Testimonials

"RheinBrücke IT Consulting's technical expertise makes me feel invincible. CCT has a talented pool of internal IT resources but sometimes that's not enough. Working with RB has taken a lot of weight off our shoulders; both the sheer volume of what we can handle together as well as the high level of technical expertise they bring to the table have greatly advanced CCT's abilities to adapt and evolve with our expanding global market. Nithish and Rajagopol are easy to work with and always have great ideas on how to solve our technical and business process issues plus they're just nice guys."

"Congratulations to your team for successfully pulling off the “Automation of RMA” project using the “A-MAP Smart” mobile based application! The legacy system was a laborious and time-consuming activity of data entry of the hundreds of Inspection entries, from the numerous Inspection sheets generated on a daily basis from the field, matching the claims against the supplied Sales orders and line details, entering all the warranty test information including customer purchasing & return data, creating disposition against the relevant warehouses and summarizing all the data for transfer to the sales teams for actual settlement of claims vide relevant sales orders."

"Thank you for the continued good work on the ERP and Supply Chain project. Your Consulting, Technical, Functional and Project management expertise was evident and was very well appreciated by our staffs. I was also pleased with the flexible, easily approachable, transparent dealing with your team. Needless to mention I also appreciate how effectively you leverage the teaming with cross cultural teams with low cost geography for developmental resources while not compromising on the quality of deliverables to business. Keep up the good work."

"I had been using RheinBrücke team as my extended arm for sometime now and I have really come to appreciate their depth of technical and functional knowledge of the product and their commitment to our end customers needs. They react quickly to new challenges and are always there for me to rely on."

"We implemented Epicor ERP for one of our large Glass manufacturing facility in Middle East. Like any ERP implementations, even though the product was good, we faced initial hiccup and challenges during the implementation . This is where we came across the German based RheinBrücke IT consulting and took their support. They did a fantastic turnaround of the project. I enjoyed the transparent and efficient dealing with the company and came to appreciate their work. Now they have opened the Middle East operations and am positive they will do well due to their good service motto."

"We were very impressed with the way RheinBrücke carried out their work. From analysis to implementation and post-production support, their analysis was always detailed and complete. It was easily understood by users, so different system extension options could be evaluated with all relevant information."

"Our challenges made us to embark on our ERP journey and after lots of analysis, we choose Epicor ERP for RAY Group. We also faced initial hiccup and challenges during the implementations. This is where we came across the German based Rheinbrücke IT consulting and took their support. We leveraged their services for past 12 months and from this experience, I can definitely say that they did a fantastic turnaround of the project. I enjoyed the open, transparent and efficient dealing with them and came to appreciate their work. I understand that they recently started their Middle east and Africas operations, I wish them good luck and every success."

"NGC Energy’s Epicor Implementation go-live happened earlier this year and at the end of Jan, we had successfully closed our Jan 2015 books in Epicor. This is a big milestone for all of us.It has indeed been a long journey, starting from inception, system study, training, pilot & finally the 1st month-end closing.During each stage, we received full co-operation from Rheinbrücke teams. They had given us their unwavering support, with full dedication & positive attitude to make this project successful. During this entire journey, both teams faced many challenges & at times, things were difficult, but both teams continued to give their focus & commitment, which helped to overcome these obstacles."
