“Collaborative Planning is key to enabling our Trust to control the preparation, monitoring and updating of forecasts… We are particularly pleased with how the solution has engaged non-finance staff in the forecasting process which is fundamental to accurate financial planning, and central to the ongoing success of our ‘Building World Class Finance Programme.”

"By knowing that we would be able to integrate the Vocollect product into our WMS system, we’ve been able to see tremendous value in our distribution centres’ picking process. Our warehouse productivity has increased 10-15% and that would not have been possible without AppIntegrate."

“Staff no longer have to worry that stock will not be re-ordered in time. They also have a greater awareness of the cost of items and the importance of accurate stock management”

"We knew that these features would increase the load on the OpenVMS Alpha systems and scalability was not going to be possible without a change of platform. Given the rich functionality of our MIDAS system, there was no viable package replacement. Migration, therefore, offered us a fast, costeffective, and low-risk solution."

"It sounds obvious, but we needed a straightforward system where the users can quickly create tasks, phone calls and flag key reminders in order to call back prospects in a timely and efficient way."

"When I received a demo of eXchequer365 I was suitably impressed. We had recently provided the sales team with iPads so this was a neat fit with our existing Advanced Exchequer solution that allowed direct access to information during client visits."

"As well as making it easy for call handlers to direct calls, Adastra enables information stored in the database to be easily shared. This saves the patient time and energy as they no longer have to repeat information, such as their symptoms and medications."

“Since switching to Advanced, we have seen improvements in compliance, efficiency and cost savings. The take-up by academic staff has been excellent, far greater than we experienced previously.”

"An important part of the managed services is to choose a quality provider. The engineers know our sites and our needs and our staff, teachers and heads know them, which is very important."

"We can now procure goods and services more efficiently than ever before and have much greater control over procurement, whilst being smarter about what we procure and from whom. This has allowed us to more tightly manage costs. At a time when public sector budgets are under increasing scrutiny, effectively managing our spend is key."

"As a charity we always need to be mindful of costs and therefore re-skilling and cross training our existing staff in the new solution is key to the continued success of the project. We see Advanced as a trusted partner providing a pivotal roll supporting us to reach this objective."

“Advanced has experience of dealing with application vendors through its 30-year history of providing integration products and services. It has enabled them to address not only our technical requirements, but also our business needs.”

"It wasn't just a case of translating each COBOL record to a database table; we had to use the existing Life System's SQL Server Schema and match the items to the COBOL definitions. The flexibility afforded by the metadata layer, and the assistance provided during our initial testing and development, was exceptional. The method of intercepting the COBOL I/O at runtime meant that we didn't have to make any changes to the COBOL sources, which was vital as we wanted a quick, easy and non-intrusive method to access the new database."

"The Advanced support team were very responsive and even when we pushed them with tight deadlines we felt they pulled out all the stops and we all worked together to resolve issues - with the best will in the world, no new software is going to be installed without a few!"

"We chose Crosscare because we were looking for a development partner and Advanced Health & Care were open to this approach."
