We have been working closely with RTG since their development. As a previous ARS v6 customer for 15+ years, we were excited to upgrade to AXIS when it was available. The RTG team did a great job of helping us through the conversion, now a little over 1 1/2 years ago. Since the conversion, they have been very responsive to our issues and willing to consider our modification suggestion. Although today the AXIS program isn’t perfect, we feel it is superior to the existing competition and will be even better once the pending enhancements are completed. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a new or different software program to seriously consider AXIS.— Rex Gore, President & CEO, Black Wing Shooting Center
