Eight of them drove to the Acumatica event in Long Beach to sign up. I think we will see some of the remaining Sage loyalists hedging their bets very quickly. Out of the group, Appsolute sells Sage 100 and X3, and IBS is also a Sage dealer. Acumatica has about nine VARs on this year’s Top 100 Vars. I say about as the final cut is being made today as people who forgot they hadn’t sent form, lost the form, or weren’t sent the form continue to trickle in at the absolute last minute. Among the other true cloud vendors NetSuite and Intacct are running about even and that count definitely depends on some laggard tipping the total toward one or the other.
ACUMATICA PICKS UP N.Y.-AREA VARS Featured
Acumatica has signed new resellers in the New York metropolitan area. It bolsters what the company says was a weak presence in the area. The new recruits include Stratus Global Network Technology and Appsolute Consulting Group, based in New York City; Ezcom Software, a cloud-based EDI provider in Englewood, N.J., and Integrated Business Systems, also housed in New Jersey. CEO Jon Roskill said his company continues to see a stream of Dynamics and Sage VARs that are interested in adding other products. He noted that recently the 90 Minds Group of Sage resellers was having a meeting in San Diego, Calif. that was opposite an Acumatica event.
