Considered Both Products

Chose Red Falcon
Use RedFalcon as a member of ISG have not evaluated other.
Chose Red Falcon
Integration is a great improvement.
Chose Red Falcon
We did a quick review of other companies but went with Red Falcon as we knew someone else who used and was happy with their service offerings

Red Falcon does seem to be expensive but it was a little hard to compare as we did not compare all the specific pricing for other …
Chose Red Falcon
If this is the Phoenix system I had used in the past, Red Falcon is much more up-to-date and streamlined.
Epicor iScala
Chose Epicor iScala
I have experience with multiple ERP software and I must say that iScala is the fastest system to work in so far. It doesn't have the same fancy shell like some others but at the end of the day the most important thing is the functionality and here is iScala outstanding.
Chose Epicor iScala
Our sister companies around the world are using SAP and ASW, but I can say that in our iScala using companies we are flexible, fit for any business requirements, and ERP related costs are better than in SAP and ASW countries.

We like the fact that we are able to offer our customers a professional online presence so that we can compete with the big box stores and the Amazon's of the Office Supply world. I like being able to log into the back office to see our respective pricing from both SP Richards and Essendant.
