However, the computer management system is not a panacea. The role of business applications is to the operation of commercial circulation of some common programming approach with the curing process to become the norm, the large, standardized, repeated import and sales, transfer, deposit the goods data, business conditions in the form of figures or charts to tell users, and to facilitate your testing and modification. It is only a critical mass of the essence of business enterprise management tool, one for business to make money and equipment to power tools.
Practice has proved that a correct positioning of the project selection as well as the implementation can play a strong role in guiding a direct impact on the implementation of the project results. Positioning the theme of "is to manage the project or IT projects" in this issue. This is about the nature of ERP project understanding. ERP project is essentially a management project, rather than a pure IT project, which would involve importing and implementation of all aspects of business management needs of enterprises of traditional management models, business processes, working methods and operating habits systems integration, enterprise Rethinking the management system and continually improve the main line.

Advantage is that means that there are numerous user authentications before you the applicability of the functional, performance, stability, and also can continue to upgrade, is a symbol of maturity, is long-term cooperation with customers, like marriage. Product-oriented also means cost-effective, which is of concern to most customers. Transition generally speaking, low-risk.
Product of deficiency is not time to meet the needs of all the details, the customer needs in the selection, need to be discarded, another product of the escalation of the rhythm may be related to your needs match between the rate of growth is a problem, which requires you to Select the product-oriented vendors are abundant internal resources, processes, smooth, support the protection mechanism of sound vendor.
Is the high cost of the project?
Software is included responsibility for relations between the goods, require complex support system. The software industry has developed to the level of engineering, with a strict division of labor and test links. An operational specification of software provider, from the demand has begun, there is demand for professional personnel collection, extraction, evaluation, applied to form a "conceptual design"; been assessed, the technical expert will take full account many factors put forward the "Architecture Design" , the assessment to the development department until after the formation of "Application Design", the assessment will be after the "code development", and then the "functional test" (such as white-box testing, black box testing, performance testing, stress testing, environmental testing, installation test, etc.), before they can give you. During this period, all the links should be the most high-quality human resources in the protection of the quality, so you do not expect to find a very low-cost supplier is also docile and obedient, according to your instructions quickly and seamlessly to help you achieve their goals.

Third, suppliers, business models, and if the project-based manufacturers, as far as possible only through the price of each item to maximize returns to money, because they do not grasp the product-oriented companies as the same amount of money through client.
