“Prophet 21 wasn't one that came up on the radar when we looked for a new ERP system,” said Matt Kooken, chief financial officer for Links Unlimited. “One of the businesses nearby was using it and insisted we come check it out. We went over, and in less than half an hour, our team looked around at each other and said, 'this is absolutely what we need.'
“We feel good about the choice we made. I am confident that we made the right decision and that the BisTrack technology will support our needs well into the future.”
“Epicor Informance has given us a clear perspective on where the opportunities are for improvement and a way of prioritizing them.”
“Plus, it’s so much easier to use than the old system. All of the information is right there and every screen looks similar. It only takes one or two mouse clicks to find what you need. What used to take hours is now done in minutes, from order entries and pricing updates, to helping our inside and outside sales teams better communicate and coordinate on purchases based on the availability of specific items.”
“I was able to apply the skills that I had learned during the live training to my daily job in just two weeks. This meant that it was easy to start creating new training materials and also easy to train others to use the EKM.”
“The wide adoption not only helps the businesses to work toward common goals, but also creates an environment for collaboration and sharing of best practices.”
“Epicor XL Connect is easy to install, and since Excel is already used by everyone in the organization, it doesn’t require a lot of IT support. With embedded Excel functions, Epicor XL Connect is highly intuitive to users to get in there and begin writing reports. Immediate comfort using the solution helped to facilitate greater adoption and opened up the ability for more users in the finance department to utilize the solution, which is something we didn’t have with our previous solution. We could immediately see the long-term benefits of using Epicor XL Connect.”

“The system has given us a very accurate and uniform platform for making sure our inventories are up-to-date, and ensuring each and every customer receives the best possible price based on their longterm history of purchases and contracts. Furthermore, most of our customers will not accept delays. As a result of the many bene. ts provided by Prophet 21, we stay constantly on top of customers’ product request cycles.”
“A lot of systems can show you a bunch of data, which can lead to ‘analysis paralysis’ because it all quickly piles up. What we want to achieve with Informance is the ability to tie the data to a corrective action that actually fixes the problem, not just analyze it.”
“Six S Partners was great at helping us understand the software and the best practices to meet our needs without limiting the flexibility for the future. The quick start program and knowledgeable consultants from Six S Partners guided our project to get us up and running effectively.”
“In addition, the time savings are immense. We can readily access client histories, check on the status of each individual transaction, and then review and apply payments according to customer instructions. Plus, credit card receipts and hard copies of orders can even be scanned into customer files, which is something else we simply couldn’t do before.”
