BOSTON & COSTA MESA, Calif. (June 16, 2011) – SYSPRO, a global, independent developer of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, announced today that new materials, cost and cash management capabilities within SYSPRO 6.1 are evolving into US success stories. Heralded by customers as a “business saver” and a “market maker,” a SYSPRO customer related an exemplary success story this week at the Grape Escape® analyst event in Boston.

In mid-2010, SYSPRO announced the software breakthrough release with 6 new modules and more than 1,500 new feature, functionality and deployment enhancements designed to navigate and propel small and mid-sized manufacturers and distributors through challenging market conditions. Packed with new visibility, analytical, decision-making and workflow supports, the new release has increased customer uptake 25% higher than anticipated by SYSPRO management and driving SYSPRO into deals with larger organizations.

Dubbed the “Einstein Strategy” by a customer in a phone call to management, the phrase has since been adopted by SYSPRO USA executives as its 2011+ go-to-market strategy. The company is leading its sales and marketing initiatives with Einstein Strategy customer proof points, attesting to its powerful materials, cost and cash management capabilities, which are cited as “SYSPRO=MC2.

  • Expanded Cash management: new tool supports for short and long-term cash scenarios; enhanced visibility of internal/external views on cash usage and inventory redeployment; reaction-centric hot links to financial institutions to respond quickly to cash balances, credit or debt-related changes, etc.
