I first met Jorg and Kathy during evaluation of Compiere as an ERP platform that could be extended to meet our vertical industry needs. Our selection of Compiere was driven primarily by our confidence in their personal ability to translate complex business requirements into an enterprise-ready solution.
Jorg and Kathy are a dynamic duo – my top recommendation for hands-on consultants who've built and understand the foundations of a high-volume, transactional-driven business application.”
