With a burst of enthusiasm, Arxis Technology, which has a pretty good reputation around the Sage community, has signed on as a reseller of SAP's Business By Design. And David Cieslak, one of two Arxis principals, said the product "is truly impressive. It's not just ground up ERP software. It is truly a whole different way of looking at things." Cieslak said the implementation process and methodology is built into the software, and he believes that SAP has handed the product over to "whole different team and saying we want it to be successful and we aren’t taking no for an answer."

ACTIVANT SHOWS MODEST IMPROVEMENT
- Thursday, 12 August 2010

- Written by mark
Activant Solutions, which sells specialized ERP applications, came out of the third quarter ended June 30 with a slight uptick in revenue on a 56.5-percent increase in net income, the later helped out by a $6.2 million after tax gain on the sale of its tools business. There was also a 4.2-percent decline in operating revenue. But still there was a big bright spot with systems revenues rising to $30 million, an 11.8-percent increase from $26.8 million last year which more than offset services revenue of $6.5 million, which was off just under 3 percent from $62.3 million a year earlier.

CHERCHEZ LE SAGE X3

- Written by mark
The Houston-based Rand Group has become the latest (well that I know of) reseller to sign up for Sage X3. This was announced on July 30, but press releases from resellers sometimes don't come my way. Still, it's interesting because Rand started as a pure Microsoft shop, took on Timberline from the debris field left by the MIS Group in September 2009 and now makes this addition of what's viewed as among the most promising Sage products.

NETSUITE REPORTS PATENT TALKS

- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
There’s nothing more to the information posted in NetSuite’s 10Q for the second quarter ended June 30 than one very general paragraph. But the way it’s written that has me believing this could prove to be very interesting. In the words of the document, "A large technology company has written us a letter alleging that we infringe some of their patents. We have subsequently met and discussed these patents with that party and they have requested that we negotiate a license for them of such patents and other patents within their patent portfolio."

FACEBOOK PAGE (MINE) HACKED
- Thursday, 12 August 2010
- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
The 257 friends I currently have on Facebook were startled to get an offer of a free iPod from me (sorry, only one per customer). Of course, I don't deal in volume and that must have happened right before I tried to get back into Facebook and I was notified my account had been suspended for suspicious activity. This must spread itself through from one person’s friends list to the lists of those friends, and so on; the way some viruses will email themselves to everybody in the Outlook contact database.
