| What matters | Simetta | In-app guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Guidance on the screen | In the simulator | On the live system |
| Safe place to make mistakes | A sandbox that resets | Mistakes are real transactions |
| Practice rare or risky situations | Credit holds, variances, returns on demand | Only when they happen |
| Scores and explains the work | Every attempt | Usage analytics, not scoring |
| Covers every application you run | ERP roles, one ERP at a time | Built for many applications |
| Sized for mid-market distributors | Per person or yearly, priced for mid-market | Third-party estimates start around $24,000 a year |
Where in-app guidance is better
- Guidance appears in the real system, at the moment someone needs it.
- One platform can cover many applications, not just the ERP.
- Strong for rolling out changes to software people already know.
Where Simetta is better
- People learn where mistakes cost nothing, before they touch real orders.
- The situations that hurt, like a credit hold or a price variance, can be practiced before they happen.
- A score and a debrief after every attempt, and a readiness report for managers.
Using both
They solve different problems. In-app guidance helps people use software they know; Simetta gets new people ready before they use it.
