Our Subscribers Say...
I think Credit Today is fantastic. You cover many practical topics in the credit field that I use regularly. Just one recent example—a conversation on the ListServ about preferential payments—gave me tips that I used in an actual case. The specific information I picked up from this one discussion saved me $10,000, enough to cover my membership for many years!
- Steve Savino
Manager of Credit & Collections, ASSA Abloy Americas Division, New Haven, CT
Credit Today's Resource Directory and their online e-mail forum (ListServ) provide information on almost any credit-related topic you can think of. It is a great way to exchange information with other credit professionals. As the saying goes, "You don't know what you don't know."
- Scott Goen,
Credit Manager, Big Lots Stores, Inc., Wholesale Division
"We've recently started using the ListServ tool within Credit Today. This is phenomenal and powerful forum for gaining immediate feedback, ideas, and suggestions, relative to any credit topic under the sun, all in a real-time e-mail format."
-Javier Vela, Senior Credit Manager, Global Credit Services, JDA Software Group Inc.
"Being a part of the Credit Today online community is like having the expertise of hundreds of credit managers at your fingertips. These credit execs are willing to help you solve topical business issues as they arise. In the current environment of ever increasing competing priorities which reduce our opportunities to meet peers out of the office face-to-face, this is the most valuable tool you can have on your desktop! It's important that we have a mechanism to reach out to our counterparts quickly to exchange knowledge as well as to stay on top of industry trends."
- Victoria Artis, Director of Customer Financial Services, Pfizer, Inc.
"Over the last 10 years I've seen Credit Today evolve from a monthly credit publication into a quality source of information and guidance for the B2B credit community. The website, with its user friendly form downloads, will take you from examples of new account credit applications to bankruptcy forms and everything in between.
The Credit Today ListServ has become the pre-imminent online forum, providing an opportunity for discussion and comments (and occasional humor) from an impressive list of credit professionals."
David Dungan, Director of Credit
Justin Brands, Inc. (A Berkshire Hathaway company)
Fort Worth, Texas
"There are numerous credit periodicals available to the credit professional today. How good is Credit Today? Is it relevant? I always have to read it late, or online because my credit analysts want to read it the minute it comes in. When my staff wants to read a publication before I have a chance to read it then something is working in that publication. We have cancelled our other subscriptions. When you have the best you do not need the rest."
Ron Woods
Corporate Credit Manager-World Wide
Thales Navigation, Inc.
"The newsletter, coupled with the website and the ListServ, are to us, more valuable than any other credit publication, bar none. I try to use at least one article out of each newsletter for departmental training/discussion sessions."
D. Mark Constantine
Corporate Credit Mgr
Fulton Paper Company
"I love Credit Today and read every issue cover to cover. For me, the greatest perk of a subscription is ListServ. I believe Credit Today's ListServ members may be the most knowledgeable Credit brain trust in existence today. I have saved and categorized hundreds of contributions on a wide variety of topics which I refer to often. It's an easy and cost effective way to network and learn."

Press Release: Ontario Systems Announces New Technology Adoption Program to Test Software Products
December 8, 2009
Program allows potential customers to test software, receive support and provide feedback on pre-release products Muncie, Indiana -- December 8, 2009 -- Ontario Systems, a leading provider of revenue cycle management and collection management solutions for the accounts receivables management and health care industries, announces the new Technology Adoption Program (TAP), a software development program designed to give select current and potential customers early access to new technology before product ship dates. More importantly, the TAP enables Ontario to validate assumptions, visions and feature design decisions, ultimately benefiting customers with current and future product versions. Unlike software Beta programs that can be more broad and shallow with their focus, Ontario's Technology Adoption Program seeks a deep client relationship in order to deliver the best products to market - based on what the market needs today and in the future - not what it once wanted when a product was envisioned. TAP clients are hand-selected by Ontario based on thought leadership and the ability to give rich feedback. The program enables companies to get involved at much earlier stages, working directly with the people designing and building the product, to see individual features as they are developed and tested. Feedback is shared with the entire Ontario team throughout the program as it serves as an important driver of product requirements. "Our TAP attracts thought leaders from companies of all sizes and from many different market segments to ensure that the solution will serve our entire industry," said Michael Zammuto, Chief Operating Officer, Ontario Systems. "With our highly dynamic markets and customers, we want to make certain that we are bringing the best possible product with features needed today and in the future when it begins shipping to customers. It is a great commitment for our TAP clients, but ultimately serves as an investment in their own business leadership." "We were extremely pleased to be selected for the Ontario's TAP and have seen tremendous benefits in the few months we have been working with Ontario's upcoming Collect Savvy product, "said Nate Olson, Vice President of Operations, Illinois Collection Service."It not only gives us hands-on experience with the product before it hits the market, but it opens up the communication channels to actually give input on issues we have or see in the market, resulting in a better product for us in the end." Availability
The Technology Adoption Program (TAP) is currently available to select clients based on thought leadership and the ability to give rich feedback. TAP is currently for Collect Savvy, but will be rolled out to all future major software projects.
