New software integrator to the NZ market

Expanding on its drive to provide not just software but also all the necessary backup and technical upgrades demanded by the cabinet-making industry, Planit has added an integrator to its ranks.

Terry Hay is covering the New Zealand market from his base north of Auckland.

Intensive training from Planit has seen Hay complete various turnkey installations in Australia and New Zealand as well as standard product training classes and manning of the technical support desk at the company's office in Sydney.

"Understandably, the cabinet making and woodworking sectors in both Australia and New Zealand are apprehensive about making the jump from saws to CNC machines," sales and marketing director of Planit (Australia), Mr Rees Hughes said.

"It can be a daunting prospect to completely change the way your business is running, yet a lot of that fear originated because virtually all software suppliers don't have any level of post sales support or partnership structure.

"But with people like Hay on board, New Zealand companies "“ just like their Australian counterparts "“ now have a good reassurance with his knowledge of the market and technology."
