TIE Kinetix and To-Increase Announce Global Partnership Expansion for Fully Integrated EDI Solution for Microsoft Dynamics 365

TIE Kinetix and three-time Microsoft Dynamics Global Outstanding ISV of the Year, To-Increase, announced today that they have expanded their joint offering for a cloud-based, end-to-end EDI solution for Microsoft Dynamics 365. Under a single contract, Dynamics 365 users worldwide have the immediate opportunity to simplify EDI implementation and day-to-day operations.

The decision to expand the offering follows a highly successful partnership in the Netherlands in which the solution was first made available to local customers. Now available on a global scale, TIE Kinetix provides a prepackaged EDI solution suitable for all Dynamics 365 users by default. The solution includes access to TIE Kinetix's FLOW Partner Automation platform as well as To-Increase's EDI Studio and Connectivity Studio?all in one contract.

"EDI integration with ERP systems is often perceived as a highly technical IT project, as there are many small details and standards to comply with. But with our solution, full integration isn't complicated at all," says Jerry Caous, Technical Productivity Sales Specialist at To-Increase. "In joining forces with TIE Kinetix, we've eliminated unnecessary challenges, providing Dynamics 365 users with everything they need to exchange documents electronically directly from their ERP."

Unlike other solutions available in the market today, TIE Kinetix and To-Increase offer a true end-to-end EDI solution for Dynamics 365. That means full integration, eliminating the need for Dynamics 365 users to navigate between multiple systems. And because the solution is ready-made, the combined offering introduces a convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional, labor-intensive integration methods.

"Full integration with Dynamics 365 is very unique, especially when offered as a single contract with a clear, all-inclusive price," says Natascha Heijboer, SVP Global Sales and Partnerships at TIE Kinetix. "When users can stay within the platform and do not have to switch between systems, everything becomes more efficient."

In addition to quick implementation at an attractive price, the solution expands non-EDI-related integration capabilities. For example, the solution still works for Dynamics 365 customers and suppliers that do not have an existing EDI connection. Furthermore, users have the option to synchronize data via Master Data Management (MDM) integration, which can be done directly within the ERP or through a third-party system.

The end-to-end solution is immediately available to all TIE Kinetix and To-Increase customers.
