PowerCerv Finally Overpowered By The '02 Hurricane Season Part 2: Strengths and User Recommendations
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/29/2002 12:00:00 AM
Although ASA seems to have obtained an intriguing complementary product offering and a modest client base for almost next-to-nothing cost, it has to quickly articulate a clear and assuring message to the market that it can and will execute a strategy for enhancing PowerCerv product lines for a foreseeable future.

PowerCerv Finally Overpowered By The '02 Hurricane Season
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/25/2002 12:00:00 AM
PowerCerv, a long languishing mid-market enterprise applications vendor, having been unsuccessful in its repeated attempt to revitalize itself under own steam, has eventually resorted to bailout by a more financially stable adopted parent.

Data Conversion in an ERP Environment
Joseph J. Strub 10/21/2002 12:00:00 AM
Converting data in any systems implementation is a high wire act. Converting data in an ERP environment should only be undertaken with a safety net, namely a well thought-out plan of execution. This article discusses the guidelines for converting data when considering manual or electronic alternatives.

Agilisys Continues Agilely Post-SCT Part 3: Challenges and User Recommendations
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/16/2002 12:00:00 AM
Still, although it is indisputably better that Agilisys had not stayed any longer under a parent that did not quite fathom its direction, and had even imposed a heavy overhead burden on it to be part of that company, and hindered its growth, the company faces both new and many old challenges.

Agilisys Continues Agilely Post-SCT Part 2: Market Impact
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/15/2002 12:00:00 AM
Agilisys is also leveraging its former parent's pedigree on professional services and outsourcing, the 'Concept to Customer' and 'Early Upgrade Program' being good examples of the company’s focus on customer engaging product implementations and customizations.

Agilisys Continues Agilely Post-SCT
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/14/2002 12:00:00 AM
From Agilisys' fresh start illustrated in new account wins, a profitable quarter, and new product enhancements; the market should expect at least a continuation of the past but more likely its improvement.

Fourth Shift's evolution Within SoftBrands' DemandStream Part 2: Challenges and User Recommendations
P.J. Jakovljevic 10/1/2002 12:00:00 AM
In addition to putting the problems of blending two former independent organizations together behind, the company is still entangled in figuring out how best to bring different technologies and industrial experiences to bear. Further, the new company is left with multiple products whose brand recognition is quite low given recent re-branding effort that may be even more impeded by SoftBrands/Fourth Shift/evolution brand confusion (not to mention the plethora of hospitality products).

Fourth Shift's evolution Within SoftBrands' DemandStream
P.J. Jakovljevic 9/30/2002 12:00:00 AM
With a set of seemingly complementary products and via a strategy of focusing on customers, astute acquisitions of more complementary software companies and a careful deployment of all resources around the world including product development, sales and customer support, SoftBrands hopes to rise from the ashes of its ill-fated predecessor, AremisSoft.

Geac Hopes To See System21 Shine Again Like 'Aurora' Part 2: Market Impact
P.J. Jakovljevic 9/17/2002 12:00:00 AM
Geac appears to have at least learned some hard lessons and it should not fall again in the trap of its former rampant acquisition strategy in a number of unrelated, diverse fields. Further, Geac's strengths today remain its geographical spread, restored financial health, retained level of products’ diversity, and its savvy of industry business process in the chosen vertical sectors. The company seems to have become highly attuned to the needs of the mid-market, with many loyal long term customers currently enjoying considerable service & support attention.
