Sage MMS  - Driving Your Business Forward

If you were thinking about updating your current accounting system then our Sage MMS seminar was the place to be this past week at the Burhill Golf Club. Delegates were given a free opportunity to learn about a powerful and highly functional system that is both flexible and user-friendly. 

The aim of our educational seminar on Sage MMS was to show businesses one option for an accouting system that grows with increasing daily operations.  Companies need to assure themselves that they can handle expansion of the business easily and smoothly without deterioration in the quality of service that might result in loss of business. 

Demonstrated by our good friend and Sage partner, Debbie Clarke from CPiO Ltd., this solution based on the latest technology using the Microsoft .NET platform and SQL database provides businesses with fast access to highly secure data while producing timely management reports.  

After the presentation, delegates were then treated to a sneak preview of an upcoming ITA seminar featuring our Customer Relations Management (CRM) solution called SalesNotes.  Accessing live information via the wireless Internet connection, our colleague Ed Ruck-Keene of Tactic Solutions, exhibited the simple functionalities of updating contact information, recording actions against prospective clients and building templates for marketing campaigns.

Important to the health of any company, the maintenance of customer relations is key and without a strong system to update those records and without an accounting solution that provides real-time data, businesses will never know if they're ahead or behind of the competition.
