Software Implementation
Our implementation teams utilize widely-used methodologies fitting for a small and mid-sized company. We practice proactive communication, and spend an appropriate amount of time analyzing requirements, documenting specifications, and including you in key decisions before configuring the system to specifications.
Our industry, software, and business process experience ensures we understand all aspects of the companies we serve. We tailor the implementation and training to the needs of each client. Some are more independent than others, and we can tailor our approach accordingly.
Upgrades
Whether you have an on-premise solution (I.e., Sage 100 or QuickBooks Enterprise), or a Cloud ERP (Acumatica), we provide great attention to details to ensure a smooth transition and adoption of appropriate new features. Cloud ERP solutions tend to include many new features and are much faster to upgrade where our clients can enjoy 1 or 2 upgrades per year on average.
