OHM celebrates with recognition to users at the May 2008 OHM User Group Meeting. A true testimonial to a software package and company that is standing the test of time. At this meeting over 65% of those in attendance where honored with special made awards noting “over a decade of success together”. This group had between 10 to 14 years of being on the OHM application. Followed by 15% of the attendance having 15 plus years and the main honoree in attendance was that of 25 years with OHM.  All those honored started with an OHM telnet product and today use the state of the art web-centric ERP/MRP application for their industry.

The meeting took place in French Lick Indiana at a wonderful resort setting.  OHM learned long ago from their Malaysian affiliates and customers a motto they have since lived by “we work hard and we play hard”. OHM wanted to offer not only a value packed two and half days but also a relaxing and enjoyable meeting in a setting offering a variety of activities to meet anyone’s needs. From tennis, golf, horseback riding to a casino and entertainment theater with headliner singer and comedic entertainers.  The consensus of the attendees was similar to the comment made by Karl Vogelsinger of BVI Precision in Pennsylvania who has been a client of OHM for 14 years “This was time well spent with an array of useful Presentations enabling me to better support the OHM community at my company”

OHM has made and holds true to claims of being on “bleeding edge” technology. 

The reason for OHM’s continued success to provide state of the art technology and advanced applications is largely in part to the OHM web-centric developer toolset, (WADE), which is also marketed to other developers to launch their products to a totally web-centric environment. OHM’s toolset sets the bases for a truly rules and code based system where the investment of the program logic is totally protected but still allowing for personalization of screens, reports and forms to each installation.  Every year OHM releases a major roll out and every four months publishes new fixes or enhancements that have been made at the request of the many users.

OHM continues to grow the product including vertical integration to their main ERP business back-end. Released at this User Group Meeting was the product announcements of a new intergraded or stand alone module of Contact Decision Management, a broader Executive Information System and a Retail Point of Sale (POS) system.  All in total OHM rolled out six new product releases, major enhancements to the base product and brought in presenters to compliment the industry and technology needs of any system user today. IBM, Steve O’Neal from Special Lab Service, U2 division provided two impacting presentations one on Optimization of your system for maximum performance and find tuning and the not to be missed “back up” from the most economic simple approach to seven levels of options to meet your company size, needs and budget. Andrew Hughes, President of Designing Digitally offered a fantastic review of power and possibilities of your website to promote your product branding and getting to the right audience.

In attendance from OHM where a core OHM Team each with the company 14 to 28 years. “ In today’s world of technology positions OHM contributes the retention and dedication of their team due to the aggressive and progressive approach to the software application development in the industry.” This comment and ,“At OHM our customers are not the top priority, they are the only priority”, was noted by Catherine Anbil, VP of OHM Systems.
