Steel ERP Manufacturers &
Sellers Success Stories
I was looking for a cloud-based solution to manage inventory and production. I started testing Kladana more for fun, but digitization quickly showed us its benefits.
We realized that it was advantageous for us to produce expensive products rather than mass-produced ones. Our stores, as well as our advertising campaign, changed. Retail outlets turned into showrooms. All of this allowed us to become leaders in the premium segment. Also, Kladana stopped the theft in our company.
