Buying issues
Article Abstract:
Buying business software can be a complex issue, but the most important rule is to formulate a specification of what is need from the software and how people will use it. In some cases, new software may need a new and more powerful computer, which will be many times the cost of any associated software. Points to consider when buying software include its price, the amount of support that is required and the licence arrangement.
