Before we started using TABopts, our annual numbers were just a guess. Now, with TABopts reports, we save money.
When we first contacted Ameritech, we were using a program which had many flaws and one which we had also outgrown. It no longer provided us with the tools necessary to run our company at the level needed. Ameritech came in and observed our daily production activities and ask us to determine how we wanted our business software to perform. They then used all the info gathered and provided us with exactly what was needed now and with room to grow for the future. It has made a tremendous difference in the daily functions of our business. They have always been available when we needed assistance and have even stopped by from time to time just to see if everything was working properly. Using Ameritech was a solid business decision for Direction Furniture Company and we look forward to being associated with them well into the future.
Prior to incorporating Ameritech’s TABopts program we were using Access, Excel, Word and Outlook as separate functions. With TABopts, our flow of work is more seamless. Our above and beyond approach to business created the people at Ameritech many headaches as they had to adapt the program to our way of doing things verses their standard “out of the box package.” Derek Hedrick is extremely patient and accommodating, but most of all he is fair. We are getting ready to make more changes in our forms and procedures and I am confident that Ameritech will adapt the changes to the system and make them work for us. I love being able to go to a job and find everything you need on that job in one place. In a small business you wear many hats or at least we do. TABopts helps us with the constant transitions from bids to jobs and back because we have it all in one place. No more opening five programs to get one answer for a customer. We have come to rely on TABopts.
I used to conduct frantic searches for files and paperwork every time a phone call or email came in on a job not happening that same day…well it seemed so anyways. Now I know with confidence that if we need information on any job, any time, it is there digitally, easily searchable, and available at our fingertips – we have redefined “putting something in the file”. Our project managers now have so many more tools accessible to them whether it be time, personnel, report, tools, or instrument tracking, they have it all at their disposal. Thank you Ameritech for bringing us out of the dark ages.
I am finding more and more use for TABopts every day. I am amazed at how powerful the application can be and I have no hesitation in recommending it to others that are attempting to do the right thing in regards to increase your profits.
We use an Access Database for Warranty tracking and data extraction, Ameritech Computer Consultants updated our system from Access 97 to 2013 with very quick turnaround. Ameritech on short notice was able to mirror our Warranty Database and remotely install it at another one of our offices. The install went very smooth they had great support over the phone everything went off without a glitch, we are very impressed by Ameritech and look forward to working with them in the future.
Ameritech has successfully helped us to automate and streamline our day to day operations, specifically in the area of technology upgrades. From estimating to project management, many of our procedures are now more efficient due to the changes suggested and implemented by ACC. This increased efficiency has given us the ability to be more productive, therefore positively benefiting our company.
