Re: ERP Vendors

Careful -- some ERP agreements stipulate that you can use the software for
your company and for any company that your company substantially owns --
not one that owns you!

Re: ERP Vendors






One choice, of course, is for the newly named company to outsource their
entire IT department to a new old-named company. Then there is no name
change. The new, smaller company might also qualify for significantly
reduced annual fees too?

Sometimes all it takes is a counter move to show them how silly their
plan is?

Bob -
Does the contract specify that they can charge for for a name change? If

so, then you should have negotiated that up front before purchasing

their

package. If not, it is actionable. Sue them.

Name the vendor. Punish them here.
I want to know who /NOT/ to buy software from...

Due to a name change, our current ERP vendor wants to charge us an
exorbitant license transfer fee.
