Finally, you have shortlisted your list of potential software vendors. What happens next? Use the checklist below when meeting with a delivery management software vendor to discuss your chosen software package.

1.      Cost of the software package

Not all software plans have unified costing. If you want to be sure you are paying the right amount for a particular software package, inquire with the potential software vendor the estimated cost of the delivery management software version you want. Don’t forget to ask what other fees that will be charged on you after the software’s installation.

2.      Software package coverage

Another top concern you need to check when discussing your software package plan with a prospective software vendor is the coverage. Ask these questions to ensure you know exactly what you are paying for.

–          Is the installation process inclusive of the price?

–          Who will train your employees?

–          Are other fees may apply in events of annual maintenance, regular updates or troubleshooting?

3.      Software package warranty issue

Buying a delivery management software package can be very costly, especially if you want the newest version. For your peace of mind that you are protected against receiving a defective product, verify with the software vendor the terms covering warranty. A credible software vendor will explain fully your right as a buyer and warranty coverage should never be left out during your meeting.

4.      Software demo

Don’t just buy a software package recommend by the software vendor without a software demo presented. Why? This will give you a clear idea on how efficient the proposed software package and if it complies with your preferences based on features and functionality.

5.      Software customization

Lastly, before you invest your money to any software package plan, investigate further if the software you want to buy can be customized in the future. If the software vendor can’t guarantee that the software is customizable, look for another software package that can be customized as your business grows.
