    Does anyone know of any .Store websites (using E-business Manger) that a prospect could visit to see how a live website might look? I've showed them the ""out of the box"" web pages and I know that these pages can be edited by a web developer, the few customers I have using that product only allow B to B transactions.

    I found a link to a page with several E-business manager user sites, some require a login others are open to the general public. http://www.4ebm.com/customer/

    I'm actually surprised Sage keeps e-Business Manager on the price list.

    I would look at other alternatives. If the end user is serious about an online store, choosing .Store is a bad choice. For example, out-of-the-box, search engines will not be able to index the site for content that is stored in Sage 100. Unless you host it on a web server with 1 Gbps access to Sage 100, it will be very slow. Sage still sells it because it is all free money and marketing can say they have a web solution. There is no development going into it and support for it doesn't exist. Implementing eBusiness Manager will cost more is hard and soft dollars (lost sales) than spending the upfront money for much better solutions. 4ebm's website has no address or phone number. They really believe in being ""virtual."" When you don't post an address, phone number or even an email address, I wonder if you're for real. ISM dropped their eBusiness practice and enhancements.

    I am thinking that Hightower used to mod this suite some. You might try Alnoor's group to see if they continued with any of this.

    thanks for the insight. I'm certainly not pushing the client towards it and hope they will consider alternatives.
