| Abstract: | Due to their limited human, technical, and financial resources, small firms usually purchase packaged software to meet their organizational needs for IS. The selection is usually made either by the owner or a manager. A key question is whether they use the same set of criteria. This study examines the question, and finds that owners and managers of small businesses have different views on the importance of the factors in their selection decision. Owners tend to take a more strategic view of software package selection. |
