COM_Net2 Benefits: Fleetwood Folding Trailers

“ COM_Net2 enabled us to immediately improve customer service significantly without adding

headcount, and will allow us to eventually reduce our data entry clerical staff by 50%.”

“It was practically a “plug-and-play solution. Right out of the box we had an integrated order inquiry an

order entry system with item availability checking, substitute part number availability, and easier

comment entry than MAPICS’ COM.”

Dale Gindlesperger, Fleetwood Folding Trailers


More Praise…

“I am getting over ONE THOUSAND distributor log-ins per week. They are ordering parts and checking status. All I know is everyone is happy and my system doesn’t feel it a bit!”

“My biggest customer demanded I do eBusiness. I ordered COM_Net2 on a Monday. By that Wednesday it was

installed and operational. It is unbelievable!”
