The growing interest in the use of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) has brought many companies in using this form of inter-organizational electronic commerce in past years. Nowadays there are some approaches and opinions discussing efficiency, usage of EDI and mostly, whether EDI is still up-to-date or needed to substitute with another platform instead. Based on these kinds of discussions, we conducted a survey to study the current status of EDI usage. Findings from our survey helped us to understand whether companies in the Czech Republic find EDI adoption as useful and efficient or whether they are in the process of substitution, percentage of companies actively using EDI and if so, then for what purpose is this platform used mainly – which EDI messages are mostly exchanged. This paper is based mainly on the research of Czech and foreign literature, survey filled by particular areas of business in the Czech Republic. Main goal of this paper is to find out the current situation of EDI usage in the Czech Republic.
