No more eMfg!

Epicor's webpage has had "Vantage, Epicor's eManufacturing solution" listed
in the products section for some time. Maybe they just got it backwards
with 5.0 ?

Sorry if this is old news, but I don't recall hearing it here yet.

Tim Ligas from Epicor was at the Ohio Vantage User Group meeting this
Tues. He says Epicor is abandoning the "eManufacturing" name, and
effective with release 5.1, Vantage will be Just Plain Vantage again.
Yeah!!! No more cheesy generic sounding name :)

There was a time long, long, ago in a stock market far, far away that
putting .com at the end of your name made your stock go higher.

I heard him say that too. But with all the other Epicor products called
eSomethingorother what does that mean for Vantage's future? Maybe nothing,
but aren't they trying for a unifying image for all their products? Are
they changing the names of any other of their products? Just wondering.

Speculation Alert! There may have been a conflict with another company-I
was at a trade show in the spring and there was another company called
eManufacturing that has a software package for CNC machine programming. I
was a little surprised to find they weren't connected to Epicor.

Plus, every one of us continued to call it Vantage, so it's tough to fight
your customers "brand name" recognition. Think how long it took all of us
old fogies to start calling Datsun by it's actual company name, Nissan.

I think they made a good choice staying with the Vantage name. It's bad
enough they've changed company names 4 times in the last 6 years (we were
going to have T-Shirts made up that said "DCD (crossed out), Dataworks
(crossed out), Platinum (crossed out), Epicor...a name you can trust."). A
lot of people recognize the Vantage name, even if their shop doesn't use it.
I think Epicor would be making a mistake by confusing people further. I
don't think the fact that eManufacturing was "powered by Vantage" (huh?)
helped either.
