Migrating Stone Edge (SEOM) to Steersman's Odoo ERP

Legion Safety is a personal protective equipment (PPE) distributor based in the greater Chicagoland area. They manage a vast and dynamic catalog of thousands of products, each with potentially dozens of different variations or features, all of which can change as new product lines are retired and introduced. As they grew and expanded their business, they found that the various enterprise resource planning (ERP) software solutions available at an attainable cost were insufficient for their needs, and they lacked the means to develop a better solution in-house.

They wanted to upgrade from using Stone Edge Order Manager (Monsoon SEOM) for their order and inventory management, along with X-Cart for their e-commerce solution, Worldship+Dazzle for parcel management, and QuickBooks for accounting. Still, all the disparate tools were leading to some logistical issues, making the ordering process and back-end management error-prone and inefficient.

Legion worked with Steersman to set up an all-in-one solution that would tie all the elements together and successfully performed an overnight switchover, using Steersman’s data migration scripts to transfer the catalog, inventory levels, customer records, and customer order history from Stone Edge to Odoo.

Stone Edge Order Manager to Steersman’s Odoo

Starting with Odoo, a powerful open-source business management software, and completely rebuilding several of its modules to optimize usability and performance, Steersman was able to provide precisely what the client was looking for. Their team was also familiar with SEOM technology, and the migration from Stone Edge to Steersman’s Odoo was done quickly and efficiently.

• Steersman’s robust shipping solution streamlined the back-end process, and by having a central data source across all modules, the client’s staff could ensure that they always had the latest product and order information at their fingertips.
• Steersman’s revamped product information management (PIM) tool is designed to be used with ease even by non-technical staff. Product data templates and a powerful graphics optimization engine allow Legion’s product managers to update and maintain their vast catalog with ease. The interface is so intuitive that it’s simple to add attribute mappings and verify the data for accuracy without involving data specialists.

Steersman’s Odoo ERP, with its streamlined e-commerce, robust shipping, and dynamic product information management solutions, sets them apart from the competition and provides just the edge Legion Safety needed to boost their sales and streamline their back-end processes. After going live, they saw an immediate increase in sales, and that trend has persisted over time. They feel confident in knowing that their investment in the new solution will grow with them over time and that the Steersman support team will be there to help them through any future challenges.
