ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwire - November 2, 2009) - Sage North America today announced the general
availability of Peachtree by Sage - Quantum Manufacturing Edition.
Available from Sage and through its network of Peachtree Certified
Consultants nationwide, this new integrated product solution powered by
Manufacturing Information Systems, Inc (MISys, Inc.) is designed for
manufacturers with up to 250 employees who need easy installation and
setup, light customization, and industrial-strength capabilities at an
affordable price point.
"The new Peachtree Quantum Manufacturing Edition rounds out Sage's
manufacturing portfolio by providing a powerful solution at a very
affordable price and low ongoing total cost of ownership, and is designed
to help manufacturers address the many varied challenges they face daily to
stay ahead of their competition," said Connie Certusi, general manager,
small business accounting solutions, Sage North America. "Our manufacturing
portfolio strategy that includes Sage MAS ERP, Sage Accpac ERP, and Sage
ERP X3, makes Sage an attractive partner for manufacturers because we
support them with scalable, affordable solutions throughout the life of
their business."
Small to mid-sized manufacturing companies face a host of market
challenges; increasing operational and material costs, along with increased
competition from larger firms moving down market and pressure from global
competitors. Many firms are struggling to maintain profitability with
reduced headcount and in the face of inconsistent customer order volume,
making it difficult to predict and keep pace with demand.
The new Peachtree Quantum Manufacturing Edition helps small- to mid-sized
manufacturers face these and other challenges head on, and is ideal for job
shops, custom manufacturers, and make to order and make to stock
manufacturers in a variety of industries, such as electronics, medical
devices, defense manufacturers, medical/control instruments,
transportation, plastics, auto parts, industrial equipment producers, food
industries, and process manufacturers. It provides easy to use core
accounting and manufacturing functionality to companies that need an
out-of-box solution, including inventory control, WIP tracking, multi-level
bills of materials, multi-warehousing, work orders, and other key features,
at a price small manufacturers can easily afford.
Peachtree Certified Consultants are already experiencing success with the
new solution; "What our clients needed was the proverbial champagne
solution on a beer budget, and the Peachtree Quantum Manufacturing Edition
delivers that," said Dave Smith, Peachtree Certified Consultant and
Co-Owner of Phase One Computing Services. "There is no better value in a
manufacturing solution -- it's brimming with must-have features our
manufacturing clients need now, and as they grow."
