Guía · El costo de un ERP · Chultún
The licence is the line everyone looks at and almost never the one that weighs most.
When somebody compares two ERP proposals they usually compare licences, the only thing that comes as a round number. The real cost has five line items and three are easy to forget — and they are exactly the ones that make a cheap project expensive. There are no figures here: there are the line items, so you can compare like with like.
Sound familiar?
It happens in almost every business.
You have two proposals and do not know whether they compare the same thing.
One is much cheaper and you do not understand why.
You are worried about the cost that shows up after signing.
What you get
What gets done.
One: the licence
The only item that almost always comes clearly stated. It depends on how many users and which edition, and it is the most compared and least surprising.
Two: the implementation
Configuring, loading data and training. This is where two proposals really diverge, and where you look at what each includes.
Three: cleaning and migrating your data
The most forgotten item. If a proposal does not mention it, it does not mean it does not exist: you will pay for it later or do it yourself.
Four: your people's time
Nobody invoices it and everybody pays it. Defining processes, checking loads and getting trained are your team's hours, not the supplier's.
Five: what comes afterwards
Support, changes and the next version. A project does not end the day it goes live, and it is worth knowing what happens in month thirteen.
How we work with you
Three steps, no surprises.
- 01
Ask for the five items separately
From anyone. A proposal that does not separate them is hiding one.
- 02
Ask what is NOT included
It is more revealing than asking what is.
- 03
And count your team's hours
It is the item that decides whether the project finishes or gets abandoned.
Does your cheapest proposal mention who cleans your data?If it does not, there is the difference.
I want a proposalFrequently asked questions
What people ask us before we start.
Why do you not publish prices?
Because a price without knowing how many areas, how many users and the state of your data would be a made-up figure. With an assessment, the proposal goes in writing.
Which item is usually largest?
It depends on the case, but the one that surprises most is almost always data.
Can it be done in parts to spread the cost?
Yes, and it usually makes sense: in phases, starting with the area that hurts most.
How do I compare two proposals fairly?
By asking both for the five items separately, and asking each what it excludes.
