“Because the orders flow right into Sage 100 without any hands touching it, there is nothing to get lost. When I was assigned EDI management responsibilities, I thought the EDI Advantage modules were part of Sage 100. These modules don’t look or feel like third party products – the EDI products look exactly like Sage 100!“
“Many times with the other EDI solutions, their capacity is very limited. Kissinger’s EDI Advantage not only has the capacity our customers need, but the ease of use which is so important as well. We don’t want to spend months doing complex programming when our customers need fast, efficient, and effective solutions. Plus, the level of support that Kissinger provides is absolutely the best in the industry.”
“The other guys did demos for us, but we just thought the process with EDI Advantage was simpler, and it really has been great. It just works the way it’s supposed to work. We needed it to be an easy process for our customer service person to use, and we wanted a smooth integration into sales order. Those were the two keys and EDI Advantage delivers on both. And working with Kissinger is great – they go above and beyond, and they’re always there to help us out when we need something. We definitely made the right choice.”
“The process began to make sense when I started to talk to Kissinger. What I learned was…there are three ways to transmit this information. Not paying transaction fees by using, instead of a VAN, using an AS2 connection or using FTP seemed to be the best bet, which is what marries well with Sage 100. This is a product Kissinger has been involved in for many years. We were impressed with that.“
“With 30% of our orders coming through GHX, being able to fully automate all of these orders has had an incredible impact. We went from an extensive manual process to now having a fully touchless process. This has saved us at least 40 hours of work a week, freeing up our team to focus on other revenue-generating tasks.”
“I used to have to input everything manually. It’s a huge time-saver and our customers are more satisfied. Everyone at Kissinger is easy to work with. They understood our needs and created an integrated solution that gives us exactly what we wanted”.
EDI Advantage works with virtually any trading partner that uses EDI. This list shows many of the partners customers use today, not every one. Kissinger sets up new partners regularly.
Kissinger builds a Trading Partner Compliance Pack for the partner, configured to how that partner applies its guidelines to your business, then manages testing with the partner until you're approved for production.
Testing with each trading partner takes about 30 days on average. Some partners finish in two weeks, and slower ones can take longer, depending mostly on how quickly the partner responds to test documents.
