Many of the points in today’s presentation highlighted how digital transformation is not just a single point on a timeline - it’s a journey. A journey that Acumatica knows well and has helped thousands of customers achieve.
2022 Acumatica Customer of the Year - Green Bay Packaging
Before finding Acumatica, Green Bay Packaging stated their only ERP requirements were that the solution was easy to use and easy to integrate. Acumatica fulfilled both of these needs for them.
One of the factors that lead to Green Bay Packaging being customer of the year is that Acumatica ERP allowed them to be more agile and work more efficiently across the many facets of their business.
Before leaving the stage, Green Bay Packaging emphasized the importance of working with a knowledgeable VAR. They exemplified how the expertise of their VAR not only helped them with Acumatica but also with running their business in the best way possible.
Challenging the status quo
Jon Roskill returns to the stage to talk about how Acumatica continues to be a strong ERP competitor by challenging the status quo by -
always improving
pushing and innovating
empowering with agility
