The Real Questions (9)
uNow ask yourself “What is the best investment
for our business?” This is the question that
usually doesn’t get asked, because there is a
“hidden agenda”.
uBe sure to validate your esitmates above by
talking to several other companies who have
recently undertaken a similar implementation,
and ask yourself “what do they have to gain”?
uRemember that several software suppliers limit
customers ability to speak honestly in the
software license agreement.
