In searching for ERP vendors that focus on small-to-medium sized businesses, I found on Software Insider, was a list of a vast amount of ERP vendors according to the size of business.
The top most, and highly rated ERP Vendor I chose was MasterTools. What I found interesting was that this software is a proprietary license, which is a closed source software (and cannot be modified by anyone). This software is bought "as-is", and the business must work with this vendor because it offers a vast amount of features, and working with the business and vendor will help accomplish what is needed for their particular business and what will make sense. I really liked how simple their website was set up. They made it clear to anyone who viewed their website what their business cliental consisted of, and what components their software can offer each business.
Another ERP vendor I found was Interprise Suite. They are also a proprietary license and require vendor to business contact, to provide the appropriate features for their business. I noticed that this software is offered on a variety of platforms, such as mobile, online, and on premise.
I like how using Software Insider you can actually see where their functionality ratings are, which can help business that are looking for critical criteria. With the functionality ratings for Interprise Suite's, their accounting and CRM is very high, unlike their maintenance and manufacturing components which are extremely low.
Open source software is software that is publicly available, and modifiable to anyone. In searching for open-source software, I found Datamation, which lists the open source software list of 2015. The list ranges from education office tool software, to website editors. Such open source softwares that I found and recognize were: TurboCASH, Audacity, and WordPress.
