CLIENT COMMENTS
“I have known and partnered with the staff of AdvantageCS since 2015, when we began laying the groundwork that led to the 2017 launch of a new business operating software system and deployment of their Cider web platform for eCommerce. They are people of integrity and deliver what they say they will deliver, and do it at--and at times, under—budget. They invested significantly in an ONIX integration project that has enabled us to have gold star data feeds to major accounts, and the strong subscription management capabilities of Advantage have enabled us to significantly grow our direct-to-consumer sales.”
Jeff Crosby
President & CEO
ECPA
(To the team upon going live on the final wave of their multi-phase migration to Advantage) “It was a wonderful launch. I would like to express our gratitude to you for the fantastic (double) launch of Advantage and the data warehouse at Mediahuis Nederland. Projects of this size and complexity are rare. But it was a great ride. Your commitment serves as an example to others. People often worked late into the night. There were teams in Portugal, America, Belgium and the Netherlands. Many bumps, and sometimes mountains, had to be overcome, and all this at a distance due to COVID-19 measures. But you all succeeded. From now on it all really starts with Advantage!”
Xavier van Leeuwe
CEO of Digital Marketplaces
Mediahuis Nederland
I have worked with other vendors implementing systems who didn't seem to care about the job or the quality of their work. I have learned that the most important thing about any vendor is their people. In my 17+ years of using Advantage and working with AdvantageCS, I am still impressed with the dedication and integrity of the people there. The quality of their work is important to them and I can trust them to work with me until I am fully satisfied.
Mark Fung-a-fat
Former Director of Business Systems
Massachusetts Medical Society
"Your staff are people who act with integrity. From veteran employees to the more recent hires, I’m very pleased with AdvantageCS as an organization.”
Tricia Koning
Former Director of Information Technology
InterVarsity Press
“We are extremely pleased to now have Advantage running in three countries---Denmark, Sweden and Finland. Having Advantage as the single subscription system provides the efficiencies, cost reductions, and superior capabilities we need to move forward. The people at AdvantageCS are real professionals.”
Svend Erik Hansen
Former IT Director, Business Solutions
Aller Media
My favorite thing is AdvantageCS as a company; there are so many dedicated people.
Klas Persson
Former Head of Marketing Systems, Business Technology
Egmont
I like how information stays if I have to move from subscriptions, for example, to something else---it's great not to have to look up the customer information again. And I like the flow of the tables; they flow from one to the next very well.
Denise Spickler
Senior Customer Service Rep
Wolters Kluwer Health
“With Advantage, ACS offers a customer relationship management solution that excels in managing subscriptions, mail order, and digital access. From my perspective, it has no equivalent in France and Europe. Another plus is the active user group of 50+ global clients who add enhancements to the software and with whom we can network.”
Emmanuel Chevalier
Director, Customer Relationship Information Systems
Bayard
My favorite thing is the support of BPA audit requirements. I don't have to worry about it; it's always there and it works.
Randy Yi
Business Manager
American Association for the Advancement of Science
"The system works smoothly and in accordance with our expectations."
Carsten Weber
CEO
Expressen Lifestyle
"We have a fabulous relationship with ACS. They give us a chance to contribute and shape the product, which is unique in the vendor world."
Suzanne Earley
Managing Director, Back Office Solutions
The Agora Companies
I love all the different ways I can do promotions. Advantage offers so many possibilities!
Kirsten Wandall Ohlsen
Marketing Automation Manager
Aller Leisure A/S
"Bayard has found with AdvantageCS a reliable long-term partner---something that was considered risky by many other French publishers when it was selected 15+ years ago, being the first in the French and continental market."
Hubert Chicou
Chairman of the Supervisory Board
Bayard
I have so many favorite things but I guess the top one would have to be the AdvantageCS staff. I've been working with them for quite a few years and everyone has always been friendly and helpful.
Joe Wixted
Director | Fulfillment Systems
American Medical Association
My favorite thing is the reporting. I like the flexibility and the fact that I can modify my own stuff.
Paul Aviles
Operations Director
Mary Ann Liebert
My favorite thing is the help section---it's great! And also, the tremendous flexibility of the system.
Terri Cannon
Client Services Manager
Informa
Advantage supports large parts of our business and we can almost always find a way to use it to do what we want to do. Through our user experience, and in talking to other Advantage clients, I am amazed by the multitude of ways that different people use different system modules and components.
Dominic Toasland
Subscription Management Platform Architect
CDS Global
“Our business is built on Advantage---it is the heart of all our transactions. I have always had great experiences with ACS staff, and Advantage continues to get better and better.” (Comment explaining his reasons for giving ACS staff and services an “Excellent" rating.)
Getty Sarno
Chief Enterprise Architect
The Agora Companies
We are working together as an organization to better the product of Advantage so we can effectively be better together in the marketplace. A stronger Advantage is a stronger us as we go forward.
