★★★★★ TESTIMONIAL FROM A HAPPY ORION CUSTOMER
We are a Motorcycle Dealership located in Dunedin and have been using Orion for 23 years which is a testament to its effectiveness within our business.
The way Orion integrates our business divisions such as our workshop, parts department, sales & accounts ensures we have overall visibility at any given time which is essential for day to day operations.
Orion provides a wide variety of easy-to-use reporting tools which means we have a high-level view of profitability and sales margins, as well as any daily reporting required to make sure we are on track.

★★★★★ TESTIMONIAL FROM A HAPPY ORION CUSTOMER
Having used the Orion software system for our two businesses’ situated in Nelson and Blenheim for the past few years, we have found that it works effectively and efficiently to meet our business operational needs. We had previously attempted to work with other ranges of software which we tried to adapt to our Workshop & Retail operations, but this was both unmanageable and limiting.
After exploring extensively other options we have never regretted making our decision to use Orion and remain impressed with the product and the support we get from Orion. We remain happily satisfied with its ability to do as we want. At Machinery Repairs, we see a major strength coming from the software partners chosen by ORION and remain extremely confident in the whole package offered.
ORION has our 100% support & advocacy!!

★★★★★ TESTIMONIAL FROM A HAPPY ORION CUSTOMER
Having used the Orion software system as a Motorbike Dealer for the last 4 years. With a staff of 9 people, we have found that it works effectively and efficiently to meet our business operational needs.
The separate modules for the Parts, Service, Sales, On Farm Servicing and Accounting departments are all integrated and this gives us clarity across all aspects of the business. This also enables us to draw down on the department reports on a daily basis, which gives us a clear idea of what is currently happening across the business.
The Orion System also enables us to prepare the financial documentation for our accountant through an easy, quick and efficient process. Saving time and money.
Orion has developed a reliable support system, where questions can be answered through a phone call and for the more difficult issues the customer support team will dial into your computer and work with you, through the issue. We have always found the staff to be friendly and helpful and usually always available to answer your questions. This is included in the monthly subscription and it gives you the security that for any mistakes you may make, there is always someone out there to help you put it right.
We would recommend Orion as a Software System.

★★★★★ TESTIMONIAL FROM ANOTHER HAPPY ORION CUSTOMER
Having been an ORION user since Jan ’17, it is fair to say I am an extremely strong advocate !
As a major South Island marine dealership located here in Blenheim, we had previously attempted to work with another well-known range of software (MYOB) and we tried to constantly adapt this to our Workshop, Retail & Yard operations. This was both cumbersome and limiting.
Prior to instigating ORION we explored it extensively and remain nothing short of impressed with the product. We remain VERY comfortable with its ability to do exactly as we want and whilst a little unforgiving at times, if users follow processes correctly, I have found very few flaws in the system, its processes & its reporting.
At M & O, we see a major strength coming also from the software partners chosen by ORION and remain extremely confident in the whole package offered.
Put simply, ORION has my 100% support & advocacy!!

We have been using Orion software for about 6 years now and have found it to be a very valuable tool for our business.
As a Motorcycle Dealership it is key to be able to link transactions between departments and Orion does this with ease, therefore allowing us to get true costs in each department.
The reporting tools are invaluable too and give you a great insight into margins and profitability.
It is also handy to have Beva located in Christchurch to take care of all our IT Needs.
Kind Regards

The Orion Accounting Software package is ideally suited to a Workshop and Sales environment.
The system helps refine the internal processes within the Dealership and makes accessing information easier. Like any software it has its advantages and disadvantages but has helped drive profitability within the Sales and Service side of our Business.
