question for IT consultants

[garza]

How much would you charge to help implement a CRM type software for a small/medium size business? I know there are a lot factors that play a role in the cost but off the top your head what would you charge?

Thank you!

Are you talking hourly rate or a flat fee?

Question #1 which solution are you looking at?

SFDC?

Connectwise?

Other?

What size company? Small to Medium is too generic.

How many employees? >50, 50-100

I have used the two above and Connectwise is by far much easier to manage.

If you need someone in the Dallas / Fort Worth area shot me a PM and I can get you in touch with someone local.

I was thinking more of a flat fee.

Thank you!

You are going to have to provide a number of team members/users to get an accurate cost estimate from someone because of licensing. As said above, "medium" is too generic to get a cost estimate. I don't do this, but have been involved in a few implementations as the engineer. Good luck, I wish I could help more.

Can you give us more details to go off of? As others are saying, these things can range a wide gap in costs based on the situation.
Are you the lone installer/implementer? Are you part of a team? Are you billing the customer directly or are you a Sub for the company who is the installer? Size of the client company (by users not $$)? Will you be training? Will you be the one migrating or setting up the information in the software?
The list of questions could keep on going...

75 people give or take a few. It would be providing the necessary hardware (server) and software (SQL, IIS, etc..) so the software company can come in and implement. This company doesn't have a on staff IT person so I would be responsible for providing the requirements for the implementation. This would also include maintenance also.

thank you sir!

no the software company will be the implementer. I would be the IT liaison per SE for the company. No team. i would be billing the company directly. there is a possibility of training. I know there is a ton of questions. I'm just trying to get a feeling for a ball park figure and go from there. Thank you sir!

not an IT guru but why couldn't you go with a CRM that is cloud based so that you alleviate the hardware and software requirement?

It will be cloud based. My mistake I should mentioned the servers will be VMs in Azure.
