L&G Tools’ existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, Comet Top, a system which ran on a proprietary version of Unix. It had become outdated and was no longer meeting the company’s requirements.
As a medium-sized corporation, L&G Tools needed an efficient, fully-integrated solution to manage its business. After a thorough selection process, L&G Tools selected Syspro for its ability to meet the company’s requirements as well as ensure a smooth migration path from its existing ERP system
