Jelecos Selects Jitterbit as Cloud Data Integration Platform


Apr 11, 2011 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Jitterbit, a provider of application and data integration solutions, announced that Jelecos, a technology partner and a service provider for Lindsay, switched from IBM's Cast Iron Systems integration solution to Jitterbit for its ETL and data integration processes.



As a technology service provider for Lindsay, a manufacturer of agricultural irrigation and infrastructure equipment, Jelecos provides critical managed infrastructure for key systems such as: email, VoIP telephony, enterprise resource planning (ERP), middleware, and back-up and disaster recovery systems. Jelecos previously used Cast Iron for ETL processes associated with Lindsay's business analytics requirements, but reliability and support issues forced them to look elsewhere. Using Jitterbit for the first time, a single resource at Jelecos was able to completely migrate its existing integration to Jitterbit in three days. Jitterbit reliably automates daily integration routines, and is the tool of choice for upcoming integrations with Salesforce CRM, Micro Strategy BI and other internal products.

"Not only were we able to get Jitterbit up and running in a matter of days, the platform is faster, more reliable and the team offers superb product support - something our previous solution, Cast Iron, could not touch," said Leon Thomas, CEO of Jelecos. "As a result we're finding new ways to use our integration tool as opposed to working around it." Jelecos supports Lindsay's data warehousing initiatives, consolidating data from multiple international deployments of Microsoft Navision ERP. A key point of failure for its previous integration solution was its inability to extract and deliver timely and accurate data from various Navision systems for important business analytics and executive dashboards. Using Jitterbit, the team was able to build smart "cascading" extraction of data within each time zone. As a result, the executive team now receives near real-time insight into Lindsay's global activities.


Jitterbit is a developer of data and application integration software. Designed for the technical business analyst, Jitterbit allows companies of all sizes to solve the challenges of application, data, and business process integration between on-premise and cloud systems. Jitterbit's graphical "No-Coding" approach accelerates and reduces the complexities associated with the configuration and management of on-premise and cloud integration projects.
