Why Ongoing WMS?: "Rains did not have a WMS and was exploring and researching the market for suitable platforms capable of meeting the specific needs and demands of Rains' processes. Ongoing WMS stood out for several reasons, including great support and transparency during the demo meetings. From an early stage, Ongoing was able to match our demands of required WMS functionalities. Besides that, the WMS has proven to offer a user-friendly frontend, proper location control and monitoring, an easy replenishment process, intuitive menus for both desktop and scanner applications, an API interface, RFID compatibility, fast integration possibilities, the potential for automation integrations, and an affordable pricing model per user, and much more.

We at Rains have gone to the next level in executing our warehouse handling, and are now able to meet the demands of the business in general but more importantly able to support the overall strategic business growth for the future."

How the product is used: "Ongoing WMS is being used to manage our warehouse activities on multiple warehouse sites, domestic and international."

The biggest advantages/benefits: "Here are some of the biggest benefits listed:
