I saw quite a few at the last APICS convention I attended. This year it's in
Denver: Oct 21-23.

I would like to get information on the different ERP software options
that are widely use in the manufacturing industry.

Can anyone recommend some annual trade shows to visit that would have
good representation from manufacturing ERP software companies?

Thanks,

John
Just a hunch, but the best place night be a manufacturing show related to the particular type of manufacturing you are interested in. Some ERP vendors specialize in particular markets. Once upon a time Vantage was niched in the job shop arena (JSCS-II or Job Shop Control System-II....became DCD-Classic...became Vantage). Metal fabrication manufacturers might have more success at a show like the precision Metal Forming Association's "Metal Forum" show. Process, descrete and device manufacturers might find a better fit at an industry specific show.

The National Manufacturing Week show in Chicago (area) in Sept. is probably one of the largest all around conferences and is well represented by ERP vendors (including Epicor)...http://www.devicelink.com/expo/nmw07/exhibit/category/ERP.html
