The process of searching, evaluating, purchasing, and deploying an ERP solution is not as simple as it once was. There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to ERP software. Solutions today come in a variety of different flavors, each features a particular set of capabilities, strengths, and drawbacks. Choosing the right vendor and solution is a complicated process—one that requires in-depth research and often comes down to more than just the solution and its technical capabilities.

FrontRunners for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), May 2018 from Software Advice is their attempt at simplifying this process for you. Their research highlights the top software products for North American small businesses, helping these companies to make more informed decisions about what software is right for them. Software Advice states that “all 27 products appearing in the FrontRunners report are top performers. To create the report, Software Advice evaluated more than 150 ERP products, positioning the top scoring products based on usability and user recommendations for small businesses.”

The report also provides an overall definition of ERP software, market trends that are having a profound influence on ERP solutions, a “What Type of Buyer Are You?” section, recent events you should know about, and common features of ERP software explained in full.

Here at Solutions Review, it’s our job to help simplify that process too. To that end, we’ve created a variety of buyer resources and articles to speed the evaluation of enterprise technology solutions.
