His options
After research and suggestions from his reports, the choices narrowed down to four options. Three of them were long-running popular names and one of them was a fresh open-source alternative to all of them.
Spending millions and months on complex ERP software?
ERP costs increase fast with various charges. But there is an alternative, a simple path and a simpler ERP. One price to access everything.
Meet Jake
Jake is a senior IT manager at a large organization. Among other things, he's responsible for searching and choosing the right ERP for his company. Considering the size and utility, Jake knew that different SaaS apps were out of the question, and a complete ERP was the best way ahead.
Priorities
The three older ERPs had a lot of functionality and a slight edge over the open-source alternative. At the same time, the open-source ERP had clear advantages like super easy configurations, customizations, and simple UX which could be learned in a few days.
A choice to make
After weighing everything Jake found the open-source option much easier to use and loved the ease of customization. A cherry on the cake was that the open-source option had no licensing at all! This meant that the only document his employees had to read was the product documentation to get started with the ERP.
Clear advantage
By far, the clearest advantage the open source ERP had over the others was pricing. Other things were great too but the pricing caught his eye. The open-source option costed only one-third or even less than the other choices! Can you believe that? Jake said what the hell and gave ERPNext a shot.
