Overview
Anchor Industries, a leader in lifting and marine equipment, upgraded to Sage 300cloud to address data corruption, reporting gaps, and outdated tools. With help from TydeCo™ and Applico, the Cape Town-based company transitioned from an underperforming system to a stable, business-wide platform.
The solution supports thousands of monthly transactions and delivers powerful controls for inventory, document access, and reporting. Sage 300cloud is now used as more than just an accounting system.
It functions as a tool to build efficient, scalable operations across the business. Management now enjoys better oversight with detailed reports, improved invoicing, and smarter stock management.
TydeCo™ tailored the system to Anchor’s operational needs, providing custom documents and automations that meet ISO-9001 standards. The result is a smarter, more reliable system that supports growth.
A business tool, not just accounting.
