Do you intend to buy Enterprise Resource Planning software for your company? If you answered yes, you must carefully consider whether your company should use custom ERP software or off-the-shelf ERP software. Of course, it is a difficult choice because customized ERP is scalable; as a result, many SMEs require customized ERP to run their manufacturing business smoothly. Off-the-shelf, on the other hand, is the most cost-effective option. However, keep in mind that, aside from pricing, several other factors must be considered before purchasing the right ERP software for the company.
