01 / Define the job
Your evaluation brief
02 / Normalize the proposals
Compare the plan you would actually buy
Use the same scope, term, user count, and modules. Enter annual recurring charges and one-time setup separately. Blank means unknown; enter 0 only when the quote confirms no charge. Totals exclude taxes and internal staff time.
03 / Run the demo
Weight what matters to your team
Weight: 0 excludes a criterion from the score; 5 gives it the most influence. Mark deal-breaking requirements separately. Ratings: 0 = unsupported, 1 = manual workaround, 2 = partial fit, 3 = demonstrated fit. Leave unverified answers unknown.
These are original buying prompts, not a certification assessment. Add your team-specific requirements to the brief and decision notes.
04 / Review the evidence
Your decision record
Scores use only rated criteria. Compare coverage alongside scores; a high score from a sparse demo does not establish a better product. Required criteria remain visible even with weight 0.

The rubric covers evidence workflows, engineering integrations, access, and portability. Ratings and quote values are supplied by your team; the directory does not assign vendor scores.

Open shared worksheets to store reviewed JSON for a named team. Saving there is explicit; local entries are not uploaded automatically. Team members can edit saved revisions, with conflict checks and history.
