S2K Enterprise Software Acknowledged as the Robust, Reliable and Affordable ERP of Choice

Ronkonkoma, N.Y. – May 26, 2011 – VAI (Vormittag Associates, Inc.), an award-winning ERP solution provider, announced that it has been certified by Technology Evaluation Centers (TEC) for its S2K for Distribution Software Solution. TEC specializes in impartial, quantifiable software selection. The company's analysts objectively review software solutions using an extensive knowledge-base of data on hundreds of vendors and solutions to provide informed counsel and recommendations to better meet their customers’ business needs. VAI S2K Enterprise Software was selected for review and certified based on its advanced functionality and features, reliability and affordability when compared with many other tier-one ERP systems.

"VAI S2K Enterprise Software is a viable choice for medium-sized businesses looking for an affordable alternative to high-end systems, as it is robust, feature-rich and significantly more cost-effective than other tier-one ERP systems," said Aleksey Osintsev, ERP analyst at TEC. "What’s more, it provides advanced capabilities and often allows faster ROI due to lower licensing costs and fees for implementation and system maintenance and support. Another attractive quality is the SaaS deployment offering, which is becoming more popular, especially with manufacturing, distribution and retail businesses."

"The S2K Enterprise offers an excellent depth of built-in reporting and inquiry capabilities that is not often found in smaller solutions,” said Philippe Reney, SCM analyst at TEC. “This can be further enhanced by an analytics module that offers a highly dynamic approach to real-time reporting. The level of intelligence and functionality that can be leveraged will help support the flexibility that small and medium-sized organizations need to tap into, in order to compete in larger markets."

"Having been a long-time developer and provider of ERP solutions, we recognize the importance and impact of a TEC certification, as well as the reputability of its selections, and are very pleased to be a part of its premier suite of preferred vendor solutions," said Dan Bivona, sales director at VAI. "We’re also excited to have more of our ERP software offerings in the review process with TEC, and look forward to continuing to deliver the best possible products and ROI to our customers."
