Points to remember while choosing an ERP package :
- Choose an ERP package that is industry-standards based
- Look closely at maintenance costs
- Evaluate your processes and decide if changing them to fit a particular ERP suite would be beneficial.
- Discuss a vendor’s stability with the vendor representatives and outside experts
- Find out how much customization assistance the vendor will offer
- Be efficient in contract negotiations
- And finally you must remember that you can’t get everything you want.
- Do accept that there is always going to be a functionality gap. Usually, you have to let 10% go.
- If the gap is more than that then you must look further.
