Challenges
The client sought to streamline their production and sales operations through automation. The company's structure includes departments for domestic sales, exports, project contracting, after-sales services, production, planning, and logistics.
Prior to the implementation of the ERP system, they found themselves in a bit of a chaos. The majority of the company's processes were either paper-based or Excel-based, making them challenging to monitor and report on, which in turn negatively affected overall productivity. Furthermore, the ability to track the performance of sales representatives was identified as a crucial element for the company's growth.
As the company expanded, it became apparent that spreadsheets being used, was falling short in efficiency, prompting them to look for a more professional solution. Upon conducting thorough research, the company identified 1C as the ideal choice for their needs. Following a comprehensive evaluation, they implemented it and successfully completed the project.

Customer success
“If I were to describe 1C:Drive in a single sentence, it would be that it presents an excellent balance between cost and the performance of the product itself. Up until now, I can sincerely say that, although we have utilized many programs aiming for ease of use, I have yet to encounter a program as intuitive and results-driven as 1C:Drive.
At the same time, we ramped up our efforts on 1C:Perform, one of the new technologies developed by 1C:Enterprise, alongside digitizing all of our client's processes. Our goal is to automate our clients' budgetary and financial workflows, and to create thorough reporting.”
