Editorial Reviews
Review
"A business professional may only select an ERP system once or twice in their career. Don't go into the process without a guide. Chris Kutt has guided hundreds of companies through this process successfully. I highly recommend this book to anyone tasked with this critical responsibility as a tool to understand the ERP landscape, the factors to consider to choose the right solution and consulting partner, and how to stay on-course for a successful implementation." - Matt Kenney, Principal, National ERP Leader

- Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2024An excellent guide for those considering a new ERP system. Covers all the steps and highlights items to watch out for. A well-written and very readable book.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2023I purchased this book for my husband who has been involved in quite a few implementations in his career. These are his comments:
"Wow, I wish I had a resource like this to help people understand the ins and outs of ERP. Many people view a new ERP system as a scary change. In fact, it can be a serious drain on company resources and spend if not well thought out and a firm commitment by all stakeholders. Kutt does an excellent job of leading people through identifying the current state challenges through the future state vision of a well-integrated ERP package. This book is a roadmap that will address the scary uncertainties and lead to success for all involved.
There's no question in my mind that this book is one of the most important resources for all professionals considering a new enterprise-wide system. I highly recommend!"
- Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2023This book is a must-read for professionals in the seeking to improve efficiencies and effectiveness in the marketplace. Kutt walks us through the journey from evaluating and understanding the benefits to best practices for implementation.
His thoughtfulness and expertise on this subject is unmatched!
We have begun our journey here at BluePoint and look forward to full-on implementation with Kutt's guidance.
Great read! Highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2023“ERP with Confidence” provides systems guidance and solutions for streamlining and automating operational business processes, integrating business functions, robust reporting and analytics tools, better compliance and security, adapting to a changing growing business, cost efficiency and budgeting.
Kutt explains how to select, implement and use the right ERP system.
Questions are answered on how leveraging technology to can gain and maintain a competitive advantage. If you think your company is just a small company, this book is a must read.
If you your company is going through evolutionary period associated with growth or lack of growth, system limitations, environmental factors, then this book is for you.
I learned a lot reading this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2023I've been on the opposite side of the table from the author in that I've been implementing and supporting ERP systems and the additional software that interfaces with them for over 20 years. I've read most of this book up to the implementation chapter.
Mr. Kutt nails the different approaches companies take to either succeed or fail when deciding on which ERP package to purchase. He's correct that typically you need to work with a controller at a company and not the CFO (who rarely logs in), you won't understand the licensing and everything exports to Excel! There is also some insight on cloud vs on prem which is also helpful. I've sat in the demos he references and in the end it didn't matter about what features one package had versus another...it came down to price.
I think the individual who would benefit the most from reading this book would be a finance person who is faced with having to choose a new system either from growing too big for their current system or via a merger where you have pick which package to move forward with. There is no "How to Buy an ERP System" taught in college so I think it's a really good guide on what to do and not to do.
