Software Advice launched its Manufacturing Software Advice service yesterday, a free online resource that helps manufacturers find the right software for their enterprise. Software applications covered on Software Advice includes enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), supply chain management (SCM) and financial accounting.
By taking advantage of the Software Advice Web site, manufacturers can research and compare leading enterprise software systems. Additionally, manufacturers can contact Software Advice's team of experts to receive:

-- Free telephone "short list" consultations
-- Product demonstrations and price quotes
-- Answers to common software questions
-- Information on the latest trends and best practices

"Manufacturers face an incredibly complex array of software options," said Don Fornes, founder and CEO of Software Advice. "When evaluating enterprise solutions, manufacturers must consider which systems address their industry, their mode of manufacturing, their functional requirements and numerous other criteria. It's exactly the type of challenge we set out to solve when we started Software Advice four years ago."
Behind the Software Advice Web site is a sophisticated database with detailed information on leading software systems. Meanwhile, the company's proprietary matching technology helps buyers quickly narrow down which software products meet their criteria. Manufacturers are able to develop a “short list” of systems to evaluate further, saving weeks of research effort.
Software Advice also serves as a powerful marketing channel for software vendors, who receive highly qualified sales referrals when buyers request information about their products. Currently, Software Advice profiles market leading products from vendors such as SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, Epicor and IFS, among others. Participating vendors serve a range of industries and manufacturing modes.
