Wholesale Furniture Brokers Taps Acumatica ERP for Rapid Growth

Wholesale Furniture Brokers, a 15-year-old company selling furniture to consumers and others in North America through various internet sites, was operating on QuickBooks Enterprise. The system was not connected to the company's websites, payment processor, invoicing, inventory, or shipping programs. Instead, a team of eight maintained the different programs, entering information into each one to log a sale or order transaction from initial entry through to shipping. The company also used Google Docs as its customer relationship management system. The system was highly inefficient, with employees unable to all log into QuickBooks at the same time and some processes causing the program to freeze or crash if too many employees were doing tasks simultaneously. The company's CEO, Sergei Tashlikowich, knew he couldn't grow his business on the existing technology, so he decided to look for an integrated platform that could help streamline operations.
