Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Brightpearl

  • No pricing is published, and every quote is described as a bespoke setup
  • Cost is driven by business size rather than by a stated unit, so nothing can be estimated before contacting sales
  • The vendor frames cost as a percentage of revenue, which means the bill grows with turnover rather than with usage

Infor CloudSuite

  • No price, per user rate, minimum or contract term is published for CloudSuite; the site routes buyers to a sales contact form
  • Infor Velocity Suite is advertised as one flat fee but no amount is published
  • CloudSuite runs on Amazon Web Services only, with no other cloud or on premises option stated on the page
  • Functionality is packaged as industry specific CloudSuites rather than one general ERP product
