🇸🇪 Ottosson Färgmakeri: "It took one week from decision to full operation."

Ottosson Färgmakeri uses Ongoing WMS.

Company: Ottosson Färgmakeri, Sweden

Business: Distribution and manufacturing of linseed oil paint

Why Ongoing WMS?: "We needed multiple integrations, including with our ERP system, transport management system, and two webshops via WooCommerce. Most WMS solutions we looked at had difficulty providing this off the shelf. Ongoing already had ready-made integrations for all the systems we used, allowing us to get started within just a week."

How Ongoing WMS is used: "Ongoing is the heart of our operations. All orders are fed into Ongoing WMS, both from our webshops and those created manually in Fortnox. We also manage purchase orders and production planning for our factory within the system. All inventory, statistics, and follow-up are handled in Ongoing WMS. We have integrations with Fortnox, WooCommerce, nShift, and Zettle."

The biggest advantages/benefits: "It’s incredibly quick to get started – for us, it took one week from the decision to full operation. All the integrations we needed were ready to be picked off the shelf. The fact that the system is pleasant, fast, and easy to understand also means that even users who aren’t familiar with computers or systems like WMS can quickly get the hang of it."

Collaboration with Ongoing: "Very good. Martin Hernqvist is a hero who is always there to help. Things get resolved quickly, often with just a phone call or a quick email."

Onboarding process: "As mentioned above, very smooth and fast."
