Sharp Tool!: Logger’s Edge Software is Designed for Logging Businesses (January 2007 edition of the Southern Loggin' Times) |
| Read some of the excepts: |
| After adopting Caribou’s system, one logging company in Virginia was able to eliminate the costs of an outside bookkeeping firm by taking the employee and contractor payment process in house. He insists that he couldn’t do without Logger’s Edge. |
| “Load-by-load, mile-by-mile, ticket-by-ticket, the data are all there. Because they can see their performance week-to-week, I spend much less time answering questions on payday. Plus, I can generate my trucker settlements in about half the time it used to take.” |
| Dasher says using a system like LE is simply a smart business decision. “I used to review my numbers only every two weeks. Now, I review them every two or three days. If a crew’s tons are down, I see it right away and can investigate it immediately.” |
| "Caribou’s support is great,” contends Amy Coleman. “If I call with a question or an issue, I can share my desktop securely with them right over the internet, and they can see exactly what I’m looking at, and take control of my machine if they need to. There’s no need for them to come to us. They provide assistance instantly with their remote support tools.” |

When Loggers Meet Computers: (Winter 2006 edition of the Interior Logger and Trucker Magazine) |
| Read some of the excepts: |
| “The biggest thing for us is that they will tailor the program to meet our needs,” she [Sue Hagarty of Roga Contracting in Kamloops, BC] said. Right now we are facing a lot of big issues, such as the bugs and the resulting light loads. They have helped us and our need to deal with that issue. As well, they understand the diversity within the industry – the Coast is different from the Interior, and the Interior is different from the North.” |

“The fuel rebate reporting system is absolutely excellent,” she [Janice Himech of John Himech Logging of Houston, BC] said. “In fact, it is such a good system that the Victoria taxation branch actually complimented us on it!” "We can reconcile statements and it generates a very professional detailed pay statement that I can attach to my stubs,” Janice said. “I know the truckers really appreciate this.” Janice said the support received from Caribou staff has been “stellar”. |
| Says Theresa Phillips of Pitka Logging in Vandorhoof, BC: "Caribou is always there when I need a hand, either by phone, fax or internet. I often work in the evenings which makes it difficult when I have problems. I had a problem which I needed help with, but was playing phone tag. One of the ladies, (Jennifer), knew that I often work late and went way out of her way to post an extensive “self help” instruction page to You don’t often find support like that.” |
