Local Company Offers Free Software, Employee Volunteers, to Help Small Businesses Rebuild
| Source: Sage
ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwire - October 6, 2009) - In the wake of the recent devastating floods
around Atlanta, Sage announced that it is offering free copies of Peachtree
Accounting to help small businesses impacted by the flooding to get back on
their feet.
Additionally, Sage employees will be volunteering in the community,
assisting small businesses with their cleanup and rebuilding efforts.
"We want to get the word out around the Atlanta metro area: we're here to
help small businesses if they need it: by assisting with their cleanup and
rebuilding efforts, by giving them Peachtree Accounting to help get their
business back on track as soon as possible, or both," said Connie Certusi,
SVP and general manager, small business accounting solutions, Sage. "Our
Peachtree business was born here and grew up around Atlanta, and we're
happy to give our neighbors a hand."
For any small business that was already using Peachtree, Sage will replace
it with the corresponding 2010 version. For any small business that wasn't
using Peachtree to manage their accounting, Sage will provide a not for
resale copy of the multi-user version of Peachtree by Sage 2010 Complete
Accounting free of charge, to assist them in rebuilding their business.
Peachtree offers small businesses the ability to invoice customers, track
payments, create reports, and manage inventory. It also provides real-time
alerts on a variety of key financial indicators; module-level password
security; an internal accounting review; and 100 MB of Peachtree Online
Backup powered by Iron Mountain, which is particularly helpful when small
businesses are hit by unforeseen disasters such as the recent floods around
Atlanta.
How To Get Help:
Small businesses impacted by flooding and interested in either replacing an
existing Peachtree product or in getting a free copy of Peachtree Complete
Accounting to set up their accounting can visit
http://www.peachtree.com/lp/floodoutreach/ between now and October 30th.
Any small businesses in need of volunteer assistance for their cleanup or
rebuilding efforts, please call 770-724-4000.
