We made a short list of potential solutions, however, not having an idea how to assess them created a great risk. Ultimately, the more risk you layer on with every decision, your risk exponentially balloons. That is why we had to call somebody, and that’s why we called ERP Advisors Group. It was a tremendous help to have ERP Advisors Group hold our hand through the [needs analysis](https://www.erpadvisorsgroup.com/services/needs-assessment). They walked us through the steps of aggregating our needs, framing them, providing them in context, and pulling them together. It was helpful because it involved the broader organization and got people thinking about an ERP, what it needs to do, and what our current ERP isn’t doing. There is no way we could have done this ourselves – that’s why we engaged ERP Advisors Group because we realized doing it ourselves was not going to work. When it came to the [selection](https://www.erpadvisorsgroup.com/services/erp-selection), the demo process was educational and involved the entire organization. The process not only showcased the software, but also outlined what we really needed, and it was extremely helpful. The biggest thing in my mind was ultimately sifting through all the available ERP options and funneling down to a small handful from which to actually dig into. It cut our number of options down and gave me peace of mind knowing that we ended up with the right selection. Had we done it ourselves, we probably would have come to a different conclusion that wouldn’t have been a great fit. EAG was very helpful on the terms and conditions and just what it’s all about. Carly had great input when it came to the contract, and she provided support when we needed it. I would recommend ERP Advisors Group for those looking for help selecting a new ERP. It would not have happened without their help, so I’m very thankful for their team. As we gain momentum in the [implementation ](https://www.erpadvisorsgroup.com/services/erp-implementation)process, we can see the benefits of our new software. I know that it is going to fulfill the needs we identified initially, which is my marker of success.   [![Schedule a Consultation](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/5825957/b1c6480e-ffdb-45c2-8e37-2fc51bcd8519.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/5825957/b1c6480e-ffdb-45c2-8e37-2fc51bcd8519)   ---   ## **About ERP Advisors Group** ![2026 ERP Advisors Group Photo](https://www.erpadvisorsgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Apr-17-2026-05-01-49-4457-PM.jpeg?width=476&height=256&name=undefined-Apr-17-2026-05-01-49-4457-PM.jpeg) ERP Advisors Group only provides software advisory services. Our consultants only work on enterprise software selections and implementations. Therefore, they are experts in conducting software selections and know the pitfalls to avoid as they guide our clients to a successful go-live. You will find our consultants care deeply about your project and are vested as much as you are in making it a success. Ultimately, we will do just about anything to make sure you are a success! ERP Advisors Group was founded by Shawn Windle in 2010. He helped develop the technology practice at the largest accounting firm in Denver from 2004 - 2010 by offering Needs Analysis and Selection projects. But Shawn saw that clients were struggling during their implementations, even though they selected the right software. The firm’s partners were too averse to the risk of losing tax and audit business from a risky implementation. Thus, ERP Advisors Group was born with the purpose to provide Client-Side Implementation Services. We take responsibility for the decisions we help our clients make during the Selection phase by staying on for their implementation, ensuring they go live with their new software.
