An OA system how much money
With the popularity of information technology, OA product technology is becoming increasingly mature, more and more companies recognize the value of OA product applications, have formulated the OA implementation plan, ready to go on a set of suitable OA office automation system. In the end on the OA system involves what costs it, I will list the general cost of productized OA for reference.
One, OA product purchase costs
1, the number of licensed users costs
Currently, most OA products are licensed in accordance with the number of users pricing, there are only a few OA products are not limited to the number of client users. Because the mainstream OA systems are B/S, the client does not need to install the system, so I recommend choosing the kind of OA products that do not limit the number of users, such as Cheng Yuan OA.
2, the basic platform costs
In addition to the number of licensed users offer, some manufacturers want to charge a platform fee. Or another way, there is a minimum charge, including a certain number of users, such as 50 users, 20 users. A few OA products come with a support platform, do not limit the number of users, which greatly improves the cost-effectiveness of OA products, such as Cheng Yuan OA.
3, expansion module costs ?
Many manufacturers will be divided into different versions of OA products, such as popular version, Enterprise Edition, Enhanced Edition, etc., in fact, is a combination of different modules of the product. On the one hand, the fixed module of the OA product personalization is relatively weak, on the other hand, the accumulation of impractical functional modules resulting in a waste of funds. It is recommended that customers in accordance with the actual needs of the purchase of modules, or directly choose the module can be self-customized personalized OA products, such as the Cheng Yuan OA. do not be greedy for the whole, we must know that the best is the best.
4, servers, operating systems and database costs
In accordance with the size of the number of business users, the general software vendors will recommend the configuration of the server, if the number of users is not much, you can also use high-end PC instead of a server. For different user needs, different combinations of system selection can be used, the use of Tomcat + mysql (open source free) combination, the input cost is very low; the use of weblogic / websphere + oracle (commercial products), is a high-end combination that can support clusters, to adapt to large-scale applications to meet the needs of more complex applications.
Two, OA system implementation and promotion costs
In addition to the purchase cost of the product, you must also pay for the implementation of the product, that is, the installation of the product, the product to do some personalized settings, as well as training of system administrators and end users. Currently the implementation of training generally account for 10% -30% of the software costs. There are also some OA due to simple operation, easy to use and easy to maintain, do not need to implement the training fee, such as Cheng Yuan OA.
Three, OA system maintenance costs
General OA products within a year are free of charge, a year after the service fee will be charged, you can charge according to the number of times the service, you can also be charged on an annual basis, generally 10% of the software costs. However, some OA products such as Cheng Yuan OA, through the remote can be maintained, which is faster and more convenient than door-to-door, saving time and effort, but also can save a maintenance fee. If the operation of the problem, through the network or telephone can be solved immediately; such as system functionality problems, identified after the local modification can be sent to the customer; such as the customer's own problems, send system logs and screenshots to understand the truth of the problem, can be solved remotely after the problem can be solved.
Four, OA system secondary development costs
Generally productized software, will continue to introduce upgraded products, users need to pay for upgraded products, of course, you can also choose not to upgrade. But most business users in the use of OA systems for a period of time, often because of business development and new needs, the need to upgrade the original OA system or secondary development. At this time the OA system comes with a support platform advantage is very obvious, such as the platform type OA model - Cheng Yuan OA, the user does not need to rely on the OA provider, through the background customization can be achieved by modifying the function of the existing functional modules, change the business logic, or add new functional modules and other common secondary development.
