If you are not considering using SaaS OMS and WMS software you should be.

Transitioning to VeraCore in the Cloud could cut your IT spend in half.

With the evolution of SaaS, offering your clients a robust, secure, and highly available environment to manage their fulfillment programs is more affordable than ever. In the early days of SaaS many companies used it more for non-core systems like a CRM. These days companies large and small manage their manufacturing, financial and ERP systems in the cloud to leverage the many benefits that come with SaaS, most notably significant cost savings.

Solving Business Problems with Ever-changing Technology

January 9, 2020January 17, 2020Jodi Dixon | Vice President

Since I started developing software back in the 80’s, there have been incredible advances in technology. It’s difficult to remember what life was like before the internet.

My grandchildren will probably never walk into a bank to cash a check on payday or pay for long distance phone calls and they will never use a map to figure out directions to a vacation destination (unless it is in history class).

Jodi Dixon | Vice President

Jodi is a life-long VeraCore employee starting as an Entry-Level Programmer fresh out of kindergarten. She moved through the ranks as Programmer, Senior Programmer and Director of Software Development before settling in as Vice President. As a graduate of the University of Connecticut, Jodi had no idea where a math major would take her in life. She quickly learned that Numerical Analysis and Advanced Logic taught her critical skills for creating efficient software products.

3PL Customer Profitability & Business Intelligence

July 1, 2019July 5, 2019Garrett Lunden | President

Business isn’t easy for a 3PL provider. Competition is high, profit margin is low and managing distribution, warehousing and fulfillment can be chaotic. 3PL’s must be smart about the type of customers they take on and how they run their overall operation since a 3PL’s customer base determines their profitability. In order to maintain a competitive edge and scale their business, 3PL providers must learn to make the most of limited resources, space, and labor.
