Challenges

A Priori executives liked that Acumatica Distribution offered an affordable price, based on transaction volume not per-user licenses. It also offered a lot of personalization, including custom reporting, and a lot of functionality baked into a single system. They also liked that they could start with a base platform and add interconnected modules like warehouse management over time, and add more users as they grew, without escalating licensing costs.

"We wanted an integrated system that could do everything from one place so our sales reps, fulfillment teams, and admins could see the same data in the same way."
