Cedar Rapids, Iowa, March 25, 2019 – Ideal Computer Systems, a leading industry-specific dealership software vendor in North America, is pleased to announce that its General Manager, Ajay Thakur, has recently participated in a Business Management System Software and Website Services Q&A for Outdoor Power Equipment (OPE) magazine.
In the Q&A, Thakur discusses the company’s current trajectory and latest industry trends. He also addresses the fact that Ideal’s parent company, Constellation Software Inc., acquired c-Systems Software Inc. – Ideal’s biggest competitor.
“Ideal and c-Systems represent the largest and most capable dealer network in the outdoor power equipment industry,” says Thakur in the Q&A. “Through our combined efforts, we are excited to provide innovation, new capabilities and operational efficiencies to these dealers, so they can continue to successfully differentiate themselves from big-box retailers.”
In addition, Thakur talks about the release of Ideal’s new Dealer Insight Report & Trends (DIRT) tool, which allows dealers to measure their business performance and see how they compare to their peers across the country.

Thakur states that the biggest focus for the company is on mobile applications and analytics tools like DIRT.
“Like many businesses today, OPE dealers are looking to leverage the latest tools to make themselves more efficient and accessible to their customers,” says Thakur. “This in turn will help them compete against big-box retailers and online juggernauts like Amazon more effectively. After all, big data and convenience are some of the biggest factors behind Amazon’s success. OPE dealers see that, and they want the same.”
