Who use SFA HERMES
Marius Meleşteu, General Manager, Strauss Romania
“No performance can be obtained nowadays without any management and control. Hermes is an application dedicated to the sales force lined up to Strauss Romania’s needs, an application that has become the most important work tool of our representatives, for both the traditional market and the modern trade. In Strauss Romania’s vision, providing the sales force with state of the art systems, simple and really useful, is a priority and one of the methods of motivating, controlling and increasing performance”.
Dl. Eugen Ghinea, Trade Marketing & Sales Support Manager, Strauss Romania
”We chose the Transart solution mainly because of the high coverage of our needs and requirements. Practically HERMES was the only application which satisfied all our requirements. What also mattered were the many references and HERMES implementations to multinational companies as well as the Transart flexibility to deliver the HERMES applications as a service (SaaS) – at a reasonable monthly cost, financially deductible.”
Robert Popescu, CEO A&D Pharma
„By implementing HERMES SFA mobile solution, the main benefit consists of improving the services provided to our clients in the distribution area. Another significant advantage brought about by the implementation of HERMES mobile solution is an increased capacity of coordination and control of very large teams – hundreds of people. It is about sales representatives, medical representatives carrying out promotion activities and who spend more than 80% of their time at client’s place.”
Horaţiu Dumitrescu, Program Manager, Mediplus Exim SRL, part of A&D Pharma Holdings
„Hermes implementation allows us to render more efficient the activity of sales force by removing downtimes of the sales process, reducing most of administrative tasks of the agents and also through an increased support in setting up and managing all sale-related issues. The continuous flow of information from the field to the management is, however, the greatest benefit of this application.”
Johan De Smet-Van Damme, Commercial Director SKOL Africa at UNIBRA
“I recommend Transart and HERMES solution, mainly because of the following reasons: Transart was my trustworthy partner in 3 different companies, Transart was able to customize HERMES every time considering our needs, everything at reasonable costs and permanently providing customer support adapted to our needs. I am glad to notice that the first benefits start to be seen also in Rwanda.”
“We chose the solution provided by Transart because I used HERMES and I knew the Transart team because of the time spent in Bulgaria at two local brewers (Kamenitza and Ledenika). I knew HERMES is a SFA system that can be adapted to the particular conditions of the international beer market and I trusted that Transart team will implement this system in Africa.”
Gina Ciubotăraşu, Business Developer Manager, MARS Romania
“We chose Transart after a detailed analysis of alternatives. Criteria that mattered were the accumulated experience in projects with important players in FMCG, the fact that Transart was able to provide the exact solution requested by Mars and that we received positive references from other Transart’s clients. Other strengths of Transart were: competitive price, willingness and ability to perform a pilot project in an extremely short time and – not least – the availability, quality and courtesy of Transart people.”
Dl. Valentin DICHIU, Field Key Account Manager, MARS Romania
„As a result of Hermes implementation the accuracy and complexity of the collected data – from field/points of sales – has been significantly improved. Also, the auxiliary times for manual data entry and consolidation in Excel were removed.”
Rares Popescu, Director, Department of Strategic Planning & IT, Scandia Food
„We have chosen Transart as a partner thanks to its experience and expertise in FMCG field, with numerous successful implementations. The relationship with Transart has proven to be very good and flexible, Transart employees being extremely considerate, responding very quickly to our requests.”
“After implementing HERMES we have obtained objective market data related to every POP-related marketing 4P in terms of county, area and country total, data accessible to every relevant function by a single click. This information, taken over and centralised countrywide in real time allows us to make much faster decisions.”
Carmen Trif, Deputy General Manager Elit Cugir
“The most important gain is production’s efficiency in real time according to the received orders during the day through speed of information’s transmission in the field. Some products have a very short production cycle and is important to know exactly the assortments and quantities we need to produce every day according to market’s real necessities. Before HERMES implementation, when we didn’t have in real time the consolidate information about registered orders in the field, it often happened to produce less amount of a product which would have sold better.”
Branko Vujakovic, AS & BS Central Europe Manager, InBev
“Hermes is regarded in InBev, globally, as a highly successful project made by an Eastern European affiliate Zagrebacka Pivovara with an Eastern European provider – Transart”
Martin Procházka, Molson Coors CZ & SK
“I would like to thank Transart for a successful implementation of Hermes in Slovakia and to Transart’s team for maximum contribution to make this happen quickly and smoothly. Slovakian users were excited and happy with professionalism of your team. Me and my team are looking forward for further cooperation at this project.”
