Chemvulc and the Sage Evolution Mobile Applications for iPad 

Using iPad and the Sage Evolution Mobile Application to provide Quality Customer Service. 

“The iPad has been an amazing tool in business and we can’t imagine how we operated without it. We implemented it across our entire sales team and we have never looked back.”

Sage Evolution Mobile was built on the knowledge that access to business information on-the-go is fast becoming critical. Since it’s origins in 1977, Chemvulc has fast become a strong contender in the tyre industry both nationally and internationally. With three production facilities situated on the western industrial outskirts of Johannesburg, Chemvulc manufactures specialised tyre materials for repairing tubes, passenger, truck and OTR (off the road) tyres. A family run business, Chemvulc seeks to provide a high quality standard of product and customer service. As a result, when the company needed the perfect sales support platform and business intelligence tool to reflect its high-quality brand, they turned to iPad and the Sage Evolution Mobile applications.

Sage Evolution Mobile was built on the knowledge that access to business information on-the-go is fast becoming critical to remaining competitive. With the demand for a sales orientated mobile application for iPad coming directly from their customers, Sage developed Sage Evolution Mobile. The apps aim to make the sales process and the assessment of business data simpler and easier from anywhere at anytime. With the use of iPad and the Sage Evolution Mobile applications by management and sales sales staff on the ground, Chemvulc has been able to connect streams of data, eliminate a great deal of paper and simplify their sales process signi cantly so that they can focus on what’s most important – the customer. 

“iPad has presented a lot of opportunities. It has saved an enormous amount of time and we have increased our ability to call on customers. We have gotten to the point where our reps can take the order at the speed of speech. And that’s unique, because you can’t write that fast.”
