Worldwide manufacturer syncs HQ, sales force with Saratoga Wireless By Lana Gates Phoenix Contact, a worldwide leader in the manufacturing of industrial automation, interconnection and interface solutions, needed an enterprise solution to keep its sales force up to date with its headquarters without a lot of additional work. The Lotus Notes r5 shop, with U.S. headquarters in Harrisburg, Pa., had equipped its sales force with laptops where each had its own local database. But that local database had to be synchronized and replicated to a central database. That created quite a challenge for the sales force that was on the road up to five days a week. Replication and synchronization "just didn't happen during the week," notes Larry Bassett, IT director. "Information never got to the centralized data store until the weekend." Instead, the company had a great deal of inefficient communication because its systems weren't up to date. Phoenix Contact tried PDAs but found they were lacking as far as an enterprise solution was concerned. So the company set out to find an end-to-end solution that it could deploy quickly, easily integrate with its back-end systems and that didn't require a lot of support, Bassett says.
