The Partners at Cloud Based EDI Solutions have more than five decades of combined experience in implementing on-premises EDI solutions for both large and small businesses; and we specialize in implementing BOTS open source EDI software.

BOTS is an "any-to-any" file translator. It can receive EDI documents inbound and convert that to a customer-defined text file (CSV, XML, etc.) that can easily be imported into vitually any business system. At the same time, it can ingest any text file generated by a company's business system and export it to a defined EDI format for outbound transmission.

Because BOTS is open source, there is NO cost of software acquisition, NO annual licensing fees, and BOTS supports numerous Internet communication protocols including FTP, XML-RC, SMTP, ODBC, and more; so, unless required by a trading partner, the costs of using a VAN for document transmissions can also be eliminated.

BOTS is web-based and platform independent and supports all major EDI standards including Edifact, X12, XML, SAP IDoc, Tradacoms & More. It provides a "BOTS Monitor" GUI interface that can be accessed from any authorized workstation on the company network.

BOTS may be started manually, put on a scheduler, or initiated by another business application and can be configured to send email notifications in the event of errors, and/or archive copies of incoming and outgoing messages.

BOTS has proven to be a highly stable EDI platform that has superior performance and can easily handle large document transmissions and large numbers of transmissions with no difficulty. This makes BOTS highly scalable from small organizations doing only a few transactions per day, to larger enterprises sending tens of thousands of EDI transactions.

Further adding to the power of BOTS, it's mappings are written in a much more concise and easy to understand format than traditional EDI systems making them easily editable by end users.

All of these advanced features packed into an open source application make BOTS the ideal EDI solution for small to medium sized businesses that need to implement Electronic Data Interchange in their organizations.
