The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Comarch no pricing is published anywhere on the site for any product line; the only route to cost is a Kontakt z konsultantem (Consultant Contact) request for a quote; GEP SMART gEP sells the software, the consulting and the outsourced procurement team, so the vendor measuring the savings is often the vendor delivering them, which makes independent verification difficult.

Where each one falls short

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

Comarch

  • No pricing is published anywhere on the site for any product line; the only route to cost is a Kontakt z konsultantem (Consultant Contact) request for a quote
  • The ERP line is split across three separately scaled products (Optima for SMBs, XL, Enterprise) with no published criteria distinguishing which a given company should quote

GEP SMART

  • GEP sells the software, the consulting and the outsourced procurement team, so the vendor measuring the savings is often the vendor delivering them, which makes independent verification difficult.
  • Nothing is published and reported entry points around half a million US dollars a year exclude implementation, which GEP typically delivers itself rather than through a competing integrator.
  • Implementation being delivered by the vendor limits the pool of independent consultants who can advise you during the project or take over afterwards.
  • Combined software and services engagements are difficult to unwind, because replacing the platform also means rebuilding procurement capability the outsourcer was providing.
  • The platform is scoped for very large enterprises, so mid-market organisations face both a price and a complexity floor that no module selection brings down.
