Sage is rebranding most products in its portfolio to be consistent with their naming conventions worldwide. However, there may be some confusion as, for example, Sage has a product in the UK called Sage 100 ERP and what we know as MAS 90 in US today will become Sage 100. The two products are completely different but Sage’s hope is that they are different customer sets and the confusion will be minimal….
We in Asia need not be concern about the confusion as we have only one (1) product that is Sage Accpac name change.
Sage ERP Accpac becomes Sage 300 ERP
Old Name New Name
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sage ERP Accpac 100 Sage 300 Standard ERP
Sage ERP Accpac 200 Sage 300 Advanced ERP
Sage ERP Accpac 500 Sage 300 Premium ERP
The other product will be Sage ERP X3, newly introduced to our market.
This rebranding shouldn’t have much effect on our clients, but clearly you may be surprised to see these new names and new terms. Please call us if you have any questions about this.
--------------------------
A strategical move by Sage to bring down the acquired products in to their own kitty and make them known as Sage product.
ReplyDeleteLong expected move, though will have little confusions with existing / new cusotmers, it will settle down well in future. I still do not see a big relevance on the tag of 300 as these kind of numbering system for products do not carry a big value in the minds of customers.
