Today, with the rapid development of scientific and technological information, the variety of software is dizzying. How to choose a truly useful software is difficult for outsiders, not to mention insiders, without painstaking research and simulated experience. Make the right decisions. However, do you need to experience so many software slowly? Let’s not talk about whether outsiders can have such an experience. Even if they can, they can’t afford the energy and time. So, how to choose a software that suits you? The author gives you some suggestions based on his many years of application experience in the software industry:
1. Position your own management needs. After these requirements are listed, analyze which are rigid requirements and which are auxiliary secondary requirements. Then choose the software with a clear goal. In short, choosing software that can meet basic usage needs is the key to choosing software. What are the basic rigid needs? Let’s use the analogy of opening a restaurant. What are the restaurant’s needs? From the analysis of the restaurant business process, if you choose the basic needs that the software must achieve, my personal experience summary must have the following functions: 1. Flexible ordering function; 2. Kitchen scoring function that changes as needed; 3. Dishes delivery process Management; 4. Flexible and changeable processing capabilities for consumer orders (such as adding orders, canceling orders, making additional orders, canceling orders, giving orders, transferring orders, switching channels, changing channels...etc.); 5. Flexible Purchase function; 6. Comprehensive and accurate reporting system; 7. Flexible membership management; 8. Perfect inventory management; 9. Cost management; 10. Performance management. Of course, depending on your industry positioning, there are some functions you may not want, so you don’t have to worry too much when choosing software, such as performance management and cost management. If other functions are enough for you to make a decision, then the ones you don’t care about are auxiliary options. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have them. It’s best if you have them. So, what are the auxiliary functions? I still want to express my own opinions, don’t just talk without practicing. Let’s take the catering industry as an example. What are the common “clairvoyance”, “boss assistant”, “WeChat ordering”, “WeChat marketing”... and other things related to the Internet and cloud data that are common in the market now? Editors all think that for restaurants, they are just auxiliary functions. If the management software is good enough, then accessing these systems will be even more powerful; if the management software is only generally usable or even want to be discarded, then these functions are just a mirage. But it couldn't hit the ground. Many current software, in order to cater to publicity needs, spend a lot of energy developing and promoting things that look beautiful but are actually useless when applied when their most basic business processing functions are not yet satisfied, which has led to many merchants choosing It is a contradictory situation that it is not used enough and it is a pity to throw it away. Think about it, everyone, a piece of software that doesn’t even have basic functions is worth talking about.
2. In fact, everyone has the basic functions, but the most important thing is to look at the details. A lot of flexibility has been used above, but it actually refers specifically to details. A software that handles details well not only reflects the humanity of the software, but also reflects the professionalism of the software company in this field. Only truly professional companies can refine customer needs and then reflect them in software applications.
3. The popularity of the software. The more well-known software has more customers, the more it will be tested by the market. For this, you need to look at the application cases of the software and consult the word-of-mouth effects of friends who are in the same industry around you.
4. Personal experience and personal use. If the above issues are recognized, then the next step is to ask the staff of the relevant software company to introduce the functions of the software to you in person. See how the staff explains to you the basic functions of the software. What flexible applications can the software have? If necessary, install a trial version of the program to experience it yourself.
Finally, let me emphasize that first is the key! ! ! !
