, the acquisition will enable Rootstock to deliver its Salesforce-native ERP solution to a broader base of product companies worldwide.

"Both the acquisition of Praxis and Ohad's appointment mark major steps in Rootstock's long-term strategy to lead a new era of ERP innovation," said Rick Berger, CEO of Rootstock (https://www.rootstock.com/about-erp-software-company/management-team/). "Praxis has been a trusted partner for many years, and integrating their team's expertise across the Salesforce ecosystem and Rootstock ERP will strengthen our innovation engine and accelerate our ability to deliver measurable value to customers. With Ohad leading our product strategy, we are poised to redefine ERP, making it more intelligent, connected, and adaptable for product companies of the future."

Mr. Idan is a Salesforce MVP Hall of Famer (https://www.salesforce.com/blog/welcome-hall-of-fame-mvps/) and winner of the 2025 Dreamforce Hackathon. With more than 20 years of experience across manufacturing, logistics, and enterprise technology, he has helped many companies modernize their operations and implement scalable digital solutions. At Praxis, Mr. Idan led numerous digital transformation initiatives using Salesforce and Rootstock solutions and built a reputation for customer partnerships grounded in trust, transparency, and measurable results. Previously, he held operational and technical leadership roles at I.D. Systems, Elcom Technologies, and Titan Tool, where he spearheaded large-scale ERP and CRM initiatives.

"I'm thrilled to join Rootstock at such a pivotal time in the Company's trajectory," said Mr. Idan. "The integration of Praxis into Rootstock is an exciting milestone in our mission to empower manufacturers and distributors with AI-enabled ERP solutions that drive efficiency, agility, and growth. Product companies are demanding a flexible, forward-looking ERP, but as these businesses define their AI strategies, they also need a partner to help them achieve agentic maturity. We're setting a course to deliver the agentic innovations that foster resilience, performance, and long-term success."

The Praxis consulting team will be integrated into Rootstock's Global Professional Services (https://www.rootstock.com/services/professional-services/) organization, led by Caroline (Santander) Marty, SVP of Global Professional Services & Enablement.

"Our organizations have a shared culture focused on customer success," said Ms. Marty. "This means Praxis customers can expect the same high level of service, but now with the added benefit of Rootstock's expanded resources and global support infrastructure. And because their consultants already know our platform, technology, and many of our customers, they can immediately hit the ground running, contributing to our projects. Finally, the addition of the Praxis team expands our delivery capacity and accelerates our ability to offer additional services."
