"We're constantly improving our system and functionality to meet the changing needs of our customers. Our goal is always to develop new versions that will enhance the user experience and help perform the tasks more efficiently whether the user is a warehouse manager, accountant, sales person etc. We value our customers' feedback and it has played a pivotal part in deciding which frequently used functions in the system to develop/improve.  This intuitive new design is clear, consistent and allows for easier access to key information which will certainly increase productivity." - Mark Canes, Blue Link President
