Questions

Should I demo 2020 Insight before choosing Woodsystems?

Yes. Demo 2020 Insight, Woodsystems, and any other serious finalist with the same real job and the same evaluation scorecard. A confident vendor should welcome a direct comparison.

How should we compare implementation?

Ask each vendor to document the first complete workflow, required configuration, data migration, training by role, named responsibilities, dependencies, and the date your team can run a useful live job.

How should we compare pricing?

Compare the same operating scope over the same period. Include software, users, modules, implementation, training, migration, integrations, support, updates, and expected change requests—not merely the first number in a proposal.

How can we judge customer service and product improvement?

Meet the people who will support your account, bring them a real support scenario, ask how escalation works, and request a concrete review of meaningful product changes shipped during the last 90 days.
