How does one go about choosing a software vendor after having seen many presentations from many software vendors, from a user preference perspective?
I ask this question on behalf of a friend who has been put in charge of making such an evaluation, without any prior experience. I thought the experience of the SO community might generate something considerably more useful than a bit of googling.
Domain specificity is not important, but if it helps at all the systems currently being evaluated are Treasury systems and ERP (Electronic Resource Planning).
Thanks in advance for any help/ideas offered.
