Where each one falls short

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

Cin7

  • No free trial mentioned
  • Standard plan includes only 6,000 orders annually, average 500/month
  • User counts are fixed per tier: 5 users on Standard, 10 on Pro, 15 on Advanced
  • Advanced warehouse management only on Advanced plan (minimum $1,199/month)
  • Pricing excludes taxes

SYSPRO

  • SYSPRO is sold and implemented mainly through partners, so implementation quality varies more than the software does, and the reference you need is the partner's on a project like yours rather than the vendor's customer list.
  • The cloud offering is hosted single-tenant infrastructure rather than multi-tenant SaaS, so you continue to own the upgrade project and the testing it requires, and buyers expecting the vendor to handle version changes for them are mistaken.
  • Payroll and human resources coverage varies substantially by region and is absent or partial in several markets, so a buyer assuming a complete back office in one licence will be adding a separate vendor and an integration.
  • Adjacent capability such as customer relationship management, advanced planning and business intelligence is thinner than in the larger suites, so most installations end up with third party products alongside and the integration cost belongs in the business case.
  • The user interface and reporting reflect a long product history rather than current design conventions, which raises training effort and makes the product a harder sell internally to staff who use consumer-grade software elsewhere.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Cin7: What is the minimum cost to start using Cin7?

Cin7 Core Standard plan costs $349/month (USD), including 5 users, 6,000 annual sales orders, and 2 integrations. Pricing excludes taxes.

Source
SYSPRO: Is SYSPRO a cloud ERP?

It is available hosted on Azure, but as your own instance rather than as shared multi-tenant software. That gives you control over when you upgrade and leaves the upgrade work with you and your partner.

Cin7: How many users are included on each Cin7 plan?

Standard includes 5 users, Pro includes 10 users, and Advanced includes 15 users. Cin7 Omni is customizable with 8 base users.

Source
SYSPRO: Who implements it?

Regional partners in most markets, with the vendor's own offices involved to differing degrees by country. Establish which entity holds your contract and who provides first-line support before you sign.

Cin7: What sales order limits apply to each plan?

Standard supports 6,000 orders annually, Pro supports 24,000 orders annually, and Advanced supports 120,000 orders annually. Cin7 Omni has flexible order volumes.

Source
SYSPRO: What size of company is it for?

Small and mid-sized manufacturers and distributors, roughly in the tens to low hundreds of millions in revenue. Below that it is more system than most businesses need. Well above it, the multi-country and consolidation demands usually push buyers to a larger suite.

Cin7: Does Cin7 offer material requirements planning on all plans?

No, material requirements planning is only available on Pro ($599/month) and Advanced ($1,199/month) plans. The Standard plan does not include this feature.

Source
SYSPRO: Does the licence tell me the project cost?

No. As with most mid-market ERP, the partner services and data migration bill commonly matches or exceeds the first year of software, and the subscription usually begins before go live, so plan for both from the start.
