Sage MAS 500 Roadmap Reveals Renewed Commitment to Quality on the Horizon

Monday, March 29, 2010 by Julie Stankey

In their recently released product roadmap for MAS 500, Sage detailed how the changes coming to the product over the next 33 months will support their two main product strategies:

• Provide more “Value for the Maintenance” Dollars
• Focus on Quality and Upgrades

In an effort to provide more value to existing users so that they are getting the very most for their maintenance dollars that they can, Sage is planning to:

• Implement enhancements that were rated as high priorities by customers
• Commit to releasing regular product updates
• Release a financial reporting solution that will serve as an alternative to FRx

Sage’s focus on upgrades and quality extends beyond the MAS 500 product.  They are committing to develop better educated and more highly certified consultants and resellers so that their customers feel more confident that they are getting the highest possible level of service and support.  Additionally, Sage is improving the quality of the user experience through reducing the impact of upgrades on customizations so that any new features and functionality are more readily accessible.   The focal point for product enhancements will be in the areas of manufacturing and distribution functionality.
