For several years now, the Vendor Shootout™ for ERP has changed the way companies approach software selection by minimizing the overall time and effort involved in qualifying potential Enterprise Software vendors. This unique event offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity for you and your team to see the best in Enterprise Software Solutions in the world all
in one place, all at the same time!
Moderated by
Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC), the goal of the event is to simplify the Enterprise Software selection process, alleviating some of the painful inefficiencies by coordinating on-site software presentations and delivering them in one event.
Geared toward ERP selection teams and decision makers for companies with a manufacturing, distribution &/or project-oriented requirements, the Vendor Shootout™ for ERP is ideal for businesses who are budgeting for or are currently evaluating ERP software. Through scripted and unscripted product demonstrations from several vendors, companies can ultimately walk away with a short list of potential products.
What Should You Expect?
Attendees are given the opportunity to see a series of scripted, as well as unscripted product demonstrations from the presenting vendors. Attendees select the scripted product demonstrations they wish to attend, based on the products being presented that they are interested in learning more about. Scripted demonstrations will cover product functionality, user interfaces, and overall usability.
Scripted, software demonstrations by each vendor will allow an "apples to apples" comparison of each product. Each vendor will follow the same script guidelines to present similar functionality covering the basic requirements of distribution, manufacturing, and project-oriented companies. Vendors are under strict instructions to explicitly indicate any customizations, modifications, or 3rd party products used in order to complete the presentation. The same presentations will be made during each of the scripted product demonstrations during the event so you can easily compare between packages and select your short list for further evaluation.
