Testimonials

"X-Check was easy to integrate into our ERP and E-commerce platforms. DATAgility is responsive, helpful, and accommodating. Overall, the whole process has been simple."

-Jared Coleson, Software Developer – Elliott Electric Supply

"Having cross-references available through our ERP & E-commerce systems gives our sales team a distinct advantage when it comes to supplying the right products to our customers. I can't see why any distributor would not want to arm their sales force with the X-Check tool."

"X-Check is a great resource for out-of-stock items. It redirects the user to a screen that lists all the available substitute products. They don't even have to think about it. No more digging through catalogs or going out to search for the products on the internet."
