ERP selection and evaluation
Choosing an ERP isn't choosing software. It's choosing how your company will run for the next several years. We help organizations define, evaluate, and select the ERP that best fits their processes, objectives, architecture, and investment capacity.

When the ERP stops keeping up with the business
Business growth
The company grew faster than the platform holding it up.
Disconnected systems
Multiple systems that don't talk to each other, with duplicated information.
Manual processes
Parallel spreadsheets to cover what the ERP doesn't solve.
Poor financial visibility
Consolidating operations takes weeks instead of being available in real time.
Obsolete current ERP
The platform stopped getting real support or scaling with the operation.
Expansion to new units or countries
The current ERP can't support the complexity of growing into new geographies.
The ERP that worked when the company was smaller can become a constraint once the organization grows.
Deciding to change ERPs is easy. Picking the right one is hard.
SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Infor, NetSuite, and many other platforms can solve similar problems from different angles.
More features doesn't mean a better fit.
We determine which ERP your organization actually needs
We evaluate the ERP from six perspectives
Functional
Can it support the business's financial, commercial, logistics, and production processes?
Technical
Can it integrate with the current technology architecture without friction?
Economic
What's the total cost of ownership, not just the initial license?
Strategic
Can it support growth and expansion into new units or countries?
Vendor
Who will be behind the platform over the next five years?
Adoption
Will the organization actually use it, or will it end up underused?
From uncertainty to a decision you can back up
"We don't recommend technology off a catalog. Our job isn't to sell a particular platform. We evaluate the available alternatives and build a recommendation based on each organization's needs, priorities, and context. 100% technology-agnostic."
This is what it looks like when the decision does reach execution.
"We decided to work with Cyrrus because it offered us a path to world-class best practices." Today they have a platform that lets them see information live and better understand what's happening with their customers.
"It's not just an ERP change — it's an organization-wide change management process."
Cyrrus helped Morelco implement remote work during the pandemic, adapting working conditions for its employees while maintaining their quality of life and productivity. The solution reinvented how infrastructure projects get done.
Frequently asked questions
As a reference, the CIRA method's Identify phase typically takes 6 to 12 weeks, from the strategic kickoff through contracting support.
We evaluate your current platform against the same six objective criteria, even if changing vendors isn't on the table — sometimes the answer is to optimize, not replace.
Cost depends on scope and organization size, not on a list price. What stays constant is the ratio: selection advisory costs a fraction of the ERP license plus implementation, and its job is to keep that far larger investment from landing on the wrong platform. It is defined with you before starting, with fixed scope and deliverables.
We evaluate against six objective criteria, defined before looking at any brand: functional fit to your real processes, technical viability on your current infrastructure, five-year total cost of ownership (not just the license), vendor strength and experience in your industry, your team's capacity to adopt it, and the long-term sustainability of the product and its roadmap.
Because a vendor has one product to sell and their evaluation will always end at that product. Cyrrus holds no commercial alliances or commissions with any ERP manufacturer: the criteria come from your operation, not from a catalog, and the outcome may well be that the best decision is not to change platforms at all.
