What belongs on this list – and what doesn't?

We collect recurring study series and market analyses with an ERP focus for the German-speaking region: user satisfaction studies, investment reports, market and functional overviews, and service-provider benchmarks. One-off whitepapers, individual papers and „studies“ published by a single ERP vendor are deliberately excluded. The academic „ERP TrendRadar“ of the University of Potsdam is listed on our page of academic ERP sources.

How do we label the studies?

Each card transparently names the publisher type (user group, market research, analyst, consultancy, trade medium), the publication rhythm and the access model (free, registration or paid). Commissioned studies by consultancies are explicitly flagged as such, even where the fieldwork is done by a neutral institute. For publishers that run their own selection portals we show the address as plain text without a link. Note that most of these studies are published in German.

How did we select and verify?

We researched the DACH study landscape and verified every series individually: does it still exist, when did the last edition appear and how solid is the data basis. Discontinued classics such as the Konradin ERP study or the Aachen market survey (Marktspiegel) are deliberately not listed. The international ERP studies and analyst reports are collected on a separate page.
