Your Options in Order Management Systems

Though not all of these entry-level systems are literally sold shrink-wrapped, they may share several characteristics:
- They’re inexpensive, costing a few hundred to a few thousand dollars for a handful of users.
- The user sets up the system on his own.
- Users don’t typically get initial training from the vendor, though it may offer some general training classes.
- The systems generally aren’t customized by the vendor for any one user, even though they are, in fact, configurable.
