The Top Enterprise Resource Planning Software Products Team Up For 7th ERP Vendor Shootout™, June 16-17, 2010 San Diego, California

An event for mid-sized companies with manufacturing, distribution, or project-oriented requirements to determine "short list" when evaluating Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software

Greensboro, NC (PRWEB) -- Geared toward ERP selection teams and decision makers for companies with a manufacturing, distribution or project-oriented requirements, the ERP Vendor Shootout™ is ideal for businesses that are budgeting for or are currently evaluating Enterprise Resource Planning software. Moderated by Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC) of Montreal, Canada (www.technologyevaluation.com), this event is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for you and your team to quickly build your selection short-list by seeing the best in Enterprise Software Solutions in the world all in one place, all at the same time!

The 7th event, scheduled for June 16-17, 2010 at the San Diego Marriott Hotel and Marina, will include the top ERP packages, presented by resellers in a side-by-side comparison. Past ERP Vendor Shootouts™ have included product demonstrations from Oracle, Microsoft, International Business Systems, Infor, Epicor, SAP, IFS, IQMS, SYSPRO and others.

"Having a remote event allowed us to focus on the ERP selection process for several consecutive days rather than shoe-horning individual web demos between other work meetings and not really absorbing it all." -- IT Manager, Industrial Equipment Distributor

"The scripted demos did allow for an apples-to-apples comparison of the software. It kept them honest (Resellers) and allowed us to view more of the functionality in less than two hours than I have seen in other half-day demos. The Keynote presentation from TEC had a couple of nuggets that will ensure we get company buy-in on our project ... a key element we had lost sight of while deep in feature comparison." -- VP of Finance, Router Manufacturer

The goal of the event is to simplify the ERP software selection process. This event alleviates some of the painful inefficiencies of the selection process by coordinating onsite software presentations and delivering them in a two day event. End-user attendees will see a series of scripted demos from vendors and resellers, gaining a side-by-side, comparative view of product functionality, user interfaces, and overall usability. In addition to the scripted demos, each product presenter will cover additional topics and key functionality specific to each product.

Event sponsors include IBM, IT Toolbox, Manufacturing.Net, Manufacturing Business Technology.
