Smaller vendors challenge SAP, Oracle in ERP market
Smaller vendors challenge SAP, Oracle in ERP market: "The Boston, Mass.-based analyst firm Aberdeen Group recently surveyed 1000 companies of all sizes and found that 71% of companies with more than one ERP system in place intend to consolidate to one vendor in the near future. When asked which vendor they will consolidate to, SAP, Oracle, Infor Global Solutions and QAD were the top four answers.
Cindy Jutras, a vice president and service director with Aberdeen, said that among large companies – those with more than $1 billion in annual revenue – about 80% have more than one ERP system in place, while about 42% of mid-market companies have multiple ERP installations. They survey also found that about 9% of companies currently have no ERP in place at all. "
