IFS

  • No price, per user rate, minimum commitment or contract term is published on the site; the only route to a figure is a demo booking
  • IFS Cloud is sold as an industry specific composable suite rather than as a priced product with published editions

Ramco

  • Pricing is not published
  • The aviation line is the focus, so a buyer outside airlines, MRO, defence or rotorcraft is looking at a narrower fit than the ERP name suggests
  • Deployment options are not spelled out beyond multi-tenant capability
