Upgrades to Mid-Market ERP and Business Management Solutions Enhance Integration, Visibility and Data Security
ANDOVER, Mass. – December 12, 2005 – Exact Software™, a leading provider of solutions that connect the people, processes and knowledge essential to an organization, today announced the availability of new features and enhancements to Exact Macola® ES, the company’s mid-market ERP solution, and Exact e-Synergy®, its award-winning business management solution.
Based on input from Exact Software customers and partners, Version 360 incorporates new functionality that improves ease-of-use and information management, allowing mid-market companies to generate greater value from Exact’s core product offerings. For instance, Version 360 of Macola ES provides capabilities for improved cash flow, more reporting flexibility and enhanced data security. The ERP solution also includes a new CRP Infinite Capacity Reporting Module that allows users to conduct reporting in machine hours and man hours, by work center, by period, providing greater visibility into potential production bottlenecks.
“In order to gain a competitive advantage, companies are looking for powerful, easy to use solutions that drive operational efficiency and improvements to the bottom line,” said Christopher Lenzo, director of products and operations at Exact. “With the enhancements to Version 360, Exact is empowering businesses to improve information access, better manage business processes and reach new levels of efficiency throughout the entire organization, from the shop floor to the front office.”
Exact e-Synergy is a proven business management solution that facilitates real-time collaboration and information exchange throughout the entire value chain – employees, customers, partners and suppliers. Version 360 features enhancements that tighten account security, improve communication and allow for a greater degree of customization of e-Synergy’s look and feel.
Additional upgrades include:- vCard synching to facilitate the transfer of resources and contacts from e-Synergy to Microsoft Outlook
- The ability of users to click the MSN Instant Messenger ID on an e-Synergy resource card to initiate a chat session with an employee, customer or supplier.
- 13 different themes and style sheets to customize the look and feel of e-Synergy’s intuitive, Web-based user-interface
- Creation of multiple requests from distribution lists
“The ‘reach factor’ of enterprise software solutions is critical to the success of today’s extended enterprise,” said Lenzo. “In addition to centrally managing all of an organization’s information and business processes, Version 360 improves the ability of employees to communicate and collaborate with all external constituents, including customers, partners and suppliers.”
