"We appreciate the opportunities DC has created for our distributors through the use of DC's website and e-Tools. As a supplier, it is sometimes a challenge to update and maintain multiple portals with data, images and promotions. DC has made this a very easy and manageable process. Any time I need assistance or have questions with regards to our login side to the DC site – I know I can depend on our rep to get me the answers I need."

"Last year, we introduced a Canada-specific pricing schedule. When we determined we needed a website for this, we thought, “Who better to go to than DistributorCentral?” Setting up the new website with our own custom design was straightforward and practically effortless, and our Account Manager was quick to provide answers to any questions that arose.

Adding items to the new website was as simple as adapting current products from our standard catalog.

We’re quite pleased with the process, the results, and the service!"

I simply login, and click the link; before I know it, I have an email with all my data. Product Data Export saves me time-no need to recreate product spreadsheets, it’s all right there!"

“Since the time ButtonStar started with DistributorCentral, we have grown in many ways. Personally, I believe that a lot of our growth stems from the time-saving features, and excellent exposure we receive from DC. The web design tools are terrific, making website development and maintenance more efficient. The order-management system makes life easier for all of us, from our customer service department, to the shipping department, and everything in between. Not to mention, anytime I run into a problem, or have questions regarding technical issues, I'm always given a quick and accurate response. These guys really know their stuff.”

“DistributorCentral is without a doubt one of the easiest platforms to work with in all of the industry.

In doing search engine “optimization”, marketing and graphics for several prominent industry suppliers, I’ve found DistributorCentral to have a knowledgeable, friendly and very responsive staff as well as easy to work with tools. They have a significant market share of Distributor following in the industry, and experience has shown me that Suppliers using DistributorCentral to its full capacity can realize new orders and sales inquiries that far outweigh the member costs.”
