Introduction
Continuing our look at mid-market discrete ERP solutions, today's ERP Showdown pits Infor SyteLine vs. Exact Software Macola ES vs. QAD MFG/PRO, all aimed at medium-sized businesses in the over $250 million (USD) range.
Once again, we used TEC's ERP Evaluation Center to look at all eight standard ERP modules. To eliminate bias, and to ensure a level playing field, all 3,600 functional criteria that make up the modules and submodules in our ERP Evaluation Center were given equal weight and priority. (The results in this report are based on the most recent data supplied to us by the three vendors, indicating their level of support for each of these 3,600 functional criteria.) In other words, no area of functionality was rated as being more important than any other.
Conclusion
Given that out-of-the-box rankings rarely, if ever, reflect the real-world needs of an organization, and that rankings can shift depending on what area of functionality you look at, how do you determine which ERP solution is best suited for your business?
The fastest, simplest way is to do what we did to produce the results you see here: use TEC's ERP Evaluation Center. (We got our results in twenty minutes—as opposed to weeks or even months of struggling with huge Excel spreadsheets.)
TEC's ERP Evaluation Center allows you to set priorities that reflect your organization's business model and special needs at every level of functionality. At the modular and submodular levels, even down to the individual criteria, you can tell the system which business processes are critical, important, or not important to your organization. The system then compares your priorities against the vendor responses to produce a shortlist of solutions. You get a custom comparison—one that ranks vendor solutions not on out-of-the-box functionality, but rather on how well that functionality matches your business requirements.
It's the best way we know of to evaluate ERP solutions, and we invite you to give it a run-through. Simply click on the link below to visit our ERP Evaluation Center and conduct your fast, free custom ERP comparison. After all, there's no other organization quite like yours
