DUBLIN, Calif. – Epicor Software Corp. has enhanced its Epicor Vision business management software with several new features, including the ability for automotive aftermarket distributors to host independent locations that want to use the software within their own businesses.
The Epicor Vision software is a flexible and scalable Microsoft Windows-based solution for distributors that want to control costs through efficient inventory management and differentiate their businesses by delivering a superior customer experience, the company says. According to Epicor, the system features world-class customer relationship management (CRM) tools, a centralized database, integrated accounting and other features that help drive sales and operational efficiency.
The latest version of the Epicor Vision software includes a comprehensive hosting capability that enables distributors to offer use of their software to independent customers. This important new feature allows the distributor to help support the growth and increased efficiency of the independent stores and facilitates electronic orders. All accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, customer files and other proprietary information is protected for each business using the Vision software.
“This capability is a powerful differentiator for distributors that want to increase customer loyalty by providing the tools their independents need to run more efficient and profitable businesses,” said Craig McCollum, executive vice president and general manager, retail distribution solutions for Epicor.
