Perfect is the enemy of good, and nowhere is this more true than in IT improvements. I have seen businesses paralysed by the search for the ideal solution. Months of evaluation. Endless comparison spreadsheets. Meanwhile, their current systems continue to limp along.
Make progress. A 70 percent solution implemented today beats a 95 percent solution implemented never. You can always improve later. You cannot get back the productivity lost while waiting for perfection. Done is better than perfect. Start somewhere. Iterate from there.
