2010 from Epicor – “…Organizations can typically choose from four principal types of ERP vendor partners who deliver solutions around the following models:

Partner ecosystems
Frameworks
Integrated best-of-breed

May 6, 2010 from Software Advice – “…How truly integrated is the integrated suite vendor’s offering? If the ERP vendor acquired the system, it may not be “truly” integrated.

Systems

An ERP system automates business processes across most, if not all, departments within an organization of any size or industry. Our definition of ERP encompasses accounting systems, which can automate business processes across departments within a smaller company.

The products have been segregated by tier based on target customer and price. Within each tier, we have further classified which applications are applicable to the systems as well as the distribution model. See the filter box above to sort for the desired tier, application, and distribution model.

Tier One/Enterprise (Customer Revenues > $200M, Customer Employees > 500, License Fees > $300k and Implementation Fees:License Fees > 2:1)

Tier Two/Mid Market (Customer Revenues $10M-$200M, Customer Employees 50-500, License Fees $50k-$300k and Implementation Fees:License Fees 1:1-2:1)

Tier Three/Entry Level (Customer Revenues <$10M, Customer Employees <50, License Fees <$50k and Implementation Fees:License Fees <1:1)
