What the client says
"From the very start we wanted to create a paperless office, get rid of binders and filing cabinets, and automate our workflow."
Gerrit Knopert, Commercial Manager, Dichtomatik
"With ELOprofessional, though, this is impossible, since the system provides our staff with an infinite electronic archive, allowing them to quickly retrieve any documents not older than five years with one mouse click."
Gerrit Knopert, Commercial Manager, Dichtomatik
"Over the past three years the number of purchase order lines has increased by 35 per cent. Since 2000 we have worked with 15 to 16 staff; yet, our turnover has increased by more than 50 per cent. These facts and figures suggest that the investment of ELOprofessional has helped create a win-win situation for us."
