The digital front-end for online quotes and asset management enables you to provide your customers with immediate price quotes. It simplifies (re)ordering for customers, as they only need to indicate references, quantities, shipping address, and first or repeat order.

Choose which type of payment you would like to offer your customer, and as soon as their payment is successful, a sales order will automatically be created. Before generating the sales order, every quote gets checked to make sure no errors occur, and the order can effectively be processed.

The improved CERM CRM module is quickly accessible through your browser and contains all customer history, recent activity or pending estimates. Including a direct link to the CERM Portal and Web4Labels.

Following-up on the right lead has never been easier. You can manage your tasks and set due dates where necessary, configure multiple fully customizable sales pipelines to track prospects and keep an overview of how you and your team are performing budget-wise.

By creating a multi-site environment within a single database with centralized parameters, this extension allows to manage data for different sites belonging to your company.

Based on permission settings, users operate within the context of a single site which allows them to work on their ‘own’ site-related records (estimates, products, jobs, sales orders, etc.). Resources (like materials and tools) are tagged with an owner site but can be consumed/used at another site if needed.

A detailed analysis of your situation will clarify whether a multi-site setup can suit your needs.

The production monitor provides a wealth of visual insight into the live performance of all your machines and is accessible through your internet browser. The fully customizable dashboard, adjusted to your personal needs, never lets you down and keeps you up to date. Any time, anywhere.

A great tool to have when business is booming, but one of crucial importance when issues occur. Production Managers see how the whole production floor is performing in real-time and schedulers immediately see whether every order runs on track or not. The Production Monitor shows them exactly when and where to intervene, no matter how complex production flows can be.
