1. Vantage Point EDI is a solution, not a tool
Savvy companies know that building EDI integrations with translator tools such as Gentran® or Biztalk® are expensive, risk-filled propositions that have an undefined, ongoing cost to maintain and upgrade. Unlike these tools that require heavy ERP customization, Vantage Point EDI is a complete solution that delivers everything you need to transact business -- all without customizations to your ERP.
“Vantage Point EDI proved to be a tightly integrated, out-of-the-box EDI solution that did everything we needed to handle our EDI requirements with no ERP development needed.”
Bill Blythe
Old Castle Precast
2. Outsourced EDI compliance service
Data Masons can provide compliance management for as little as $120 per year for each partner, regardless of the volume of transactions or frequency of compliance changes.
“Data Masons provides compliance service for a fraction of what it would cost using internal personnel and we know exactly what it costs to add new partners and documents. They speak to the partners directly on our behalf and handle any compliance changes automatically at no additional cost.”

3. Reputation
Data Masons's EDI Made Simple® approach has made the company a leading provider of integrated EDI/XML processing solutions in North America and positioned Vantage Point EDI as the solution-of-choice for companies running on Microsoft Dynamics or Exact ERP platforms.
“We heard Data Masons was the best option from several different companies in our industry at a recent user group meeting. We decided to abandon our existing EDI solution based on the feedback we heard from other companies using the Vantage Point EDI solution. They quickly replaced our existing EDI solution and solved many challenges our prior vendor could not address.”

4. Connect and comply with any trading partner
Data Masons maintains a library for more than 1,000 trading partners with over 6,000 documents. And because Data Masons’s trading partner kits can be purchased and installed in just minutes, your company can begin transacting with business partners immediately.
“We were using three different websites to input EDI data. Data Masons handled all of our partners and eliminated all of the data entry.”
Mitch Buchwalter
Home Stuffings, Inc.
5. No document or unnecessary transaction fees
As a fully-automated EDI solution, Vantage Point EDI eliminates the costs associated with more traditional processing methods that rely on error-prone manual processes and expensive ERP customizations, all of which contribute to unpredictable transaction fees.
“When we found out we could do unlimited transaction processing with Wal-Mart and Target using Vantage Point EDI, we dropped our web forms provider (SAAS) and purchased Vantage Point EDI. Our monthly bills went from $3,800 per month to $0. The integration saves us time, money and errors – the ROI has been tremendous.”
J. Wang
Pepsi Bottling, M.V.
6. High performance with high transaction volumes
Built on Microsoft SQL Server using .NET development tools, Vantage Point EDI not only offers a risk-free and fast set-up, but it delivers scalable performance when experiencing high transaction volumes to meet enterprise-level EDI requirements.
“Our first EDI implementation failed during cycle testing due to performance and reliability issues. We determined it would take more than 24 hours to integrate orders during our busy season. Vantage Point EDI completes this process for us in less than two hours per day and it took a fraction of the effort to implement.”
Nigel Purdon
R&W Supply, Inc.
7. Tight integration without accounting system customization
Vantage Point EDI seamlessly integrates with Microsoft Dynamics and Exact ERP platforms, without any invasive ERP customizations which can contribute to unwelcomed chargebacks, unforeseen document fees and costly operational inefficiencies.
“Our company made a decision to eliminate unnecessary customizations as part of our accounting solution upgrade. Vantage Point EDI has provided greater functionality for a fraction of the cost of upgrading the EDI-related enhancements. A new partner can be set up in as little as one day which took weeks on our old solution.”
Gary Godman
ESI Enterprises, Inc.
8. Expertise in ERP applications
The Data Masons team is comprised of EDI solution experts that have extensive knowledge in working with the Microsoft Dynamics and Exact ERP platforms. As a result of the team’s combined experience and connection with the ERP communities, Data Masons has successfully implemented and supported Vantage Point EDI in over 500 organizations worldwide.
“We chose Vantage Point EDI because Data Masons understood our accounting system. Also they had great references.”
M.Henry
Virtual Iron Software, Inc.
9. Reduction in chargebacks (compliance fines)
“Our previous EDI solution allowed us to send data improperly to our partners without warning. The first thing we asked to see from Data Masons was detailed error trapping for outbound documents in Vantage Point EDI; it did exactly what we wanted and now prevents our customer service team from sending bad transactions.”
Herbert White

10. State-of-the-art technology
Vantage Point EDI is built on three key Microsoft technology components: .NET, SQL and XML. Reliance on these components enables powerful Windows-compatible functionality and performance with a low total cost of ownership.
“Our company is a Microsoft shop and we liked the SQL and .NET technology foundation. Reporting has been a dream and we love the flexibility and control SQL provides. Vantage Point EDI Scheduler provides “lights-out” automation and informative exception alerts which is exactly what we wanted.”
