The reasons may vary… Some may be experiencing growth that their current ERP solution does not support.

Others may simply want to upgrade to what’s hailed as “best in the market”. Whatever the reasons for replacing your ERP system, the bottom line is there is no better time to make this transition with Consensus.

SAP Business One’s advanced architectural platform delivers unprecedented power, flexibility, extensibility, and openness. SAP Business One will run on Microsoft SQL Server or SAP’s HANA®; which offers true “In Memory Computing”. This means turning data into information at unimaginable speed, giving business owners the ability to drive their business in real time. SAP Business One’s architectural underpinnings also provide a level of openness and extensibility to connect and interact with other systems, enhancements, Microsoft products, etc.

1. INNOVATIVE ARCHITECTURE

WHY IS NOW THE TIME TO SWITCHTO SAP BUSINESS ONE?

Over 60,000 customers (over 1 million users) have chosen SAP Business One not only because of its capabilities and features, but because SAP has made a clear commitment to the SMB market for years to come. The customer requirements and the functional richness required by SAP’s Fortune 500 customers have transcended into the SAP Business One solution. SAP Business One is the “Best in Market” and the new Gold Standard.

With a team that deeply understands the details and intricacies of both MacolaTM and SAP Business One, Consensus has crafted a plan that feels like a "trade-in" of your MacolaTM Licenses, and streamlines the upgrade process to SAP Business One.

4. CUSTOMER MOMENTUM

We have Deployment Options… the choice is yours: If you have been thinking about simplifying things in your IT department, this is the perfect opportunity to move to the cloud. We can deploy SAP Business One in Single Tenant or Multi-Tenant Cloud environment in what is called Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). No longer do you need to worry about updates, security, firewall management, or integrations to other required solutions (i.e. credit card processing, Outlook integration, shipping integration, or other unique sub-systems that you count on, etc.). On the other hand, if an On-Premise deployment makes more sense for your company, this bundled offering is licensed with perpetual software licenses and can be installed on your own server. Once you’re on board, it’s just a matter of choosing between Cloud or On-Premise, and you’re in!

Most ERP offerings in the SMB space are at, or near the end of their useful lives and lack continuous R&D innovation and advancements… SAP Customers drive the development priorities and product direction through monitored and prioritized online enhancement requests with customer voting capabilities as well as annual customer summit meetings. The outcome of this collaboration with customers is a product roadmap that outlines development priorities and functional advancements which support you, the customer. Check out the roadmap! (20-year roadmap) Nobody delivers this kind of innovation, advancement and commitment to the future!

We have included a comprehensive bundled Lease Financing Option which takes the financial “sting” out of an ERP upgrade and implementation.

A Win / Win… Reduced Cost and Reduced Risk!
