First and foremost, a great ERP demo should be well-prepared. This means conducting thorough research on the company and its industry, as well as understanding its specific business challenges and goals. This information should be used to tailor the demo to the audience, highlighting features and capabilities that will be most relevant and valuable to them.

In addition to being well-prepared, a great ERP demo should be engaging and interactive. Instead of simply talking at the audience, the presenter should encourage participation and ask questions to ensure that the audience is fully engaged and understanding the information being presented.


One way to make a demo more engaging is to use real-life examples and case studies. This helps to illustrate how the ERP system has been successfully implemented in other companies and how it can benefit the audience's business.

Another important aspect of a great ERP demo is to focus on the user experience. The presenter should show how the system is easy to use and navigate, with a user-friendly interface that allows employees to quickly access the information they need.

Finally, a great ERP demo should leave the audience with a clear understanding of the next steps and how to move forward with implementing the system. This might include a discussion of pricing and availability, as well as a plan for training and support to ensure a smooth transition.

Overall, a great ERP demo should be tailored to the specific needs of the audience, engaging and interactive, and focused on the user experience. By highlighting the value and benefits of the system, a well-prepared and effective demo can help a company make an informed decision about investing in an ERP system.
