Most ERP implementations fail — not because of the software itself, but because of unrealistic expectations set right from the start.

In this video, I break down the “dirty secret” behind why so many companies pour millions into new ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, etc.) only to end up over budget, behind

SAP is under formal EU antitrust investigation.

  • SAP is well known for using aggressive tactics to limit customers’ support options and creating questionable revenue-generating events.

Vendors tout cloud software as a cheaper alternative to traditional on-premise solutions.

  • While cloud solutions can often be implemented at a lower cost, the cost of accessing and using the cloud solution over the life-cycle of the product is often more expensive than an on-premise solution.

I discuss these issues in my latest video.

Vendors often minimize an ERP implementation’s complexity, cost, and length.

  • Their goal is to sell software, not set a customer’s expectations.
  • But are they contributing to ERP failure? Is the customer to blame for believing them?

Understanding your business requirements and how you want your ERP software to address those requirements is critical to success.
