Founded in 1991, MicroTek is the leading single-source provider of business education facilities and delivery services. MicroTek has grown from a single training site in San Francisco to a global services company with facilities in all major U.S. cities and international cities. This has led Microtek to need scalable, integrated systems to accommodate their growth.
Challenge
"Recently, our company was trying to identify partners to help our company update critical integration routines. We had previously coded integrations from our home-grown order processing system through BizTalk and e-Connect to both Microsoft CRM and Microsoft Dynamics Great Plains 8.0. We were planning an upgrade to Great Plains 10.0, and at the same time needed to update the BizTalk integrations for e-Connect 10.0. After having worked with the routines for several years, we were of the opinion that they were poorly designed and inefficient. In addition, they did not support our current multi-company set-up. Our GP partner quoted us a price that was over twice the original design, and this was simply to update them to 10.0, with no design changes. We were stumped."
Solution
"We identified TwoConnect as a possible BizTalk partner, and were immediately impressed by their professionalism and quality of personnel. We interviewed our consultant, and were also favorably impressed by his knowledge and background in BizTalk. After having him in for a two week design session to scope the project, we decided that we could re-design all the integrations, update them to e-Connect 10.0, and create a multi-company capability under our specified budget.
Within weeks, we had integrations to test, and we were able to complete the project within the projected timeframe. We couldn’t be happier, and would highly recommend TwoConnect as a BizTalk partner."
