Yeah, and if we go with both companies A and C, we might end up exceeding our budget.

Good point. It's always better to have a little buffer room, just in case. Plus, Company C has a bit lower licensing costs in Years 1 and 2, so that could end up saving some money in the long run.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. $300,000 for Company B is pretty close to the limit. What if there are any unexpected costs or changes down the line? I think I'd feel more comfortable with Company C, even though it's a bit higher.

You're right, Company A is way over budget. But between B and C, I think B is the better option. Their total cost is $300,000, which is right around the $310,000 mark, while C is a bit higher at $320,000.

Okay, let's start with the numbers. Company A has the highest total cost at $356,000, so we can rule that out right away. That leaves us with Companies B and C.

I agree, we need to look closely at the costs for each vendor. The licensing costs and implementation costs can really add up, so we have to make sure we don't go over that $310,000 limit.

This seems like a tricky question. The key is to find the vendor or vendors that fit within the $310,000 budget for the first three years. Let's go through the numbers carefully.
