Case Study: a domestic manufacturer of consumer packaged goods avoids ERP pitfalls with Synergex

Domestic Manufacturer of Consumer Packaged Goods slashes ERP timeline from 3 years to 7 with Synergex

The customer, a domestic manufacturer of consumer packaged goods, faced a significant challenge after its leadership decided to replace its stable, two-decade-old Synergy DBL legacy system running on Linux with a new off-the-shelf ERP system. This decision, made to improve integration, resulted in a project that took seven years instead of three, went 500% over budget, and failed to deliver the stability or speed of the original Synergex application.

The solution, as presented by Synergex, is to avoid such costly replacements by modernizing existing robust legacy systems instead. Using their Harmony Core framework, Synergex enables companies to expose application data via RESTful APIs for integration, create modern user interfaces, and migrate to the cloud, all while preserving the system's core performance and stability. This approach allows businesses to add new capabilities without sacrificing the reliability of their proven Synergex systems.
