Since our old procedure requires a lot of manual work, we only narrowly meet this requirement. For us, Réalta is a big step in digitalization. We highly appreciate Réalta‘s flexibility and openness to continuous process improvements. The extremely high system availability gives us process reliability to be able to serve our customers on time.
