ERP.com is focused on bringing valuable tools and information to the ERP community; the practitioner, consultant, and the applications to help make all parties more productive and successful in their business endeavors. The ability to get in to the roots of a complex enterprise system is a great benefit in determining whether a complex ERP implementation will be a success. “In the dozens of enterprise implementations and integrations I have worked on, they were all more complicated than originally anticipated. Having access from a developers level to play around with how the system will work with the company’s current applications is a great help in reducing the unknowns” says Michael Lindsay, an enterprise consultant for Lucent technologies.

As well as the new software trials, ERP.com also provides user generated reviews of products as well as an open forum to post products and open jobs and consulting gigs in the ERP space on the site.
