B2B Data Integration and Transformation Blog

Columbus, OH (PRWEB) March 26, 2012 - RemediElectronic Commerce Group, a Business and Data Integration organization, announced today that it surpassed prior performance for the third consecutive year. Remedi provides consulting, software, training, managed services, and recruiting & placement solutions to a variety of industry leaders throughout the US and Canada. A broadened focus to include B2Bi, EDI, and EAI, ETL, MFT, Commerce, data integration & warehouse, and business intelligence technologies has contributed to the company’s steady growth. In addition, Remedi’s growth included the expansion of sales, marketing, and sourcing staff; strengthening of key partnerships, increased delivery of managed services, and ongoing integration thought leadership initiatives.

“2011 was a good year for our clients, especially over some of the challenges of previous years. With ever increasing competition, energy costs, worldwide political and economic volatility, man-made and natural supply chain interruptions, clients continued their drive towards implementing solutions that increased productivity, efficiency, visibility and value. For many, this included modern stand-alone B2B/EAI/MFT solutions which provide good vertical functionality and performance. For a great number of others, they were part of the steady migration from multiple stand-alone solutions for MFT, B2B and enterprise integration to comprehensive integration suites delivered via an on-premise, as a service, outsourcing approach, or some combination of the three. It is in these comprehensive integration suite deployments where Remedi saw much of its efforts directed throughout the year," according to President Brad Loetz. "At the end of the day which ever route clients determine is best for them, stand-alone integration solutions or comprehensive integration suites, they have to have the ability to offer cost-effective, scalable integration solutions in order to remain relevant and viable in a fiercely competitive environment. Remedi is pleased to offer our clients assistance with these challenges."

Are you trying to decide between virtual EDI software or an in-house EDI solution? One of the best things about what I do on a daily basis is that I get to talk with clients about their ideas and blueprints for their EDI/eCommerce environments in the near-term and the long-term. This is the time of the year that strategic planning is high on the priority list for companies as they review and evaluate their current situation. One of the questions I am most asked of by clients is what my thoughts are on utilizing software in an in-house installation or a virtual capacity. There are many different flavors to the in- house and virtual possibilities, but for the sake of brevity associated with a blog, let’s use these terms as general terms. In-house referring to having EDI/ eCommerce software on-site, installed within your company’s premises versus virtual referring to EDI/eCommerce software installed outside of your company’s premises or hosted by another company that offers this type of service. As companies evaluate all of the factors that go into this decision, it can lead to quite a difference in opinion within organizations. Read More
