General Consultant Discussion

Congrats on your semi-retirement, @Mary Jo Krueger! It's been a pleasure knowing you. Best wishes for what comes next. 

Mary Jo - best wishes! It has been great having you in the group and at our meetings! I must admit to being in disbelief that you (or anyone ) would want to leave this fascinating world of Sage 100.

Just think of what you're missing.

The 32-bit vs 64-bit show is about to start and I'm sure there will be more opportunity for you to fix a publisher bug or two.

And if you can't wait until the main event, Sage Connect has just fired up the marketing engines and you could spend more non-billable time in your day talking to confused customers who are asking "but how does the customer make a payment again"  and explaining why there will be a consulting charge to setup the "Free" tool that Sage "gave" them.... and last but not least it's always sad to see another experienced Sage 100 consultant who knows the difference between Sage 100 and Sage 100 Contractor leave ... because so far as I can tell the customers don't know (and I'm unsure the publisher does either ).

PS - And don't say where you heard this but if they haven't already I bet they'll bring back the "migrate to subscription from perpetual" at zero additional fees which was always a favorite of mine only because (a) publisher said it was "never coming back" and (b) that mysterious credit seems to just hang around out there somewhere on the cloud. 

Best of luck!

Congrats Mary Jo! It will be good to be focused on matching grout color to tiles instead of this stuff you've been doing for the last X years.

Enjoy @Mary Jo Krueger!  When I retire, I want to do interior design.
