Oct 16, 2019

According to Forbes EDI is Cool again and the better question is how did it become uncool? At Effective Data we offer VAN Services and EDI Cloud solutions that are second to none and we understand that there is more to EDI than transmitting and receiving formatted data with your trading partners. The transmission system and communication protocol you choose have a direct effect on processing transactions effectively. Effective Data’s VAN, AS2, HTTPS and SFTP services assure you safe, secure, reliable and fast communication, no matter what format of data is being transferred.
