The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

What is the best technology to develop an ERP/E-commerce?

Asked by Armytech01 in ERP Software, Programming for ASP.NET, PHP and Databases

Tags: PHP, ASP.NET

I have an offshore client who is interested on developing a web based ERP as backend and E-commerce for frontend.

He wants to do an amazon-like system but on a very smaller scale.

He wants to replace his current system, which I think is a combination of Excel and some ancient FoxPro software.

He would use the ERP to manage inventories, etc and then the E-commerce for the customers/suppliers.

Then he would give his suppliers a version of the ERP to connect everything together. I guess his suppliers are willing to pay part of the whole thing

He says he started some part of the ERP using ASP.NET and SQL server, but he does know that is the best option, since I told him what open source was.

I have some experience with the technologies but more at a macro level, not at the development level.

Of what I understand he would need something like:
1. E-commerce
- Front end website
- Back end website for customers and suppliers
- Admin module for Front End (I guess update pages, etc)
- Admin module for Back end

2. ERP
- Back end
- Admin module for backend
- A module to connect the ERP to the E-commerce

This might be too many questions, but I would like to get an idea of what is needed to develop this project.

1. Build something from scratch or use something already developed and customize.

2. Use PHP and mySQL on Linux?

3. Use .NET and SQL on Windows Server
- Since he started doing something here, would it be better to continue this or change to open source?
- What compatibilities are there on PHP with .NET or SQL with mySQL

4. Support for other languages than english.

Please let me know a rough idea what it could be done
