"Verticent's software, in comparison to others we looked at, had a nice balance of the main modules we were looking to implement — SFA, distribution and manufacturing."

“Verticent creates an environment where a customer can place orders online, check their order status, check invoice status, track their shipments, and more. With the eSeries and Verticent ERP, we have created a 24 x 7 self-service customer Web site and order entry tool.”

Verticent has proven experience in designing and deploying high-powered enterprise solutions for the Configure to Order ( CTO ) environment. Our customers are the proof! The Verticent product configurator can be deployed internally for your customer service department or externally on the web. Both utilize the same configurator engine to insure proper configurations of products or processes.

With our Web-based configurator, you can empower your customers with self-service quotation and order processing while maintaining proper configuration and pricing. Verticent turns your corporate Web site into a powerful configuration tool that enables users to easily create and test various production configurations online. And built-in formula logic simplifies the configuration and ordering process for everyone: customers, partners, sales people, etc.

When your company offers products in different dimensions–length, width, thickness, etc.–Verticent's formula engine ensures the validity of the configured items. Internally, Verticent delivers convenient cost-plus pricing capabilities that allow you to associate profit margins with materials, labor and/or overhead for configured items.

The web is critical for today's supplier. With Verticent's eSeries you provide self-service applications for business-to-business (B2B) or business-to-consumer (B2C) sales management. All integrated to the ERP MRP system in real-time from one provider, Verticent. These applications are quick to deploy and can take advantage of the look and feel of your website while securing data and access down to the user level. Users (customers, manufacturer representatives, distributors, or employees) will have the benefit of 24X7 access to their order information. Users can enter configured quotes or configured orders with the built-in web based configure-to-order module.

Verticent's enterprise business system is unique to the CTO industry in that it provides truly robust front-office (CRM) and back-office (ERP) solutions.

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Sales Force Automation (SFA) counts, too! And Verticent provides a comprehensive CRM and ERP system. Integrated with our ERP applications, Verticent CRM helps boost sales and improve customer satisfaction by providing enterprise-wide systems for lead capture, lead management, opportunity management, time management, marketing automation, pre-sale and after-sale customer support and more.

Integrated financial applications such as general ledger, financial report management, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are provided as well from Verticent. Support for multi-entity, multi-location, multi-currency, etc. are built right in to complete the operational execution in your organization.

Many organizations have benefited from business intelligence reporting solutions to help them with deployment of metrics to monitor their business and properly execute in their supply chain. Verticent's business intelligence solution turns data into decision support information to enable change and improvement. Digital dashboards and key performance indicators can be deployed.
