Are you looking
for computer software to improve your business or to
replace existing computer systems? We can help you find what you need and determine whether it
will really meet all your objectives or not.
Many businesses
waste time and resources by acquiring computer software that turns out to not meet their needs.Vendors of software will often “oversell”
their product, assuring you that their application
will “handle all your requirements.”You may benefit from having someone with more
computer experience review your requirements and the
features of the software that you are considering
before you make the investment of money and effort
that it takes to determine whether the software is
really adequate for your purposes. (Click

The
internet makes
it possible to find many alternatives when seeking a
new application to support your business. Some
may be what you need, but many more will not be
appropriate, and will cost you substantially if you
make the mistake of buying them. Some of the questions you will want to consider
include:
Does the
application offer all the features that you will need?
Is the application
reliable and ”bug free”?
Will it run on your
current computer configuration?
Is it
compatible with
other software that you are dependent upon?
Will it be easy for your
personnel to learn and operate?
Is it developed on a
current software platform, or is it written in a
language that is obsolescent?
Does the vendor provide
adequate documentation for the users of the software?
Is the vendor a stable,
reliable provider that you can depend upon as long as
you plan to use the application?
What value will the
application be to you if the vendor stops supporting
it?
Is the vendor committed
to enhancing the software in the future?
The answers to
these and many other questions will determine the
viability of any particular application for your
business. Does your staff have the time and
experience to be able to answer all these questions
accurately in a timely fashion while they are
continuing to carry out their other responsibilities?
Most businesses do not keep that level of resources on
hand and would benefit from engaging an outside
consultant who can work on this demanding and
critical project without jeopardizing other important
business functions.
We can search the
internet thoroughly for all the software that is
available that might meet your needs, evaluate the
relevant features of the applications in regard to
your particular operations, consider the attributes of
the vendor of the software, check references on the
vendor and the software, and compare multiple applications
to help you determine which would be better suited for
your purposes, all without interfering with your
normal business operations.
