Connecting Software (CS): Patrick, could you please tell us something about yourself and your role within the company.

Patrick Hijs (PH): I’ve been involved in a wide variety of roles within the Microsoft Dynamics NAV environment for the BMW Group Belux/AG between 2001 and 2008. Three years ago, I started at Dime as a Business Development manager and thus I am responsible for the growth of our partner network.

Moreover, Dime.Scheduler can be integrated with any ERP, CRM or LOB application that supports web services.

CS: Could you highlight a recent project of your company?

We have several projects running via our partner network in various industries (Field Service and Rental, Construction, Hospitality, Education, Gas & Oil, Transport, Rental of machinery, Automotive, Project planning, Contracting, House Building, On-shore Off Shore, IT, etc.)

CS: Why did you contact us? What was the main reason?

As we got a closer look into your product we noticed that it had all the required functionality we were looking for and we could easily integrate it with our solution.

CS: Why was Connecting Software attractive or appealing for your company?

PH: The ease of integration with Dime.Scheduler and the fact that all versions and platforms of Exchange Server are supported, including future versions.

The answer is the most pleasing for Connecting Software as we strive to be a stable and flexible partner all the time.
