2. Is the provider’s solution consistent with the company’s process?

Each company or industry will have its own processes of production, business, management, etc. Different workflows will create different operating procedures. Therefore, solution provider must consult and adapt its solutions depending on the characteristics of each Enterprise.

In addition, the solution must be integrated with other systems such as SAP, MS AX, and MS NAV… to be able to provide the best support to enterprise management process.

3. Enterprise Support Policies:

Policies that can be provided to Enterprises are security policy, consultancy and implementation policy, and post-project support policy.

• Information and Customer Data Privacy Policy is one of the factors that businesses need to consider in selecting their providers.
• Support policies for project implementation: It takes time for the project to be implemented, and the technology process needs to be accommodated by the staff so that project provider may meet training needs to support the staff in applying the solution.
• Post-project support policy: Customer support service is very important. Errors may arise in the process of applying the software; therefore, 24/7 support is absolutely necessary.

4. Consult the Feedbacks and Opinions of Customers that Use the Products:

The most objective and honest evaluator for a product or service is the customer that uses that product or service. Please refer to other companies of the same scale, industries, sectors, etc. that have applied the solution to evaluate the effect of that solution on their business?

They have extensive experience in deploying a variety of businesses, international standard processes, strong and experienced resources in a variety of industries that will help companies take advantages of their solutions.

5. Is the software customizable, editable, and scalable?

In the development process, enterprises can expand their business scale, change their production and distribution processes… So, when choosing the solution for implementation, they should pay attention to software scalability. Businesses should select local suppliers as they will be more responsive to the requirements of customization than foreign suppliers.
