Who publishes Best Mid-Market ERP

Best Mid-Market ERP is published by Black Badger Software Solutions, a software company based in Clearwater, Florida. Black Badger builds custom software, including custom ERPs, for companies that have outgrown the products they rent.

That matters for how you read these lists. A custom build by Black Badger is one of the ranked options on every list, and its entry says so. We take no commission from any vendor named here and have no reseller arrangement with any of them.

How the Best Mid-Market ERP lists are ranked

Each list answers one question for one kind of mid-size company, and the ranking is specific to that question. The same product can be first on one list and sixth on another.

We weigh how much of the business an option covers in one system, how its cost behaves as users, modules and entities are added, and how much outside help it takes to buy and run. The lists are written for companies of roughly 50 to 1,000 employees.

The custom route is ranked like any other option. It sits in the top three on every list because we believe it belongs there for companies of this size, and it is first only where the question is about outgrowing an ERP tier.

Where the facts on Best Mid-Market ERP come from

How each option charges, its plan names and its limits are read from each vendor's own website, and every entry shows the date they were read and links to the page. No prices are printed on this guide. Each entry says how the option charges and lists its pros and cons. Most ERP vendors publish no price. When that is the case the entry says so and does not estimate one.

Vendors change their pricing often. If you find a fact here that no longer matches the vendor's page, the vendor's page is right.

How often Best Mid-Market ERP is updated

Every page shows the date it was last updated. The facts are rechecked against the vendors' sites on a regular cycle, and the rankings are revisited when a product, a price or a limit changes enough to matter.
