Customer profiles
Circle customers come from a wide variety of industries with a wide variety of needs for order management. Due to Circle’s remarkable flexible and adaptable design, each customer’s system fits their specific business process.
Modern Bathroom
System Replaced: QuickBooks
Modern Bathroom, of San Fernando, CA, is an omnichannel retailer that sells both wholesale and retail, via eCommerce and in showrooms in Southern California. The company grew its business on QuickBooks, and realized that they needed to move to a full omnichannel ERP to continue supporting their growth.
They narrowed their choices down to Circle and an ERP package from Sage. Circle demonstrated the ability to hit specific targets by building items for Modern Bathroom during the sales process, and also loading a very large product file to demonstrate the remarkable speed of Circle – Sage could not match either of those, and they joined the other happy Circle customers!
World Pantry
Primary Need: ERP to support eCommerce
WorldPantry.com, whose motto is “connecting lovers of great food with the people who make it”, provides a complete end to end merchandising and fulfillment solution to food producers in many categories. The company builds eCommerce platforms for each client using internal staff, and originally built an internal order management software package to address their needs. As the company grew, and more and more varied needs were discovered with new clients, it became apparent that a highly adaptable omnichannel ERP would be needed to address the company’s wide ranging needs.
Cargo Largo
Primary Need: Unique custom system for a unique business
Circle has provided extensive Software Consulting services to the company for many years as their business has grown and changed.
Herrington Catalog
Primary Need: Catalog
System Replaced: Ecometry/Escalate Retail
Herrington Catalog, a long time gift cataloger located in Manchester, NH, was running on an early version of the Ecometry/Escalate Retail suite. In 2012, three key executives within the company purchased it from the eponymous owner, and identified upgrading their systems as a key activity. They hired a leading industry consultant, and did an RFP to replace both their eCommerce front end, as well as the aging catalog management software.
Circle Commerce responded to the RFP and partnered with WebLinc (Philadelphia, PA) as the eCommerce provider, and after in depth demonstrations of the company’s capabilities, won the business in late 2013. The system was developed with many specific requirements addressed, and 20 years of data was brought over to the new system from the aging Ecometry environment, and went live in summer of 2014.
Unfortunately, Herrington could not compete with the “Amazoning” of the web, and had to close its doors.
“Our business has unique challenges due to the nature of our business and the types of customers we support. We needed to update our internally developed legacy system, and reviewed a number of systems, but Circle was clearly superior in speed and flexibility, but yet at a lower price! We continue to build and refine the system over many years to meet our ever-changing customer requirements, and are delighted with the system and we love our CoreTeam!”Jenn King, Director of Technology
