Mardak Ltd has signed its first client in Northern Ireland.

H&J Martin Ltd is currently a Redsky IT client and has been using Summit 2000 for its accounting and contract management. Following their initial research into alternative systems, H&J Martin Limited shortlisted Redsky IT, Tekton, Coins and Mardak for detailed product presentations.

In addition to standard accounting functionality H&J Martin Limited had some specific requirements relating to their company set up which they were looking to meet. It was also essential that the product they chose could satisfy their multi currency and multi legislative requirements.

From the demonstrations H&J Martin Ltd was pleased to find that Mardak Construction Accounts could meet their main requirements. They made a visit to one of Mardak's existing client sites, E G Carter & Co Ltd who had also previously been on a Redsky IT product (AXiM) prior to moving to Mardak.

Owain Davies, Group Accountant for H&J Martin Limited, said: "We were given a full list of clients by Mardak to select from for our site visit. This enabled us to identify the company that most closely reflected H&J Martin Ltd.

"The Finance Director had many positive comments to make on the system, in particular the versatility of the reporting capabilities and the commitment to customer service that he receives from the Mardak staff."

Having received demonstrations from the 4 shortlisted companies H&J Martin Ltd selected Mardak as the best fit solution. They progressed forwards with more detailed discussions and in depth product demonstrations of Mardak Construction Accounts.
