RIP Scanco PM2000 (ACS Group Prop Mgmt) Final Version is 2023.1

  • 1.  RIP Scanco PM2000 (ACS Group Prop Mgmt) Final Version is 2023.1

    FYI - I was just informed by Scanco Support that 2023.1 will be the final version for PM2000 (formerly ACS Group Property Management) They currently show 2021.2 as the most current version for download, but he said versions 2022 and 2023 are available.I assume you need to ask for it.

    Anyone have any other information on this?

    I don't think we have any clients using this product.  Are you saying they did not notify you as the ROR for the client, of this decision?  (I'm not surprised, just disappointed.)

    @Madeline Stefanou, Correct. I only found out because the new keys weren't working because they had generated them for the wrong version. That was also when I found out that 2022 and 2023 were available, even though there is no download link on their site for either. So frustrating.

    Is anyone aware of any possible Property Management (PM2000) replacements for Sage 100?  I believe they were pretty much the only game in town.

    @Greg Stiles, do you happen to know how long Scanco will be supporting v2022 and v2023?

     @Brett Zimmerman I don't but I am not holding my breath and prepping my clients to start researching alternatives.

    From Juston Jones, Director of Support at Scanco:  Our official PM 2000 Sunset announcement was vague, v2023.1 is the last release. 

    • PM2000: We will make it compliant with 2023.1 and will sunset it in 2025.

    We will continue to follow the standard Sage Supported Versions, so release minus 2. Once 2025.1 is released we will cease all support officially for PM2000. 

    Oh, he also mentioned, regarding replacement options:  We’ve looked and asked Sage if there were any Property Management software similar but we did not find any. I will continue to look and let you know.

    Well, my experience has not been that good.  My customer was in v3.61 and finally decided to upgrade to version 2022.  No one at Scanco has been able to provide training or even provide me with a list of file structure so I can create some Crystal Reports.  If anyone finds a replacement...please let us know...

    I have someone on 2019 that may upgrade to 2023.1.  Does anyone know if Ron J and/or Ron C are still around?

    On my recent request for support…it has been either Chris Olson or Jared Stirz.  Neither one of them could help.  On December they told me Ron J was out on leave…not sure if he is back

    @Madeline Stefanou good to know.  The last time this client upgraded, they had to do some program fixes that I hope got incorporated into later versions.

    I believe this is the latest Property Management manual that exists (v2013).  Near the end is a little information on the PZ files.

    FYI - Ron Chompf is still around as I recently connecting him with a third party Property Management add-on developer for SAP Business One.  I thought PM2000 was a good program when I sold it a very long time ago and that Ron had good industry knowledge for the developer.  I wonder if he would be interested in supporting or getting the source code back?

    Didn't Ron Chompf and Darrin both go to work for Sage Intaact?
