Maintenance Fees is a Insurance you actually need for your ERP Software
Just about every software vendor will require you to pay an annual fee based on a percentage of the software list price.
This fee has various aliases such as maintenance fee or enhancement plan.
The percentage can lower after the first year. The plan may not always be required, but it is always strongly recommended.In addition, your Partner may have their own annual maintenance plan for support calls, preventative maintenance checks or other services.
Tips to Save on maintenance fees :
Buy only what you need for Phase 1 of your project. The lower your initial software list price, the less money you will pay for maintenance. If you buy something you dont implement for another year, you just wasted money on the maintenance fee.
Maintenance fees are like insurance. We all wish we didnt have to pay it but when we needed it,we are sure glads it;s there. So, just add the maintenance fee into your annual budget and leave it there
