Testimonials
Hear from our clients that are using Steel Manager III to transform their businesses.
We knew replacing our in-house legacy system developed over 40 years, was not going to be easy. We searched the globe looking for a provider who understood steel and all of the idiosyncrasies of; rolling tolerances, traceability and multiple units of measure, which could take that complexity and make selling simple and fast. We believe we have partnered with that company.
Kevin Smaller
Group General Manager at Southern Steel Group
When we decided to change our software the other software systems we had looked at were so rigid you couldn’t get around anything, when 4GL did their demonstration, they showed us they could give us what we needed. We will do multiple value-added processes to materials. Handling a long product compared to a plate or sheet product are two completely different processes that we perform each day. Instead of us having to think about how we might adjust our processes to fit the software, Steel Manager III makes jumping between processes easy to manage. 4GL Solutions adapted to us, not the other way around—so we were able to switch over to the new platform without missing a beat.
Dave Harris
General Manager at Penn Stainless Products Inc.
Specialty Metals spent four years looking for a new ERP system before coming to the conclusion that Steel Manager III was a great fit for Specialty Metals Corp. With 40 years of providing metal distribution and value-added services to our customers, we took our time to find the ERP system that would best fit our needs.
The real time inventory tracking, powerful pricing matrix & 4GL’s willingness to be flexible in meeting our needs continues to prove to us that we made the perfect decision in our partnership. They provide amazing support, customer service, and their SM3 software is well thought out, and makes selling metal enjoyable. Information at your fingertips, in a very professional manner.

President at Specialty Metals Corp
I have been dealing with 4GL Solutions for over 5 years now, I really like the Steel Manager III software and also like the fact they are constantly updating the software to suit their client’s needs. Customer service is helpful, very responsive and positive to questions and concerns. I would recommend SM3 to anyone who is looking for a custom fit software program for their metal company.

Steel Manager III has been an important tool for us to grow our business and to help our sales and warehouse staff be more efficient, now and into the future.
Gregg Cousins
President at ASA Alloys
With no exaggeration we tripled our sales dollars, and more than tripled our volume, since Ni has been dropping. Although we added personnel in the warehouse to handle the increased volume because of Steel Manager III, no office staff was added.
