RMI Corp. recently announced new licensing options for its RMI Advantage customers. The framework for the new structure is based on job responsibility and provides each system user more of the features they need at a reduced cost. Branded as “User Types,” each offering is designed to meet the access and communication requirements of the user and is organized into three distinct types: Office Workers, Mobile LT (Lite) Workers, and Full ERP Workers. These User Types are designed to provide a solution for every user and enable any business to run completely in the cloud.

“By standardizing our Advantage Solution around three user types, we focus on delivering the components the user really needs while reducing the cost,” said Paul Chapdelaine, CPA, president of RMI Corp. “This change helps our customers realize a higher return on their investment by giving all employees the tools they need to be effective.”

RMI’s User Types are inclusive, where each User Type builds upon the previous with the addition of new features.

Office Workers are employees who benefit from information provided by the Advantage Business System but do not need direct access to it. Equipped with the information they need through reports and a full line of business productivity tools — including email, calendar, and related Microsoft Office collaboration tools — Office Workers can make informed decisions to get the job done. This User Type is suited for any worker that does not require the features included with Mobile LT or Full ERP worker types.

Mobile LT (Lite) Workers are equipped with all the productivity tools and reports that Office Workers have, plus access to the RMI Advantage mobile interface. The Mobile LT (Lite) interface is suited for employees that are often on the road and only need limited access to the Advantage Business Solution. Examples include in-shop or road service technicians, warehouse workers, rental technicians or salespeople.

Full ERP Workers are the top tier with access to all the features of both the Mobile LT Workers and the Office Workers in addition to full access to RMI’s Advantage Business System. This user has access to all of the functional areas associated with managing a rental, sales and service business. For a full list of features, visit www.rmiusa.com/usertypes.

Effective April 1, new RMI customers will license Advantage for their staff based on job responsibilities, as a Full ERP Worker, Mobile LT (Lite) Worker, or Office Worker. Existing RMI customers will have the opportunity reduce their monthly costs by converting their current users to the new user type system.

Headquartered in Avon, Conn., RMI Corp. is a provider of enterprise rental, sales and service solutions for mid-market companies in the equipment rental, sales, and service industry.
