Whether You Should Do an ERP/CRM Project on UNIX

TCOnow! for ERP and CRM on UNIX is an analytical software tool designed to help you decide if you should do an ERP/CRM project on Unix. By answering a limited number of quetsions, TCOnow! will generate a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) comparison for adding or changing your UNIX ERP or CRM solution, or deploying a UNIX infrastructure. You will be able to determine the complete impact of deploying SAP, Oracle or Peoplesoft on AIX, Solaris, or HP-UX.

TCOnow! will allow you to see the effect of using Capacity on Demand. You will also be able to see how changing your risk strategy will impact your system architecture and overall cost. If you are trying to decide if you should do an ERP/CRM project on UNIX, then this is the product for you!

Click any option, in the product matrix below, to see what you can compare.

Interview Process:		You are able to choose from 5 server consolidation strategies, including capacity on demand and from 1 of 17 industry groups (including built-in default costs for employee salaries, benefits, depreciation method and schedule, cost of capital, etc).

Results:		The result is an automatically configured ERP/CRM deployment, complete with financial and technical specifications. Everything you need to present to your CEO, CFO, and deployment team is included in the business case.

A Step Further:		Once you have your analysis, the software enables you to go back in to change any underlying assumptions and see how that changes your Total Cost of Ownership. You can change your database vendor, growth assumptions, financial assumptions, partition or clustering assumptions, and industry warrant and support terms...just to name a few.
