Using Active-e now gives you the ability to build your own solutions - but why would you when our partner Vortx has the development already done. Our partners at Vortx have built a shopping cart called AIMstorefront. It's a secure, bootstrap responsive shopping cart that is deeply integrated with AIM. Complete inventory integration with AIM ensures your inventory is up-to-date at all times, regardless of where a sale takes place. It can connect with AIM to provide your customers with secure online access to their account. Customers can make payments, update a credit card and review their account history. Security, accessibility and functionality are all maintained and updated behind the scenes by Vortx. Online & integration options are ever evolving and so are the features of both AIMstorefront and AIM.
"We have received an overwhelming response from our customers since we launched online rentals in the spring of 2008. Since our launch, we have received online rentals almost everyday and nearly every hour of the day. Online rentals have eliminated the paper trail, reduced printing costs, reduced contract processing time and increased our efficiency. It's packed with features and flexibility. We are truly thrilled with being able to offer our customers this technology that puts us ahead of our competition."
“In the fall of 2005, I was introduced to Active-e. What a great program!” relates Schmitt. “We save hours of time, every week, just with entering new product updates. I began using the active-e hosted website in August of 2005, and my results have been ten-fold over our previous activity on the web. " See full article
"Robert M. Sides Family Music Centers services a large part of Pennsylvania and has been doing band instrument rentals for many years. In 2008 we went live with the Active-e C2B rental module linking our website with our AIMsi POS system. Right out of the gate it was a success and we have seen an increase in online rentals every year since. This past fall close to 20% of all our rentals were done online. C2B gives us extreme flexibility to deal with customers that cannot get to our stores but are still in need of our service. After the initial set up, maintaining the system has been a breeze. Thank you Tri-Tech for thinking of ways to make the school music dealers job a little easier."
"Ward-Brodt Music has been renting band and orchestra instruments for a long time. With the advancement of technology it is imperative that you have a reliable tool to help serve customers at their needs and expectations. Using the AIMsi C2B rental module as that tool allows us to give outstanding customer service. Now customers who live a distance from our store location can receive the same service as our walk in traffic. The rental module also automates the process for us, reducing administrative overhead which helps keep our rental rates reasonable for the customer. Thank you Tri-Tech; for staying on top of technology and allowing us to serve our online customer with ease and efficiency."
"Online access to their account with the ability to make payments online is probably the most popular part of our website for our customers. Since the beginning of the year, we have been able to process $36,000 in payments through this application. We LOVE the interface in AIMsi to handle these payments. It is so easy and takes almost no time! Customer feedback has been very positive – they love being able to make payments online. Let’s face it…. This is something that most consumers expect from a company."
"Tri-Technical System’s Active-e B2B technology enables us to greatly reduce ordering errors and supply chain delays with some of our largest suppliers. We can view real-time inventory availability from some of our vendors which helps us make smarter purchasing decisions, speeds our inventory turns and streamlines the fulfillment process for special orders especially the ones coming in from our online stores. With 1-click purchase order submission and immediate confirmation we can process more orders in less time which ultimately improves our ROI. I highly recommend this system for both retailers and suppliers who wish to improve back office operations and B2B communication."
“We converted to Tri-Tech / AIMsi in 1995, and as a result we have completely taken control of our business both operationally and financially. Their full service package which includes both a strong retail POS system as well as robust B2B & C2B online systems, has helped us profitably gain market share over the last 21 years. We work with many service providers, and the people at Tri Tech have unquestionably been committed business partners to us during this time”
"AIMsi has really allowed us to keep better track of our print music inventory, and has really helped our employees in searching for titles and ordering music. We love that we can email purchase orders directly to the publishers with just the click of a button! The active-e feature is great as we can import new titles directly from publishers and have them active on our website. Active-e has also greatly improved our keeping up on price changes and making sure we don't have old prices in our system!"
