Value-added networks (VANs) are closed-circuit EDI networks to which companies – such as GXS or Ariba – can be connected, and over which data is exchanged via different protocols. To communicate with a company using a VAN, you generally require a VAN of your own, which can quickly lead to high running costs.
ecosio replaces the need for a VAN connection. Using just a single connection to ecosio Integration Hub, messages can be sent to and received from any VAN worldwide. Should a business currently make use of several VANs, ecosio can consolidate these into a single connection.
Central monitoring is also a key benefit, as ecosio will deal quickly and efficiently with any connection issues and technical support needs.
Ecosio supports all commonly used international Value Added Networks as well as connections to EDI providers worldwide. The following list is a small selection of all supported VANs and providers.
For a full overview of your EDI processes, ecosio lets you follow incoming and outgoing EDI messages and their delivery statuses in real time. Stay informed about your message and be notified when it has been successfully delivered to your recipient or handed over to a third party network such as Peppol.
Using ecosio API, the delivery status of your messages can even be accessed directly from your ERP system.
