    Hi, we have around 30 raw materials to manufacture a  single product. What software do you think will be apt for us ? We are a small to medium scale production unit.
    Thanks

    Get Relief from the effects of Covid-19.
    Put your Business on the Growth Track.

    The Pandemic has left no stone unturned, affecting every walk of life & business. Just like any other problem, how you respond to it matters much and that will determine your success. One such thing would be to make use of this lean period and digitize your business, preparing it to sweep the upcoming opportunities.

    I’m getting headhunted from an aerospace company. They are currently looking to replace their ERP system- what ERP system would you recommend? This company makes rockets to launch various items (i.e. satellites into space).



  5. Doug Brannies on October 15, 2021 at 9:05 am

    This was very helpful, thank you.



  6. Calvin Pollard on October 15, 2021 at 9:05 am

    Curious why SYSPRO was not on the list?



  7. Aartika Sardana Chandras on October 15, 2021 at 9:10 am

    Ramco Systems has been featured multiple times in the Gartner MQ, and is definitely in the race of the Top contenders based on the criteria mentioned in the video. https://www.ramco.com/erp-suite/

    thanks for sharing



  12. Kuang Huangying on October 15, 2021 at 9:18 am

    Hi, thank you for a great video! For Infor though, does the ranking only apply to Infor CloudSuite? How would Infor LN perform in your ranking system?



  13. fekretad on October 15, 2021 at 9:18 am

    What about SAGE X3 …?



  14. Ridwan Jogee on October 15, 2021 at 9:22 am

    Very Informative…
    please share your thoughts on which is a better product to build a career in, between Infor Ln and Netsuit ?



  19. Abhinav Singh on October 15, 2021 at 9:31 am

    Mr Kimberling you never mention about SAP Business One that too on cloud. I would request you to position SAP B1 in your next video. Thanks



  20. Zohaib Ali on October 15, 2021 at 9:31 am

    I want to know some thing about odoo. How do you see it.



  21. Inderdeep Singh on October 15, 2021 at 9:36 am

    Hi.. did u ever do a similar session for healthcare , hospital ERP



  22. rushanth aredla on October 15, 2021 at 9:37 am

  23. Martin Rodriguez on October 15, 2021 at 9:37 am

    Thanks erik. That was really helpful. We are looking for an erp for machining shop. Up to know we are thinking in proshop erp. What do you think about it?



  24. Edmond Hong on October 15, 2021 at 9:37 am

    When you mention Microsoft D365 in all your videos, are you referring to Microsoft Dynamics AX/F&O or Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Business Central). D365 has 2 ERP Products so we are confused when you mentioned D365 without referring to which ERP product?



  25. Fun Seekers on October 15, 2021 at 9:40 am

    what do you think of ECI M1?



  26. Isuru on October 15, 2021 at 9:41 am

  27. Derek Morgan on October 15, 2021 at 9:46 am

    Hi, Thank you for the videos they give a lot of insight. I notice Global Shop does not show on any of your ERP rankings and wonder what is restricting it from being mentioned. Looking at their marketing and videos seems to be the full package so just wonder what is limiting it.



  28. Muhie v Loggerenberg on October 15, 2021 at 9:46 am

    Acumatica



  29. Mahmoud LuLu on October 15, 2021 at 9:46 am

    Any feedback/review regarding CSB ERP?



  30. Fredrik Sætre on October 15, 2021 at 9:47 am

    Something is happening with Dynamics… https://youtu.be/blXvCkDi1NI



  31. Egon on October 15, 2021 at 9:54 am

    This list is so outdated:) Whre is Odoo for example?



  32. Andre aziz on October 15, 2021 at 9:55 am
