ENGLEWOOD, N.J., April 6 /PRNewswire/ -- eZCom Software, a leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider of multi-enterprise business-to-business integration (B2Bi) solutions, announced that vendors, such as Aurora World, Inc., M-Clip® and Wild Eye Designs have switched from SPS Commerce's WebForms to Lingo™, eZCom's hosted B2B application. eZCom's Lingo is helping these companies meet the EDI requirements of big chain and department stores while dramatically reducing the amount of time and money spent on order fulfillment by automating and streamlining the document management process.

Wild Eye Designs, a leading edge designer and manufacturer of tabletop, home accessories and gift items, made the switch to eZCom Lingo toward the end of 2009. Because of its business intelligence coupled with large document processing capabilities, Lingo has enabled Wild Eye Designs to do in one hour what previously took an entire day.

"eZCom Lingo's easy-to-access, web-based EDI system makes it possible for our order and logistics teams to process documents with unmatched ease of use and efficiency," said Alex Matovsky, operations manager, Wild Eye Designs. "Lingo maximizes our operational efficiencies by allowing us to filter, process, and create hundreds of cartons on an ASN with a couple of clicks and a couple of seconds. Switching to eZCom is one of the best decisions we've made."

Aurora World, Inc., the leading supplier of affordable, high quality plush toys and gifts, migrated to eZCom from SPS Commerce's WebForms during the fourth quarter of 2009. The goal was to reduce the amount of manual data entry WebForms required for conducting business with Stein Mart.

"What required eight hours to process with SPS takes only one hour in Lingo," says Jimmy Chong, logistics coordinator for Aurora World, Inc. "eZCom's Lingo automatically creates invoices from my shipments in seconds. With SPS' WebForms, we would have to go back and do a completely separate task to manually create hundreds of invoices one at a time. Getting invoices over to Stein Mart quicker and potentially more accurately means we get paid faster."

M-Clip®, maker of "The World's Finest Money Clip"®, switched their second EDI customer, Nordstrom Stores, to Lingo in January of this year. eZCom Lingo's ability to easily consolidate shipments and invoices by distribution center was the catalyst for migrating from SPS Commerce. The system's ability to speed up the time to process orders has been a significant benefit for M-Clip®.

"Overall, eZCom saves us one to two hours on every order by cutting down the amount of time the order entry clerk, the shipping clerk and accounting have to spend on it," says Chad Selmecki, IT manager for M-Clip®. "eZCom understands small and medium sized business and what we have to go through. Lingo is basic common sense as far as work flow goes."
