Problem:

Our company’s existing ERP system was antiquated and not utilizing today’s technology without redundant processes or not capable at all.

Reasons for change:

Existing software wasn’t capable of emailing directly, website integration, or remote connectivity for higher levels of productivity.  A lot of our processes overlapped and too many of our team would have to get involved for the same functions. 

 Our previous ERP system lacked these basic functions:

  • Customer signature acquisition.
  • 360 degree views of customer buying trends / patterns.
  • Individual role based dashboards to focus on what’s important.
  • Automated emailing of quotes, invoices, statements, etc.
  • Basic CRM platform.
  • Portability to work from anywhere using traditional every day devices.
  • Real-time updating across the business.
  • Web commerce.

 SourceWare Solution:

We chose SourceWare for several reasons.  Single core item database which allows for real-time updating internally and with our web commerce engine.  Role focused dashboards where our team can see what’s most important in their function in the company.  The ability to connect easily using any common browser with traditional devices without the specialized high cost single function devices. 

Our decision to go with SourceWare was easier than others because of the support of our IT team at ESC Integrated Software Services.  Our implementation of SourceWare was aided by their decades of experience with ERP systems and took on the database conversions without any issues.  They guided our team through all of the learning curves we had with going to a new ERP system. We’ve been with ESC for the past 6 years and haven’t looked back or considered using anyone else.  Thank you to ESC for making us feel like an important part of their business!
