Common Questions
The things most Javelin users ask us first.
A seamless migration is critical to your business. Our expert team & 30 years of experience will ensure your core data is migrated across. No detailed routing plans are lost. Your business is covered.
Yes. Works orders, bills of materials, purchase orders, shop floor data capture, job costing, batch traceability, delivery scheduling, invoicing. It's all there. If there's a specific workflow you rely on, tell us in the consultation and we'll walk you through it.
For most single-site businesses (5 to 15 users), 6 to 12 weeks is typical from first call to going live. Larger or multi-site businesses take longer, but we'll give you a realistic timeline at the outset, not an optimistic one. We'd rather tell you 10 weeks and deliver in 10 than promise 6 and miss it.
Yes. As part of every implementation we configure all documentation layouts to encompass each individual company's requirements. As well as basic formats this can also include barcodes, company logos and all accreditation logos e.g. BSI.
Progress Plus has been here for 30 years, through recessions, a pandemic and multiple technology cycles. We have an industry leading development team who are constantly working on evolving our software and the entire operation is backed by Banyan, who run quality businesses and hold them forever. This model allows us to remain independent and focused on our customers.
Still have questions? We'd rather answer them on a call than a webpage.
