"The Synergy team have many years’ experience in the plant hire industry, but as with any new venture, they needed a system that could support them quickly and reliably. Thinc oversaw the integration process with their industry specific software and applied best practice to deliver an end to end solution that met their very specific requirements.

SAP Business One is an incredibly flexible tool that allows us to work in a wide range or verticals and industry’s even if they have niche requirements.
