- Not a software vendor: we neither develop nor sell ERP software.
- Not a single-vendor sales channel: the portal is vendor-neutral and tied to no manufacturer.

How the editorial team works
The content is based on a structured function matrix across 42 ERP vendors, evaluated product screenshots, vendor documentation and publicly available sources. Pages explaining terms, standards and methods are built as citable fact bases: a canonical definition at the top, a clear disambiguation against similar terms, and a visible date. Assessments of individual solutions follow transparent criteria and are independent of advertising relationships.
