Michael D’Errico, CIT Group<\/p><\/div>\n

CIT Group Inc. (NYSE: CIT), a leading provider of commercial lending and leasing services, today announced the integration of its FlexAbility solution with ECi\u2019s e-automate software product.<\/p>\n

CIT\u2019s FlexAbility solution gives manufacturers and dealers the ability to structure what they sell, how they charge for it, how invoices are presented, and how data is exchanged with CIT from credit application through account servicing.<\/p>\n

For office imaging dealers on ECi\u2019s e-automate platform who finance customer purchases through CIT, the integration means their software now can automatically communicate data for accounts receivables, usage billing and periodic maintenance charges.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cWe are seeing very strong demand from dealers for technology integration with ECi\u2019s e-automate,\u201d said Michael D\u2019Errico, CIT commercial leader for the Office Imaging team in CIT\u2019s Equipment Finance unit. \u201cIntegration lowers the dealers\u2019 operating expenses and, more importantly, it improves customer experience, particularly for managed print and cost per copy deals powered by our FlexAbility offering.\u201d<\/p>\n

Integration with ECi’s e-automate was a no-brainer, according to D\u2019Errico, given its pervasiveness among the dealer community. The ability to push data through with no human intervention, and the convenience of FlexAbility handling all of the billing in a single invoice, enhances the value proposition. CIT also collects the money, expeditiously, adding to the convenience while lowering the dealer’s operating expense.<\/p>\n

Given its no-touch process, FlexAbility removes the error variable that is accompanied by human intervention.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe stay focused on trying to drive revenues for dealers, lower the opex and improve the customer journey,\u201d D\u2019Errico added.<\/p>\n

Nearly 100,000 commercial financing customers are serviced through the FlexAbility solution, including vendors in the technology and industrial markets.<\/p>\n

\"\"The Equipment Finance unit is part of CIT’s Business Capital division and works with manufacturers, franchisors, distributors, resellers, dealers and systems integrators to finance their equipment, software and services to commercial customers.<\/p>\n
