The CGS solution helped us overcome the fact that we did not have streamlined processes

June 24th, 2017 • Roles: Purchaser & End User

The CGS solution helped us overcome the fact that we did not have streamlined processes in place. We did not have one location to go to for our data. One of the biggest things that was a big challenge in the business was visibility to our width for production standpoint. Once we went live with BlueCherry, and were putting in all production and reporting, we were able to get our reports out of the system with no problem. It helped with efficiency–we did not spend time pulling data from various places.

We are also using the cloud solution for the systems we bought from CGS so that is one less thing to worry about.

We went with the CGS solution because it was a one-stop shop for us. We did not have to go to many vendors to get the necessary products we needed. From PLM to Solomon to ERP, everything was right there.

One word to describe CGS to us would be “partner”.
