We’ve touched a broad range of industries, including banking, retail, consumer electronics, apparel, restaurant and others.

GROWING THE BUSINESS

MLE Inc. have been using BusinessMan since 2015 and it has seen the company grow substantially since then.

FUTURE OF THE ENTERPRISE

 As technology advanced, Computech designed and built a new system to replace their legacy BusinessMan system.

This was evaluated by MLE and it was decided to upgrade to the new platform. 

 “We have completed our internal review of our go forward path for MLE’s ERP solution.  We have decided that the best solution for MLE will be BMEW.  We were impressed by not only the platform of MariaDB, but also the interface, usability, flexibility, and simplicity of BMEW over Netsuite.  We felt that BMEW was not only a better value, but an overall better product for us in direct comparison to Netsuite.  

We also took into account our relationship over the last 5 years.  Internally, we feel that Computech has always acted in MLE’s best interest and that the entire organization has put forward maximum effort since day one.  We feel that all the people at Computech have similar values to us here at MLE: work hard and get the job done.  We look forward to taking our internal systems and processes to the next level.”
