According to President and CEO of Shoplogix, Kevin Dwyer, "Keeping customers informed of issues and addressing them before they become problems, goes a long way to building solid and lasting relationships. Using real-time information, manufacturers have the ability to notify customers immediately when deadlines are at risk and collaborate to develop solutions that minimize any negative impact. This capability is the differentiator that gives a competitive advantage in customer service and responsiveness".
