Local Automation connects to your office server(s) via a secure, read-only connection in your firewall.   You continue to use your existing CRM and accounting packages (e.g. ACT, Outlook, Goldmine, Solomon) - absolutely nothing changes on your end.   Our software takes all of your important business data and presents it to your staff in concise, beautifully designed webpages.   You can view your orders, quotes, e-mails, and more - right from your web browser!

Your Distributors' Websites

Thanks to a partnership with PerfectDistribution.com, LocalAutomation.com allows you to automatically post your product announcements, press releases, and upcoming events directly to your distributors' websites.   Yes - we can really do that!   In addition, your distributors can use their own version of the Quote Generator in order to issue quotes of your products with accurate prices and lead times!   

The power of this feature can not be emphasized enough.   Whenever you upload a new product... or issue a new press release... or update your online prices / lead times... that information gets instantly updated on your distributors' websites via the Perfect Distribution network.
