Hey, this is my first post on this board.
I have a bistro cafe. Presently I think of digitizing our back-office works including vendor management. A food business has to maintain and manage a lot of vendors every day, among all the tasks we do, vendor management is the difficult one.
In the beginning, I was thinking of getting both the document management system and vms, but at present, I can only afford one as I'm running on a tight budget.
I wanted to purchase customized software, but my current financial scenario is a deal-breaker and I can't wait too long to get it too. As a temporary remedy, I'm opting for any SharePoint applications as I assume it would be of low cost. If I could get a good app at an optimal cost, I can afford a Microsoft SharePoint documentation system too.
I am not at all familiar with any of these, yet I want to upgrade the standard of our business operations. Long back I got an email newsletter from Dock 365, as I know no other business software providers, I contacted them to get educated about the procedures involved in a vendor management service.
I got a detailed mail explanation and they have invited me to their office for discussing more their cost and policies. But before heading with it I would like to get a general idea on the expense of purchasing a VMS or VSI, also the cost of maintenance and getting an upgrade if needed.
I hope experts on this board can help me with this.
Many thanks.
Hello Maymee25,
You can have an initial look at available apps on the MS AppSource.
They can be tested for free for a limited time, which gives you an idea of the app is the one you look out for.
In addition, contact your next MS office; the people there should be able to help you in regards to companies who could help you implementing things.
Best regards,
Ludwig
