Kick them when they’re down – aka Why It’s A Great Time To Buy ERP

April 24, 2009 by Wayne Schulz

Mark Chinsky of Clients First has a good article up that points out the time to buy any ERP (accounting software) is now.

That is, of course, assuming you actually need some.

Among the points Mark makes:

Prices are lower than what they were during the good times
Companies actually value (and pay attention to) your business rather than trying in vain to juggle many different projects and allocating resources only to the biggest jobs
Projects being completed under budget and on time (what a concept!)

How can you take advantage of this downtrodden economy?

If you’re an existing Sage MAS 90 or MAS 200 user – consider upgrading to Sage Extended Enterprise Edition. Some users (depending upon when you bought) are eligible for massive savings on maintenance. Read more about the Sage MAS 90 or MAS 200 EES deals here.
Purchase consulting time in blocks. Many consultants (us included) are not open to discounting rates on short term projects (typically requiring much more skill). However for long term projects of 40 hours or more – most consultants will sell you a discounted block of prepaid hours (the key word is prepaid). We sell 40 hour blocks at about a 25% savings provided that the hours are prepaid. Check with your local Sage Business Partner to see if they do to.
Take advantage of MAS 90 and MAS 200 promotions. These come out quarterly. A good Sage Business Partner can separate the perpetual promotions (those running every quarter despite the warning that they expire) from the truly great deals.

MAS90 & MAS200 Promotions for Spring 2009 Full Detail

April 2, 2009 by Wayne Schulz

Hot off the presses are the following pricing promotions in effect through 6/30/2009. These MAS 90 and MAS 200 specials apply only against product (no discounts are taken off maintenance) and may generally not be combined with other offers.

When looking at any accounting software don’t be fooled into thinking that initial purchase price should be your main consideration. You should be thinking about whether the software will meet your need, if the consultant has adequately assessed your need, and if all the add-ons they’re recommending have been thoroughly researched.

We see an increasing number of companies buying software because of some fancy quarter end sale/promotion or price cut.

That’s fine if you know exactly what your doing. But many times neither the customer or the consultant know (and shouldn’t at least the consultant have an idea?)…
Do your research and talk to users of the software you are considering purchasing. If you’re unable to find people to speak with — that’s your cue to reconsider what you are buying.
