Exact Software Offers Small Businesses a Simple Solution to Recession Pressures

MIDDLETON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Exact Software™, the leading provider of solutions that help businesses better serve their customers by integrating their organization through optimized processes and structured critical knowledge, today announced that the company has expanded its Exact Business Made Easy^TM solution to the Americas. Business Made Easy gives small businesses the power of Exact's award-winning Synergy software in economical, pre-configured templates that decrease implementation and training requirements. It helps companies manage everyday activities in critical business areas, including accounting, human resources, sales and marketing. Offered at an attractive price point, Business Made Easy can be deployed quickly to help US businesses work through the uncertain economic climate.

Originally designed to help smaller companies meet the same European Union standards as their larger counterparts, Business Made Easy can be adapted to each environment, giving it a competitive advantage over small point solutions that force companies to change the way they operate. Beginning with an in-depth interview with each client, Exact Software pre-configures the solution based on existing business processes. This approach reduces program installation and implementation time as well as fosters high user adoption rates.

With seamless integration to Microsoft Office, Business Made Easy allows companies to continue working with their existing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and Outlook email, as well as take advantage of the document security, project management, and team collaboration features found in Exact Synergy. Features include:

• Tight integration to Exact Software's ERP applications, including Macola, Globe, JobBOSS, Alliance, and MAX
• Secure document production and control
• Highly organized project management
• One-stop shopping for business information

"With our expansion of Business Made Easy to the United States, we're offering small businesses a whole new level of business performance technology that until now was only available to large companies," said Mitch Alcon, President, Exact Software Americas. "These capabilities help small businesses thrive in difficult conditions.”
