"In the beginning, we needed Socrate+ for controlling purposes. But at this point the organization developed and the control is at hierarchic level. Now, using Socrate+ I can see the general situation where we stand. Is an extraordinary instrument, which gives you data for analysis, for generating strategies and creating budgets". - Adrian Ioan, Executive Manager at Gabi’s & Pappa Reale
"In our mind, till we started negotiation for implementing Socrate+, there were onlz the chain store and the automated sales system for the sales agents. But due to Socrate+, other developing opportunities showed. Until now we were not interested in having working points at over 300 kilometers distance. But now the system allows us remote management, that is why we are going to open up to 10 working points all over the country: distribution warehouses for selling the end products, which are going to be integrated în the system. We will have there: sellers, sales agents, distribution cars. Without this IT system we wouldn’t dare for it. Now we now we are able to manage them". - Codruţ Brânză, CEO LeFruMarin
"With this system we have a global view over the goods, and after one year, we haven’t had any inventory problem. This is basically the system which allows us the lowest price advantage, without high operating costs, which to be included in selling price. We have also calculated that for every new store opened we only need two men, for everything regarding head quarter, warehouse, accounting, IT, etc. All other costs occurring now will remain unchanged.
Here, at the central warehouse, we are already designed to serve 50-60 stores. The volume of information will increase. But the implemented system will allow us now to not overrun the costs.
We will go further with Socrate+, which grows together with us, without problems as it was till now. When we were looking for a company to help us develop a new integrated system we wished this system suits us. This is what I appreciate the most at the people from BIT Software: we have succeeded to make Socrate+ our own system". - Daniel Gross, CFO miniMAX DISCOUNT
