See the Difference | Voices from the Field | What Our Clients Say

“We enlisted EstesGroup to help us transition from Epicor Classic to Kinetic. This project involved uplifting 20 customizations, 32 dashboards, and 6 BAQ reports to Kinetic. Estes has been attentive to our needs, maintaining excellent communication throughout the process. The team includes not only developers but also a dedicated principal consultant and project manager. They efficiently track and manage the project using a shared MS Teams channel and spreadsheet. This setup has been instrumental in keeping us on task, ensuring a unified direction, and facilitating discussions. Despite a tight budget, Estes has adhered to our financial constraints while allowing for project adjustments as needed.”

“Great support! They have a wonderful team. EstesGroup was the missing link for us after 10 plus years of Epicor. They are hosting our server and providing consulting for our full use of the system. Thanks EstesGroup!”


Bryan Provo

President, Alliance Machine, Inc

“The EstesGroup consultants who worked on our implementation were all very knowledgeable about Epicor and knew where to find answers to problems we faced. They kept us on task and we would not have gone live on time without their help. We highly recommend EstesGroup to any company that will be implementing the Epicor ERP system. The Estes consultants provided the tools required to assist us with the lack of internal resources and the cultural changes resulting from a new ERP system. They become an extension of our project team such that it felt like they had a vested interest in the success of the implementation.

EstesGroup completed this effort in 2014 but remains the resource of choice for this client to the present day. Contact us for a confidential introduction to our client and reference if needed.”

“Overall, the Epicor 9 ERP transformed their business. Revenues increased by 50% over the next two years with no increase in headcount, partially due to the reshuffling of duties with increased efficiencies. Operational costs per piece dropped significantly and payback for this project occurred in under two years. Clearly the ERP system was not the entire reason for this growth and improvement, but it was a solid contributing factor.

EstesGroup completed this effort in 2010 but remains the “go to” partner and resource for this client to this day. Contact us for a confidential introduction to our client and reference if needed.”

“The EstesGroup provided all of the necessary and contiguous consulting resources that we needed, including technical training and support along with custom development of the ServiceConnect feed of BOM data. The EstesGroup also provided manufacturing production consulting, financial consulting, warehousing and inventory consulting, business transformation guidance. We relied on The EstesGroup for Project Management throughout, including task / timeline definition, activity reporting, status update, and project management that was critical to reaching the project finish line.

The EstesGroup personnel were an integral part of our ERP transformation team. Achieving our goal of leveraging the power of Epicor 10 ERP was in large part the result of our joint, collaborative team efforts.”


Eric Stratton

Director of Engineering, Rapat, Corporation

“I am extremely pleased with the Epicor consulting services provided by Estes Group. Their expertise in Epicor in the areas of manufacturing, financial, and technical was invaluable to our team and helped us achieve our goal of going live in 7 months from start to finish.  Nancy and her entire team have been excellent to work with. I would highly recommend Estes Group to any company needing assistance with Epicor consulting.”


Carla Wing

VP of Operations, American Flexible Products, Inc.

“Estes Group provides the strategic expertise and consulting services necessary to tackle a variety of complex categories.  In the recent past I have enlisted Estes for Epicor upgrades, project management, equipment purchasing and IT staffing.  Their staff is well trained with broad skill sets.  They are pleasant to work with and customize their approach to fit the unique needs and culture of their customer.  I will continue my relationship with Estes and would recommend their services to all.”


Ann-Marie Laird
