Mississauga-Based OTI Provides Rationale for PRONTO ERP Selection

Written by Tom Verzi


OTI, Optimizing Technology Inc., located in Mississauga Canada, has been developing and implementing ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems since 1984. The Canadian VARs (Value Added Reseller) customer base appreciatesrepparttar features built into their legacy systems which focused on individual manufacturing and distribution requirements. Withrepparttar 137616 advent of GUI (Graphical User Interface) it became too difficult to add some ofrepparttar 137617 new productivity features OTI and their clients wanted.

According to Dave Airey, VP of Sales and Marketing at OTI, “We started looking for a way to move our application to a GUI “look and feel,” but after two years of investigation it became obvious that it was not a practical goal. As an alternative we investigated upgrading our legacy application to a new product.”

OTI’s requirements for a new system revolved around their customers. After many years of custom changes,repparttar 137618 legacy system was geared to client requirements.

Airey noted, “OTI’s initial search took us torepparttar 137619 major ERP players, but none hadrepparttar 137620 features we required to support our loyal customers.”

Finding an ERP System with Strong Functionality:

The search for a new ERP system ended when OTI was introduced to PRONTO North America (www.PRONTOerp.com). According to Airey, “We were introduced to Pronto and were immediately impressed withrepparttar 137621 rich functionality. One important feature was that Pronto is fully integrated. We had engineered our legacy system to be fully integrated so this was of major importance.”

The Rationale for PRONTO ERP: o Fully integrated o User definable options to tunerepparttar 137622 systems functionality o A support system to back up our customers o Functionality o GUI look and feel built using a 4 GL tool o Equipment rentals and tracking o Service maintenance o Both Manufacturing and Distribution in one package o Email & Fax capability o Multiple SQL platforms including MS SQL
