The Winning Solutions: Best Industry Solution — Winner: Epiphany, Inc. (Houston, Texas) Built on NetSuite, dNet has been customized with a complimentary industry-specific quoting tool to meet the needs of audiovisual professionals. The solution allows customers to standardize their operations on industry-best practice processes for quoting, managing and billing for complex projects.
