General Consultant Discussion

Just curious as to the rest of the groups thought. For the last month the 100c pricing is equal and includes the SI Designer with Gold Support. Seems to me we get our money much later (than renewing through our company) and it is a matter of a year or so before Sage announces we get a 2 year only payout (or the like because they all renew direct) and we are no longer needed to maintain the relationship when the software stops working on refusal of renewal.

Larry, was that a negative comment? Aren't we looking at the bigger picture of the Global Partner Program with the details not coming out until late 2017? Based on past performance and surprises, I'm not really sure what to expect.

I just sat through a half day Acumatica 6 launch. In the hotel before I went to the launch there were two Acumatica customers talking about how they dropped MAS500 for Acumatica. At the launch, there were two or three customer success stories. At least one of the success stories used a long-time Sage partner as the VAR. I suspect the success story was quite possibly a Sage migration. I think this is what Sage has to look forward to -- the ghost of XMAS future
