Recently, we had the opportunity to demonstrate our Phoenix ETRM solution to Dr. Gary Vasey, Managing Director of CommodityPoint. We were happy to have the opportunity to provide Dr. Vasey with a demonstration of Phoenix ETRM and even happier with his assessment. In short, Dr. Vasey blogged that from "CommodityPoint's point of view, Phoenix is a very competitive and intriguing new solution".

We are happy to report that Dr. Vasey blogged he was "surprised at the maturity of the software" and went on to describe what he considers unique about Phoenix ETRM: "Phoenix is somewhat unique actually as it has a thin client and utilizes a data warehouse/data mart type architecture. This brings a lot of advantages around managing data and being able to process data and report it." Continuing, Dr. Vasey wrote that what's "even more impressive is the use of pivot table" and "graphs to reinforce the user experience". He was also impressed with our risk functionality, stating that Phoenix ETRM is "quite functionally rich on the risk management side." Read Dr. Vasey's full blog post on Phoenix ETRM.

For those unfamiliar with Dr. Vasey, he is a noted expert on the energy trading, transaction and risk management software industry and, with over 24 years of experience in the energy and utilities industry, is an accomplished industry analyst and thought leader. Dr. Vasey has published more than 500 articles on energy and utility industry trends in a variety of publications, is a regular speaker at industry conferences, and is the co-author of the UtiliPoint expert series books ‘Trends in Energy Trading, Transaction and Risk Management Software - A Primer' and ‘Selecting and Implementing Energy Trading, Transaction and Risk Management Software - A Primer' .

While we appreciate Dr. Vasey's kind words, we encourage you to come see Phoenix ETRM for yourself. We are always happy to provide a no pressure, no obligation demonstration.
