Bethesda, MD - Euclid Technology, one of the nation’s leading providers of association management software (AMS), announced today that the Soap and Detergent Association (SDA) has chosen Euclid’s innovative software, ClearVantage 7, as its new AMS solution.
The Soap and Detergent Association is the home of the U.S. Cleaning Products IndustrySM, representing manufacturers of household, industrial, and institutional cleaning products, their ingredients and finished packaging; oleochemical producers; and chemical distributors to the cleaning product industry.
Faced with the challenge of managing their member information on various disparate systems, SDA recognized the need for a single, integrated solution that would streamline its organization’s operations. “It was very important that the system we chose not only gave us a centralized database for quick and easy access to member records, but also provided us with the latest, most up-to-date technology available for a system of its kind,” explains SDA’s Manager of Information Technology, Eli Stephanou. “We cater to a number of high profile companies within our industry. In order to serve them best, it was imperative that we went with a system that was both easy-to-use and technologically advanced. After an exhaustive selection process, Euclid’s ClearVantage met all of our expectations and more.”
ClearVantage’s innovative backend and clean, intuitive interface were not the only factors that went into SDA’s decision process. “We were especially impressed with the software’s ability to integrate directly with our website, our email accounts, and our accounting systems,” notes Stephanou. “In addition, with the software’s PDA integration and mobile functionality, staff members will have the ability to access member information ‘on-the-go,’ literally putting information at their fingertips.”
“We are delighted that the Soap and Detergent Association selected Euclid’s ClearVantage. As Euclid enters its 12th year in business, it is exciting for me personally and for our team to work with clients like SDA, staffed as it is with people dedicated to providing the best service to their membership,” says Charlie Vinal, Euclid’s President and CEO. “We work with clients who, like us, are committed to their success, and when you combine that commitment with great software, you have a solution that works over the long term, even as needs and objectives change,” concludes Vinal.
