Some quotes from Joskin users

“For the customer service department, every agricultural machine is unique. When answering to customer requests, it is of utmost importance we have an exact view on the individual machine of the farmer’s equipment and BOM. Thanks to HANA we can now visualize the customer’s install-base in a second, and respond to the customer while he is on the phone. We can immediately modify the install-base of the customer-equipment if modifications or repairs were done after delivery. Thanks to HANA customer service will improve dramatically” … “With the immediate result of IB52 we can now answer much easier to customer demands and immediately change the install-base-record in case of repair after delivery” “In the accounting department, certain financial reports took over 10 minutes, and often aborted due to a time-out. Before migration to HANA, the accounting staff had to re-launch the same finance reports up to 5 or 6 times (taking up to1 hour to see any result). Thanks to HANA we now have our ad-hoc financial information in less than a few seconds. Thanks to HANA closing the financial period will go a lot smoother” “In the IT-department, backups now only take 40 minutes instead of 5 hours. The data size is 6x smaller, so also a gain in time during the transfer of the tapes. Batch jobs execution times during the night and week-ends have dramatically decreased. Thanks to HANA we can now easily finish the IT-maintenance in the beginning of the evening.”
